What's in the Offing for Logitech (LOGI) This Earnings Season?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Logitech International (LOGI - Free Report) is slated to report first-quarter fiscal 2023 results on Jul 25.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter fiscal 2023 revenues is pegged at $1.18 billion, indicating a decrease of 10.1% from the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for non-GAAP earnings stands at 82 cents per share, suggesting a significant decline of 32.8% year over year.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate thrice in the trailing four quarters and missed the same once, the average surprise being 12%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up before the upcoming announcement.
Logitech’s first-quarter results are likely to be negatively impacted by the declining demand for personal computers (PCs), the main sales booster for its PC peripheral products. Per the latest Gartner report, worldwide PC shipments declined 12.6% year over year to 72 million units in the second quarter of 2022.
The company witnessed a significant sales decline in several of its product offerings in the last reported quarter. In the last reported quarter, revenues from the Video Collaboration, PC Webcams, Tablet and Other Accessories, Audio & Wearables, Mobile Speakers and Smart Home product categories plunged 37%, 42%, 43%, 37%, 16% and 75%, respectively. A strong comparison with the year-ago quarter is anticipated to have also weighed on LOGI’s sales growth.
The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and industry-wide elevated component costs are anticipated to have negatively impacted the company’s sales during the to-be-reported quarter. Per Gartner, the U.S. and the EMEA regions have already witnessed a 17.5% and 18% fall in overall PC shipments, respectively.
Furthermore, Logitech’s aggressive investment in retail point of sale marketing, along with increased promotional spending, might have weighed on its first-quarter profitability.
