Let’s see how things have shaped up for the upcoming announcement:

Factors to Consider

Amphenol’s second-quarter top-line growth is expected to have suffered from reduced demand in the communications market. The top line is expected to reflect excess inventory pile-up in the IT datacom market, which has hurt demand. Moreover, cautious spending by service providers is likely to have hurt mobile networks market growth in the to-be-reported quarter.

Communications Solutions accounted for 37.9% of Amphenol’s first-quarter 2023 revenues. Our model estimate for second-quarter Communications Solutions revenues is pegged at $1.26 billion, indicating a year-over-year decline of 8.6%.

The company’s other two segments — Harsh Environment Solutions and Interconnect and Sensor Systems — contributed 28.7% and 33.4%, respectively, to first-quarter revenues.

Harsh Environment Solutions revenues are estimated to decline 5% year over year to $750.6 million in the second quarter, per our model. Interconnect and Sensor Systems are estimated to decline 5.3% year over year.

Nevertheless, Amphenol’s diversified business model lowers the risks posed by the volatility of individual end markets and geographies.

Contributions from the acquisitions of Control Measure Regulation Group, Integrated Cable Assembly Holdings, NPI Solutions, MTS Sensors, Halo, Positronic, El-Cab, Unlimited Services, Cablecon and Euromicron are expected to have aided its second-quarter results.

Moreover, acquisitions have expanded its high technology and value-added interconnect product offerings in the diversified industrial market.
