Read MoreHide Full Article
SMART Global Holdings, Inc. (SGH - Free Report) is slated to report first-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Jan 9.
The company expects revenues between $250 million and $300 million for the quarter to be reported. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the same is pegged at $274.99 million, indicating a 40.9% decline from the year-ago reported quarter.
SMART Global anticipates non-GAAP earnings per share between 0 and 30 cents. The consensus mark for fiscal first-quarter earnings is pinned at 16 cents per share, reflecting a fall of 79.7% from the prior-year reported figure.
The company has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 25.3%, on average.
SMART Global Holdings, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
SMART Global’s strong momentum across its Intelligent Platform Solutions segment is likely to have contributed well to its top-line growth in the fiscal first quarter.
Strength across its new brand, Penguin Solutions, is anticipated to have been a positive.
Expanding Penguin's cloud-based solution offerings, as well as solutions focused on core, data center, artificial intelligence (“AI”) and analytics, are expected to have driven the company’s customer momentum in the quarter under review.
The growing capabilities of Penguin Solutions in high-performance computing and AI cluster management fields might have boosted its adoption rate further.
In addition, solid momentum across ztC Edge products might have aided the company in winning new customers during the fiscal first quarter.
This apart, solid adoption of core DDR3, DDR4 and Flash products is expected to have boosted SGH’s presence in the networking, telecom and storage end markets.
However, a challenging global macroeconomic environment and growing economic uncertainties are likely to be reflected in SMART Global’s fiscal first-quarter results.
A weakening momentum across memory and LED solutions might have been a major concern.
What Our Model Says
Our proven model does not conclusively predict an earnings beat for SMART Global this time around. The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat.
