Microchip expects net sales to be $1.225-$1.425 billion for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. Non-GAAP earnings are anticipated between 46 cents per share and 68 cents per share.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal fourth-quarter earnings is currently pegged at 57 cents per share, unchanged over the past 30 days and suggesting a 65.24% year-over-year decline.
The consensus estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.33 billion, suggesting a decline of 40.57% year over year.
Microchip Technology Incorporated Price and EPS Surprise
Microchip’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the trailing four quarters and were in line in the remaining two, delivering an earnings surprise of 0.78%, on average.
Let’s see how things have shaped up for the company prior to this announcement:
Factors to Note
Microchip has been suffering from a slowdown in business due to increasing uncertainty, slowing economic activity and an increase in inventory level with customers. Persistent inflation and high-interest rates have been detrimental to the company’s prospects.
Despite these challenges, Microchip’s consistent strength in its analog and mixed-signal microcontroller businesses is expected to have contributed well in the to-be-reported quarter.
MCHP's robust portfolio of its 8, 16, and 32-bit microcontrollers and its widespread adoption is expected to have bolstered MCHP's performance in the fiscal fourth quarter.
Expanding Portfolio Aids Prospect
Microchip significantly expanded its portfolio in the to-be-reported quarter.
MCHP announced its next generation of LAN969x Ethernet switches with Time Sensitive Networking, scalable bandwidths from 46 Gbps to 102 Gbps and a powerful 1 GHz single-core Arm Cortex-A53 CPU.
It launched the MCP998x family of 10 automotive-qualified remote temperature sensors. The MCP998x family is one of the largest portfolios of automotive-grade multi-channel temperature sensors in the industry and is designed for 1°C accuracy at a wide operational temperature range.
Microchip launched the PolarFire SoC Discovery Kit, featuring a quad-core RISC-V processor, 95K FPGA logic elements and a user-friendly design, addressing the demand for open-source RISC-V-based processor architectures and promoting accessibility to emerging technology for engineers at all levels.
It introduced the 3.3 kV XIFM plug-and-play mSiC gate driver, featuring Augmented Switching technology for rapid implementation of Silicon Carbide (SiC) solutions in medium-to-high-voltage applications, streamlining system integration with preconfigured settings and reducing design cycle time by up to 50%.
Moreover, Microchip introduced the 3.3 kV XIFM plug-and-play mSiC gate driver, featuring Augmented Switching technology for rapid implementation of SiC solutions in medium-to-high-voltage applications, streamlining system integration with preconfigured settings and reducing design cycle time by up to 50%.
Microchip launched a family of dsPIC Digital Signal Controller-based integrated motor drivers for efficient, real-time embedded motor control systems. These drivers feature reduced component count, smaller PCB dimensions, and high CPU performance up to 100 MHz.
Microchip announced the expansion of its Serial SRAM product line, offering larger densities of up to 4 Mb and increased SPI/SQI speed to 143 MHz, providing a cost-effective, low-pin-count solution for high-performance applications.
What Our Model Says
Per the Zacks model, the combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. But that’s not the case here.
Microchip has an Earnings ESP of 0.00% and a Zacks Rank #3. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Stocks to Consider
Here are some companies worth considering, as our model shows that these have the right combination of elements to beat on earnings in their upcoming releases:
