Technology stocks have displayed an impressive performance in the last reported quarter.
An uptick in PC shipments, strengthening data-center market, increasing proliferation of IoT amid accelerated deployment of 5G and growing clout of cloud-based applications have been driving the sector of late.
Nevertheless, impact from the Huawei ban and slowing China market are deterrents to growth.
In this backdrop, investors are now keenly awaiting earnings releases from Adobe (ADBE - Free Report) , Oracle (ORCL - Free Report) and Broadcom (AVGO - Free Report) . These companies usually report after the busy period of the earnings season. All these stocks are scheduled to report on Mar 12.
Let’s take a look into how things have been shaping up for these prominent technology companies ahead of their earnings releases.
Adobe’s first-quarter fiscal 2020 performance is likely to have been impacted by robust adoption of Digital Media Solutions, driven by growing demand for Adobe Experience Cloud.
Moreover, impressive growth in Creative Cloud and Document Cloud business lines is expected to get reflected in the fiscal first-quarter Digital Media ARR (or Annualized Recurring Revenues).
Adobe has an Earnings ESP of 0.00% and carries a Zacks Rank #3. You can uncover the best stocks to buy or sell before they’re reported with our Earnings ESP Filter.
Oracle’s third-quarter fiscal 2020 performance is anticipated to have had benefited from solid adoption of cloud-based services and latest Autonomous Database.
Further, cloud-based Fusion ERP, NetSuite and HCM applications is likely to have contributed to fiscal third-quarter performance.
However, increasing expenses on product enhancements, by means of partnerships and acquisitions, is expected to have put pressure on margins in fiscal third quarter.
This Zacks Rank #3 stock has an Earnings ESP of 0.00%.
Broadcom’s first-quarter fiscal 2020 performance is expected to have benefited from expanding presence in the infrastructure software space on synergies from acquisitions of CA and Symantec’s Enterprise Security business.
However, sequential decline in global semiconductor sales in November, December and January is likely to have dented performance of Broadcom’s Semiconductor Solutions segment in the yet-to-be-reported quarter.
Broadcom has a Zacks Rank #3 and an Earnings ESP of -4.22%.
Last year, it generated $24 billion in global revenues. By 2020, it's predicted to blast through the roof to $77.6 billion. Famed investor Mark Cuban says it will produce "the world's first trillionaires," but that should still leave plenty of money for regular investors who make the right trades early.
