Will Solid Revenue Growth Boost Qorvo's (QRVO) Q3 Earnings?
Qorvo, Inc. QRVO is set to report third-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Jan 31, after the closing bell. In the last reported quarter, the company delivered an earnings surprise of 35.03%. It pulled off a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 73.89% on average.
The leading provider of radio frequency solutions is expected to have witnessed top-line growth in the quarter despite macroeconomic volatility and stiff competition.
Factors at Play
In the fiscal third quarter, Qorvo partnered with Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd., a global advanced contract manufacturer, wherein Luxshare will assemble and test products for Qorvo in Beijing and Dezhou, China. Per the agreement, Luxshare will take over the operations and assets of each factory, encompassing real estate, manufacturing facilities, equipment and the existing workforce to provide Qorvo with world-class production capacity while expanding its offerings and capabilities seamlessly and flexibly. This is likely to have positively impacted QRVO’s revenues in the quarter.
During the to-be-reported quarter, Qorvo launched QSPICE – a new generation of circuit simulation software that provides power and analog designers significantly higher levels of design productivity through improved simulation speed, functionality and reliability.
QSPICE will facilitate designers to simulate complex digital circuits and algorithms with its unique combination of modern schematic capture and fast mixed-mode simulation features. This, in turn, is likely to make QSPICE an ideal tool to solve the increasingly complex hardware and software challenges faced by system designers. Such innovative products are likely to have resulted in incremental revenues in the fiscal third quarter.
