Factors to Consider

Analog Devices’ performance in the fiscal second quarter is likely to have benefited from solid demand for high-performance analog and mixed-signal solutions.

Strength across industrial, communications and automotive end markets is expected to have driven ADI’s top line in the to-be-reported quarter.

The solid momentum of Analog Devices’ precision signal chain, RF portfolios, power franchises, sensing technologies and wired and wireless connectivity among factory automation applications is expected to have contributed well to its industrial revenues in the quarter under review.

The rising uptake of the Battery Management System (BMS) solution in the electric vehicle space is likely to have been a tailwind.

The growing traction across A2B solutions is likely to have driven Analog Devices’ performance in the automotive market in the fiscal second quarter.

Strength in home entertainment, hearables and wearables is expected to have aided ADI’s performance in the consumer market in the to-be-reported quarter.

The growing deployment of 5G and solid momentum across the HEV platform is expected to have aided ADI’s performance in the fiscal second quarter.

However, the weakening momentum across major applications, a sluggish consumer market and a leveraged balance sheet are anticipated to have been concerning in the quarter under review.

Uncertainties and supply challenges related to the coronavirus pandemic are likely to have affected the fiscal second quarter performance.
