Factors to Note

Marvell’s second-quarter performance is likely to have benefited from the solid demand for its networking products, primarily across the data center and 5G infrastructure end markets.

On its first-quarter conference call, Marvell stated that it anticipates strong sequential revenue growth in the second quarter, driven by the substantial contribution from the cloud data center end market, enterprise networking end market, and combined auto & industrial end market in the United States and other regions.

Additionally, 5G and cloud product ramp-ups and revenues from the last year’s Inphi Corporation acquisition might have favored MRVL’s overall performance during the quarter under review.

Record bookings from data infrastructure end markets and the ramp-up of multiple Ethernet design win in upcoming vehicles are anticipated to have driven revenues significantly in the fiscal second quarter. The consumer and industrial businesses are likely to have put up an impressive show in the quarter under review.

However, certain ongoing supply-chain-related impacts might act as headwinds, which are likely to curb Marvell’s ability to fully meet the increase in demand for some of its product offerings.

Marvell expects a second-quarter non-GAAP gross margin of 65-65.5%, while non-GAAP operating expenses are estimated to be approximately $435 million.
