Product and Financial Highlights September Quarter
Xilinx intends to utilize the May 2016 repurchase authorization of $1 billion in a more deliberate manner over the next several quarters. This program complements the Companys capital allocation priorities which include investing in the business and continuously growing the dividend.
Xilinx recently reached a significant production milestone for the 16nm UltraScale+ portfolio ahead of schedule. Xilinx has now shipped nine unique products to nearly 200 customers in a broad base of markets including automotive, data center and communications.
Xilinx announced the expansion of its cost-optimized Spartan, Artix & Zynq product families targeting a wide range of applications including Embedded Vision and Industrial IoT. Todays Embedded Vision and Industrial IoT applications need to collect, aggregate, and analyze data from a variety of sensors for actionable insights. Whether scaling a multi-sensor cameras functionality on a factory floor, or developing a smart drone with an innovative guidance system based on sensor fusion, designers can take advantage of the Xilinx FPGA and SoC portfolio for part or all of their system needs.
Xilinx announced that Baidu, the leading Chinese language Internet search provider, is utilizing Xilinx FPGAs to accelerate machine learning applications in their data centers in China. The two companies are collaborating to further expand volume deployment of FPGA-based accelerated platforms. Baidu-optimized FPGA platforms are tuned for machine learning applications such as image and speech recognition. The platforms will also be leveraged in Baidus initiative to develop commercially viable autonomous cars.
Last quarter, Xilinx joined forces with Advanced Micro Devices, ARM, Huawei, IBM, Mellanox, and Qualcomm Technologies Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated, to bring a high-performance open acceleration framework, "CCIX" to data centers. Just recently this consortium announced that it has tripled its membership welcoming new members representing silicon providers and ecosystem partners in design, verification, software and systems. In addition, the member companies have aligned to the PCI Express architecture as its first transport layer specification.

Gross margin is expected to be approximately 69%.
Operating expenses are expected to be approximately $245 million including $1 million of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles.
