Logitech (LOGI) to Report Q2 Earnings: What's in Store?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Logitech International (LOGI - Free Report) is slated to report second-quarter fiscal 2023 results on Oct 24.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter fiscal 2023 revenues is pegged at $1.21 billion, indicating a decrease of 7.3% from the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for non-GAAP earnings stands at 81 cents per share, suggesting a significant decline of 22.9% year over year.
The company’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate twice in the trailing four quarters and missed the same on two occasions, the average surprise being 3.5%.
Let’s see how things have shaped up before the upcoming announcement.
Logitech International S.A. Price and EPS Surprise
Logitech’s second-quarter results are likely to be negatively impacted by the declining demand for personal computers (PCs), the main sales booster for its PC peripheral products. Per the latest Gartner report, worldwide PC shipments declined 19.5% year over year to 68 million units in the third quarter of 2022.
The company witnessed a significant sales decline in several of its product offerings in the last reported quarter. In the last reported quarter, revenues from the PC Webcams, Tablet and Other Accessories, Audio & Wearables, Mobile Speakers and Other product categories plunged 46%, 16%, 40%, 22% and 67%, respectively. A strong comparison with the year-ago quarter is anticipated to have also weighed on LOGI’s sales growth.
The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and industry-wide elevated component costs are anticipated to have negatively impacted the company’s sales during the to-be-reported quarter. Per Gartner, the United States and the EMEA witnessed a 17.3% and 26.4% fall in overall PC shipments, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022.
However, reduced operating expenses are likely to have partially offset the negative impacts of the aforementioned factors on profitability.
