Electronics Stock Earnings Slated for Aug 10: AVT & IEC
Read MoreHide Full Article
The Q2 earnings cycle is drawing to a close. As of Aug 5, 433 S&P 500 members, that is almost 87.7% of the index’s total membership, have released quarterly numbers, giving us a clear picture of every sector except Retail, where a sizable number of companies are yet to report results.
Overall, the picture that has emerged shows that we are headed toward the fifth consecutive quarter of negative earnings growth. Encouragingly though, the rate of decline has slowed down modestly from the previous quarter.
For the Technology sector, total earnings are predicted to inch up 0.2% on 2.7% higher revenues, marking a significant improvement over last quarter’s 4.5% earnings decline on a 0.4% improvement in revenues.
Based on the quarterly results of 88.1% of the Technology sector’s total market cap in the index that have been declared as of Aug 5, the industry has outperformed rather remarkably. Total earnings for these companies have dipped 0.8% on 2.4% higher revenues. A whopping 83% beat earnings estimates while 74.5% exceeded top-line expectations, thanks to better-than-expected results of sector giants like Facebook , Google’s parent Alphabet (GOOGL - Free Report) , Apple (AAPL - Free Report) and Microsoft (MSFT - Free Report) .
Within the Technology sector, the Electronics industry’s performance has been encouraging so far, having registered year-over-year earnings growth of 6.1% on 28.3% higher revenues. As of Aug 5, the industry witnessed an 80% beat ratio for both earnings and revenues.
As of the same date, 83.3% of all the companies in the Electronics space, with a combined industry market capitalization of 83.5%, have released earnings, which means that a handful of companies have yet to report quarterly numbers.
Among the companies lining up to report results this week, let’s find out what’s in the cards for these two Electronics stocks when they declare results on Aug 10.
