Analog Devices (ADI) Q1 Earnings Beat, Revenues Down Y/Y
Read MoreHide Full Article
Analog Devices Inc. (ADI - Free Report) reported first-quarter fiscal 2020 adjusted earnings of $1.03 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 3%. However, the bottom line decreased 22.6% year over year and 13.4% sequentially.
Revenues of $1.304 billion surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.301 billion. However, the top line declined 15% year over year and 9.6% from the fiscal fourth quarter.
