Factors to Note
NXP Semiconductors’ first-quarter 2024 results are likely to have benefitted from strength across the Industrial & IoT segment, owing to tight channel management and an increase in prices.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Industrial & IoT segment revenues in first-quarter 2024 is pegged at $581.7 million, indicating a rise of 15.4% on a year-over-year basis.
Growing demand for the company’s ultra-wideband solutions across automotive and OEM markets is expected to have boosted the Mobile segment’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
The consensus mark for Mobile segment revenues in the first quarter of 2024 is pegged at $343.83 million, indicating a jump of 32.2% on a year-over-year basis.
Strong momentum across NXPI’s radar systems, electrification solutions and high-performance processors for software-defined vehicles is expected to have bolstered its Automotive segment’s performance during the first quarter.
However, lower shipment volumes and increasing inventory correction are likely to have impacted the Automotive segment negatively in the quarter under review.
The consensus estimate for Automotive revenues is currently pegged at $1.8 billion, indicating a decline of 1.4% from the year-ago quarter.
Sluggishness in the communications infrastructure sector, due to weaker base station deployments globally and faster-than-expected demand shift to gallium nitride products, is expected to have been a major headwind for the company.
The consensus mark for Communications Infrastructure & Others segment revenues in first-quarter 2024 is pegged at $398.92 million, indicating a decline of 25.6% on a year-over-year basis.
Further, unfavorable seasonality and elevated inflation are likely to have hurt NXPI’s profitability in the quarter under review.
