Factors to Note Ahead of Q1 Earnings

TD SYNNEX’s fiscal first-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from the steady IT spending environment due to rapid digital transformation. The year-over-year expected increase in the top line suggests revenues from the newly merged Tech Data Corporation business.

Increased demand for hardware and tools, which support remote working, is anticipated to have boosted TD SYNNEX’s revenues during the quarter under review. The pandemic-induced work-and-learn-from-home wave has been driving sales of peripherals, software, communication, networking and consumer electronics products. This impressive demand trend is likely to have been conducive to SNX’s top line during the fiscal first quarter.

Additionally, the lockdown has bolstered the usage of online and e-commerce services globally. Also, the work-and-learn-from-home necessity has been stoking demand for cloud storage. Therefore, data center operators are enhancing their capacities to accommodate the demand spike for cloud services, which is likely to have aided TD SYNNEX’s data center servers and storage solution businesses during the fiscal first quarter.

However, the positive impact of the aforementioned factors might have been partially offset by prevailing supply-chain disruptions caused by the pandemic. Foreign-exchange headwinds are expected to have been an added concern.
