This quarter, analysts are expecting Lattice Semiconductor’s revenue to decline 33.9% year on year to $127.1 million, a reversal from the 11.4% increase it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $0.24 per share.

The majority of analysts covering the company have reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Lattice Semiconductor has missed Wall Street’s revenue estimates twice over the last two years.

AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 17.6%, beating analysts’ expectations by 1.6%, and Qorvo (NASDAQ:QRVO) reported a revenue decline of 5.2%, topping estimates by 1.8%. AMD traded down 10.6% following the results while Qorvo was also down 27.4%.

Valuation multiples for many growth stocks have not yet reverted to their early 2021 highs, but the market was optimistic at the end of 2023 thanks to cooling inflation. 2024 has been a different story as mixed signals have led to market volatility, and while some of the processors and graphics chips stocks have fared somewhat better, they have not been spared, with share prices down 4.6% on average over the last month. Lattice Semiconductor’s stock price was unchanged during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $60.79 (compared to the current share price of $52.28).
