The stock of Marvell Technology, Inc. (MRVL), has fallen for three days in a row, reaching 86.30 dollars, the lowest price since November 4, 2008. MRVL is down by more than 27% since its peak this year. Will the MRVL stock price increase or decrease after earnings?
Marvell Technologies shares fall ahead of earnings
Marvell is now one of Wall Street’s top-ranking companies. The company has grown by more than 175% since its low point in 2023.
After reaching several deals with some of America’s biggest companies, such as Amazon and Microsoft, the company is doing well. It signed a 5-year contract with Amazon AWS in December. This will allow it to build custom AI chips for the company.
As they try to increase their market share, there is a greater chance that Microsoft or Google will agree with the company.
This year, the MRVL share price will be the focus of attention as the company releases its financial results. Analysts anticipate that revenue will have risen by 25,9% to $1.8 Billion in the past quarter. The annual revenue will reach $5.75 billion with this growth.
Marvell Technology is expecting to increase its earnings per share to 59 cents from 46 cents the day before. Annual EPS is expected to be $1.56 – higher than $1.51 a year ago.
The company tends to give very conservative guidance when it comes to earnings.
Marvell Technologies Stock is Set for an Uprising: 3 Reasons
Download Q3 Earnings
Marvell Technology did very well during the third quarter, according to its most recent financial results. The company’s revenues rose 7%, to $1.5 Billion, thanks in part to the 98% increase of revenue from its data center division.
Marvell Technology’s business outside of data centers, which includes enterprise, carrier, and industrial, grew by 4%. Meanwhile, consumer and industrial fell by 43% and 22% respectively.
Data center sales could slow in the coming years. This is the biggest threat to the business.
This year, it is expected that many large companies such as Amazon.com, Microsoft.com, and Google will invest more than $312 billion into AI.
It will take time for these investments to be repaid. Microsoft, for example, has yet to reap the benefits of its Copilot software that is viewed by many as expensive and ineffective.
Many semiconductor stocks, like AMD and Intel, have fallen because of the rising expectation that data centers will slow down.
Value concerns still remain
Marvell Technology’s stock has an $80 billion market value, which is a major concern. SeekingAlpha reports that it has an non-GAAP P/E ratio of 58. This is higher than the median for its sector of 23. The enterprise value of the company is much higher at 204 than that of other companies.
In the past, Marvell Technology has been able to keep its high valuation as long as growth continues.
