Diodes (DIOD) to Report Q4 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Diodes (DIOD - Free Report) is slated to release fourth-quarter 2021 results on Feb 9.
For the fourth quarter, the company expects revenues of $476 million (+/-3%). The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at 476.20 million, suggesting an improvement of 35.91% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
The consensus mark for earnings stands at $1.45 per share, unchanged over the past 30 days and indicating growth of 95.95% from the year-ago reported quarter.
Diodes’ earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 10.04%.
Diodes' fourth-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from high growth markets like the automotive and the semiconductor market. Even among supply chain management issues, Diodes has been increasing loading at its LITE-ON Semiconductor facilities.
Diodes' global manufacturing footprint might have contributed to the to-be-reported quarter's performance. The company’s global manufacturing footprint provides the company capacity to reduce costs, either by adding equipment to existing lines or converting equipment to larger wafers.
These ongoing actions are likely to have supported growth in the fourth quarter and is expected to do so beyond. By the end of 2025, following the strategy to increase global footprint, Diodes intends to achieve long-term target of $1 billion in gross profit by 2025 on $2.5 billion in revenues and 40% gross margin.
Diodes’ expanding portfolio in the automotive market is expected to have helped the company gain traction. This, in turn, is expected to get reflected in the to-be reported quarter's revenues.
Diodes news designs like the in momentum for gate drivers, high-voltage regulators, hall-effect sensors and MOSFET in the brushless DC motors, electric power steering, cooling fans, water pumps, power windows, door locks, infotainment, battery managed systems and advanced driving assistance systems are expected to have helped the company gain new customers. This is likely to have favored the top-line growth.
