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

Factors to Consider

Amphenol’s diversified business model lowers the risks posed by the volatility of individual end markets and geographies.

Contributions from the acquisitions of Connor Manufacturing, Q Microwave, XMA Corporation, Control Measure Regulation Group, Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings, NPI Solutions, MTS Sensors, Halo, Positronic, El-Cab, Unlimited Services, Cablecon and Euromicron are expected to have aided its fourth-quarter results.

Moreover, acquisitions have expanded its high technology and value-added interconnect product offerings in the diversified industrial market.

However, weakness in the mobile device, mobile networks and IT end-markets is expected to have hurt top-line growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
