Amkor Set to Report Q3 Earnings: What's in Store for the Stock?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Amkor Technology (AMKR - Free Report) is slated to report third-quarter 2024 results after market close on Oct. 28.
AMKR anticipates third-quarter revenues between $1.785 billion and $1.885 billion (mid-point $1.835 billion), indicating sequential growth of 22-29%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.83 billion, suggesting a rise of 0.6% from the year-ago quarter’s $1.82 billion.
Amkor expects third-quarter earnings per share in the range of 42-56 cents. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pinned at 50 cents per share, unchanged over the past 60 days. This figure indicates a decline of 7.4% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
AMKR’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the trailing four quarters, the average surprise being 45.4%.
Amkor’s third-quarter performance is likely to have been driven by production ramps for new products, including advanced system-in-package (SiP) technology and 2.5D technology. The growing demand for Internet of Things wearables, along with production ramps of new products by vendors utilizing SiP technology, is anticipated to have driven the Consumer end market’s sales in the quarter under review.
Strength in AI, coupled with robust demand in high-performance computing and ARM-based personal computers, is likely to have boosted Amkor’s revenues from the Computing end market in the to-be-reported quarter. Advanced packaging in support of the seasonal launch of premium tier smartphones is likely to have benefited the Communications end market.
AMKR’s multiple long-term partnerships and expanding its broad geographic footprint are expected to have driven its top line in the quarter under review.
Amkor’s recent collaboration with Infineon Technologies to operate a dedicated packaging and test center at AMKR’s manufacturing site in Porto is a notable development. With this long-term agreement, Infineon and Amkor further strengthen their partnership, extending the classical outsourced semiconductor assembly and test business model.
Nonetheless, the continued weak performance across the Automotive and Industrial markets is likely to have more than offset the benefits of revenue growth across other end markets.
Performance in the Automotive and Industrial end markets is likely to have been hurt by ongoing inventory corrections. In the second quarter, Amkor reported a 2% sequential decline in revenues from this end market.
