Read MoreHide Full Article

On Semiconductor (ON - Free Report) is slated to release its first-quarter 2024 results on Apr 29.

For first-quarter 2024, onsemi expects revenues between $1.80 billion and $1.90 billion. Earnings are expected in the range of 98 cents-$1.10 per share.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter earnings is pegged at $1.04 per share, unchanged in the past 30 days, indicating a decline of 12.61% from the figure reported in the year-ago quarter.

The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $1.85 billion, suggesting a decline of 5.52% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
 

 

onsemi’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in all the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 6.57%.

Let us see how things are shaping up prior to this announcement.

Factors Likely to Have Influenced Q1 Performance

onsemi’s fourth-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from the increased adoption of its products in automotive and industrial end markets, particularly in areas such as electric vehicles, advanced driver-assistance systems and energy infrastructure.

onsemi’s broad-based strength across industrial, computing, consumer and automotive end-markets for both silicon carbide and insulated-gate bipolar transistor-based products remains positive.

Moreover, the company is winning market share in the automotive segment, thanks to its silicon carbide dominance, as well as intelligent power and sensing solutions.

onsemi's EliteSIC silicon carbide modules increase the efficiency and lower the weight of the traction inverters, extending electric vehicle range and improving performance.

However, softness across all the end markets due to slowing demand and continuing inventory digestion is expected to have hurt onsemi’s top-line growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
