What to Expect
For the third quarter of 2018, ON Semiconductor forecasts revenues to be in the range of $1.485-$1.535 billion, given its booking trends, estimated turn level and backlog level. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the to-be-reported quarter is pegged at $1.51 billion indicating year-over-year growth of 8.6%.
Further, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 50 cents, representing growth of 66.7% from the year-ago quarter.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for ISG is pegged at $210 million, above $193 million in the prior-year period.
Factors at Play in Q3
ON Semi’s strength in automotive and industrial end-markets is anticipated to be a tailwind. Further, robust demand, adoption and favorable product mix of its diversified product portfolio are key top-line drivers.
Automotive revenues are anticipated to remain strong backed by the impressive demand witnessed by image sensors for ADAS applications, and IGBTs for electric vehicle traction motors in China. Furthermore, new design wins leading to impressive growth in LED lighting business, are expected to bolster automotive lighting revenues.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate of revenues from Automotive end market is projected at $477 million, more than $411 million in the year-ago quarter.
Management anticipates industrial end-market revenues to be down sequentially. However, the Zacks Consensus Estimate of revenues from Industrial end markets is pegged at $396 million, more than $349 million in the year-ago quarter. Sturdy demand of ON Semi’s power modules, image sensors and machine vision is anticipated to drive revenues on a year-over-year basis.
Computing end-market revenues are anticipated to increase on the back of continued ramp in server business. Further, ON Semi is engaging important cloud and server companies, and working on next generation platforms for leading CPU providers. The Zacks Consensus Estimate of revenues from Computing end market is projected at $158 million, more than $157 million in the year-ago quarter.
Robust demand of white goods is anticipated to increase revenues in consumer end-market. The Zacks Consensus Estimate of revenues is pegged at $211 million, higher than $192 million a year ago.
New device models are anticipated to support revenues in communications end market.
Nevertheless, the Zacks Consensus Estimate of revenues from communications end market is pegged at $269 million, lower than $282 million a year ago. The anticipated decline can primarily be attributed to seasonality.
Notably, addition of Fairchild’s offerings has made ON Semi’s product portfolio lucrative but it has also added considerable debt which remains a concern.
ON Semiconductor Corporation Price and EPS Surprise
According to the Zacks model, a company with a solid Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) has good chances of beating estimates if it also has a positive Earnings ESP. The Sell-rated stocks (Zacks Rank #4 or 5) are best avoided.
ON Semi has a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) and an Earnings ESP of -0.24. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Stocks With Favorable Combination
Here are few companies which as per our model have the right combination of elements to post an earnings beat this quarter:
Herbalife LTD. (HLF - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +2.29% and a Zacks Rank #2. The company is slated to report third-quarter earnings on Oct 30.
Allison Transmission Holdings, Inc. (ALSN - Free Report) has an Earnings ESP of +1.68% and a Zacks Rank #2. The company is slated to report third-quarter earnings on Oct 29.
Will You Make a Fortune on the Shift to Electric Cars?
Here's another stock idea to consider. Much like petroleum 150 years ago, lithium power may soon shake the world, creating millionaires and reshaping geo-politics. Soon electric vehicles (EVs) may be cheaper than gas guzzlers. Some are already reaching 265 miles on a single charge.
With battery prices plummeting and charging stations set to multiply, one company stands out as the #1 stock to buy according to Zacks research.
