As recently announced by Keysight, an organizational change has been made to align its service activities with its customers and end markets. Services revenues, which were previously included in the Services Solutions Group (SSG) segment, are distorted and presented in the segment in which the services are provided. Keysight therefore presents its results in three distinct sectors: Communications Solutions Group (CSG), Electronic Industrial Solutions Group (EISG) and Ixia Solutions Group (ISG).
- Communications Solutions Group (CSG)
CSG reported revenue of $623 million in the first quarter, up 25 percent, driven by demand for 5G R&D across the wireless ecosystem, data center related next-generation 400GbE digital test and aerospace, defense and government. - Electronic Industrial Solutions Group (EISG)
EISG revenue grew 13 percent in the first quarter to $257 million, driven by strength in automotive and emerging IoT applications, while the semiconductor market moderated as expected. - Ixia Solutions Group (ISG)
ISG revenue was $129 million in the first quarter, compared with $127 million in the prior year first quarter, driven by network visibility solutions, while test revenue remained inline with last year.
