The company anticipates first-quarter fiscal 2023 revenues to increase in the range of 2-4% on a year-over-year basis. Non-GAAP earnings are anticipated to be between 82 and 84 cents per share.

Let’s see how things have shaped up for Cisco prior to this announcement.
Factors Likely to Influence Q1 Results
Cisco’s first-quarter fiscal 2023 results are expected to benefit from easing supply chain constraints. The company’s extensive product portfolio and the varied end-user base are also expected to have positively contributed to its top-line growth.
Moreover, price hikes are expected to have somewhat offset inflation, thereby driving fiscal first-quarter top-line growth.
Cisco’s revenues are likely to have benefited from momentum in web-scale, servers, wireless, security and SD-WAN businesses. The company has been benefiting from ongoing investments that its customers are making to rapidly digitize their organizations.
Higher bandwidth requirements by customers are expected to have driven demand for Acacia’s optical solutions in the to-be-reported quarter.
Nevertheless, the fiscal first-quarter results are expected to reflect the lingering effects of COVID-related lockdowns in China as well as the negative impact of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Additionally, challenging macroeconomic conditions and the strong U.S. dollar have been major concerns.
