Read MoreHide Full Article

Another week, another round of quarterly reports. The Q2 cycle has primarily been positive so far, helping us avoid the earnings ‘apocalypse’ many had foretold.

And this week, we’ve got several notable technology companies slated to unveil quarterly results, including Sony (SONY - Free Report) , The Trade Desk (TTD - Free Report) , and Super Micro Computer (SMCI - Free Report) . The tech sector has been a big-time outperformer year-to-date, rebounding nicely after a miserable 2022.

But how does each company stack up heading into their respective releases? Let’s take a closer look.

Sony

Earnings expectations for Sony’s quarter have been lowered by analysts over the last few months, with the $0.94 per share estimate down 4% and reflecting a pullback of 30% from the year-ago period.

The company is forecasted to post $18.6 billion in quarterly revenue, 4.3% higher than year-ago sales of $17.8 billion. It’s worth noting that the quarterly estimate has been revised 3% lower since mid-May, reflecting some pessimism.

Sony posted a sizable beat in its latest release, exceeding the Zacks Consensus EPS Estimate by nearly 40% and reporting revenue modestly ahead of expectations. Shares soared post-earnings but have since given up their gains.

The Trade Desk

Analysts have remained silent for TTD’s quarter to be reported, with the $0.26 per share estimate unchanged over the last several months. The company is expected to report solid growth, with the quarterly estimate reflecting an improvement of 30% from the year-ago quarter.

Revenue is also forecasted to see a notable improvement, with the $455 million Zacks Consensus Estimate suggesting a jump of 21% from the year-ago quarter. The quarterly estimate has been taken modestly higher since mid-May.

The company’s top line has also seen positive revisions over the last few months, with the $2.2 billion quarterly estimate up 20% since mid-May and suggesting a 33% improvement from year-ago quarterly sales of $1.6 billion.

Super Micro Computer reported results that came in under expectations in its latest release, snapping a long streak of positive surprises. Still, shares saw bullish activity following the release, sparking a new uptrend.
