Factors to Consider

A strong demand environment across the broadband data access market is likely to have continued benefiting the company in the first quarter.

Moreover, increasing remote-working trends,which have triggered the demand for access data bandwidth and in-home distribution, are expected to have impacted the to-be-reported quarterly results positively.

Further, growing momentum across the company’s multiple product lines is expected to have been a tailwind.

Furthermore, strengthening connectivity business, which includes WiFi, Ethernet, MoCA and G.hn, is expected to have contributed well to the top line of the company in the quarter to be reported.

Additionally, the impacts of increasing adoption of 100G PAM4 by Tier-1 customers are expected to get reflected in the first-quarter results.

Also, new DC/DC power modules are expected to have gained traction across FPGA, DSP and SoC high-current core and memory supply rails.

Apart from these, rising power management attach rates across the company’s broadband infrastructure applications are expected to have driven content growth across the existing platform.

Additionally, synergies from the acquisition of Intel’s Home Gateway Platform Division and NanoSemi buyout are expected to have aided the company’s first-quarter performance.

However, headwinds related to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic are anticipated to have been concerning. Moreover, supply-chain constraints in semiconductor manufacturing are expected to have negative impacts on the company’s first-quarter performance.
