Factors at Play
Strong customer momentum on the back of a robust product portfolio and design wins is likely to have benefited Lattice Semiconductor’s performance during the fourth quarter.
Growing momentum across multiple applications such as industrial, automation and robotics, advanced driver-assistance systems and infotainment systems is expected to have bolstered the company’s presence in the industrial and automotive markets during the quarter under review.
Expanding portfolio of general purpose and AI-optimized data center servers is expected to have been a major growth driver for the company in the computing end market during the fourth quarter.
Solid momentum of the Lattice Avant platform is likely to have acted as a tailwind for the company in the to-be-reported quarter.
However, softening demand in the communication market, specifically in 5G telecom infrastructure, is expected to have negatively impacted the top-line growth in the quarter under review.
Weakening demand across industrial and automotive customers in Asia and Europe is likely to have been another negative.
Further, macroeconomic uncertainties might have been a concern for the company.
