APPLIED MATERIALS INC /DE 8-K

What Happened
Applied Materials, Inc. announced its financial results for the first quarter ended January 25, 2026 in an 8-K filed February 12, 2026. The company furnished a press release with the results (Exhibit 99.1) as part of Item 2.02 (Results of Operations and Financial Condition). The filing notes the information is furnished — not “filed” — under the Exchange Act.

Key Details

• Date of filing: February 12, 2026; quarter reported: ended January 25, 2026.
• Press release containing the results is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.
• The 8-K treats the press release information as furnished (limits certain statutory liability under Section 18).
• Filing signed by Teri A. Little, Senior VP, Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary.

Why It Matters
This 8-K signals Applied Materials has publicly released its latest quarterly earnings and related financial details — essential for investors tracking earnings, revenue, and quarterly results. Because the 8-K furnishes a press release rather than including detailed tables in the filing, investors should read the Exhibit 99.1 press release (and the company’s subsequent 10-Q) for precise revenue, profit, guidance, and segment performance. The furnished status is a legal formality but does not change the need to review the disclosed results before making investment decisions.
