Key Factors to Note

Teradyne’s solid momentum across the Test and Industrial Automation businesses is likely to have benefited its first-quarter performance.

The growing adoption of Universal Robots and Mobile Industrial Robots products across various applications is expected to have supported the Industrial Automation business.

Further, the increasing demand for ultra-wideband might have remained a positive factor in driving the company’s LitePoint business.

Strength in the memory test markets might have been a tailwind for semiconductor test revenues.

TER has been witnessing strong demand in both flash and DRAM in the Memory test business. This is likely to be reflected in the to-be-reported quarter’s results.

Increasing sales in storage test, defense and aerospace are anticipated to have driven System Test group revenues in the quarter under review.

Strong momentum in the commute, industrial and automotive markets is likely to have remained a tailwind.

Yet, the company’s system-on-a-chip business is likely to have contracted during the underlined quarter as TER shifted its 3-nanometer volume production to 2023.

Further, increasing operating expenses and supply chain challenges are expected to get reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
