Skyworks Solutions (SWKS - Free Report) closed at $170.41 in the latest trading session, marking a +1.9% move from the prior day. This move outpaced the S&P 500's daily gain of 0.88%.
Heading into today, shares of the chipmaker had lost 4.95% over the past month, lagging the Computer and Technology sector's loss of 0.94% and the S&P 500's gain of 0.15% in that time.
Wall Street will be looking for positivity from SWKS as it approaches its next earnings report date. The company is expected to report EPS of $2.13, up 70.4% from the prior-year quarter. Meanwhile, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenue is projecting net sales of $1.1 billion, up 49.42% from the year-ago period.
For the full year, our Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $10.30 per share and revenue of $5 billion, which would represent changes of +68.03% and +48.91%, respectively, from the prior year.
Investors might also notice recent changes to analyst estimates for SWKS. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. With this in mind, we can consider positive estimate revisions a sign of optimism about the company's business outlook.
Our research shows that these estimate changes are directly correlated with near-term stock prices. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.
The Zacks Rank system ranges from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell). It has a remarkable, outside-audited track record of success, with #1 stocks delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate remained stagnant. SWKS currently has a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold).
Valuation is also important, so investors should note that SWKS has a Forward P/E ratio of 16.24 right now. This valuation marks a no noticeable deviation compared to its industry's average Forward P/E of 16.24.
Also, we should mention that SWKS has a PEG ratio of 0.89. This metric is used similarly to the famous P/E ratio, but the PEG ratio also takes into account the stock's expected earnings growth rate.
