Micron Technology Expected to Post Modest Earnings Amid Slower PC Demand -- Earnings Preview

Dow Jones

By Katherine Hamilton

Micron Technology is scheduled to report second-quarter financial results after the market closes on Thursday. Here is what you need to know.

REVENUE: The memory-chip maker is expected to report $7.9 billion in sales, up from $5.82 billion in the previous second quarter.

NET INCOME: The Boise, Idaho, company is expected to report a profit of $1.63 billion, compared with $793 million the year before.

ADJUSTED EARNINGS: Stripping out certain one-time items, earnings are expected to come in at $1.43 a share, up from 42 cents a share in the prior-year quarter.

The stock fell 2% during the quarter and recently traded around $101.87.

WHAT TO WATCH

Micron has issued a cautious outlook for this quarter because consumers last quarter weren't upgrading their personal computers as quickly as expected. Sales in the automotive market, for whom Micron is a memory and storage supplier, were dented last quarter due to lower production and car makers trimming inventory.

Analysts are expecting earnings to be in line with expectations because high-bandwidth memory demand has remained strong, offsetting elevated inventory across consumer-facing markets such as personal computers and smartphones.

Micron could offer a more pessimistic outlook for the third quarter, analysts say, due to lingering softness in memory pricing.
