Let’s see how things have shaped up for the upcoming announcement.

 

Factors to Note

Extreme Networks’ fiscal first-quarter 2024 performance is likely to have benefited from significant demand in its one network and one cloud solutions. This reflects on a strong execution by its field teams, solid partner base, and a competitive differentiated product portfolio.

The company benefits from an expanding clientele that leverages Extreme’s technology to streamline operations and drive business transformation.

Enterprises in different verticals have deployed EXTR’s cloud-managed network and Wi-Fi 6E-ready networks to drive energy savings, improve network performance and fulfill operational needs. These factors are likely to have driven its fiscal first-quarter top line.

An improving supply chain environment and declining lead times are expected to have contributed to Extreme Network’s performance.

Continuous reduction in expedite fees and shipping costs combined with the impact of its pricing actions is expected to have improved Extreme Networks’ margin performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
