Fubotv earnings beat by $0.10, revenue topped estimates
Friday’s trading session witnessed KeyBanc analyst reiterating a Sector Weight rating for Ambarella (NASDAQ:AMBA) stock, maintaining the company’s standing amidst its latest financial outcomes and future projections. According to InvestingPro data, while the company isn’t currently profitable, with a -$2.48 EPS over the last twelve months, analysts expect a return to profitability this fiscal year. Ambarella reported robust first-quarter results and provided an optimistic guidance for the second quarter, propelled by vigorous growth in its Internet of Things (IoT) segment. This growth is primarily driven by the strong demand for edge AI technology, although it is somewhat tempered by a deceleration in the automotive sector.
Ambarella has also revised its revenue growth outlook for fiscal year 2026 (ending in January), now anticipating an increase of approximately 22% at the midpoint, compared to the previous forecast of mid- to high-teens percentage growth. This projection builds on the company’s impressive revenue growth of 44.5% over the last twelve months, as reported by InvestingPro, which offers 8 additional key insights about Ambarella’s financial health and market position. The company’s strategic focus is shifting towards edge AI infrastructure, recognizing an addressable market for edge AI of nearly $13 billion, which is expected to grow at an 18% compound annual growth rate over the next five years.
In anticipation of expanding market opportunities beyond its traditional enterprise and home security domains, Ambarella is preparing to release a new chip. KeyBanc analysts have expressed optimism regarding these developments and have subsequently raised their estimates.
Despite these positive indicators, KeyBanc maintains a cautious stance, opting to keep the Sector Weight rating unchanged. The firm acknowledges the potential of Ambarella’s strategic realignment but also notes that such transitions typically require time to fully materialize. KeyBanc is looking for additional evidence to support a more bullish view on the stock’s future performance. InvestingPro’s analysis shows the company maintains strong financial flexibility with a healthy current ratio of 2.69 and more cash than debt on its balance sheet, though its overall Financial Health score remains "FAIR" with a rating of 1.95 out of 5.
In other recent news, Ambarella reported strong first-quarter fiscal year 2026 results, surpassing consensus expectations. The company achieved revenue of $86 million and non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.07, both exceeding the forecasted $84 million and $0.04, respectively. Following these results, Ambarella raised its full-year revenue growth guidance to a range of 19-25%, reflecting confidence in its edge AI System on Chip technology. The company also provided a second-quarter revenue forecast of $90 million, indicating a 41% year-over-year growth. Despite these positive developments, Needham adjusted its price target for Ambarella from $110 to $90, maintaining a Buy rating, while Oppenheimer reiterated a Perform rating due to valuation concerns. Ambarella’s strategic shift is evident as it diversifies its revenue streams, with security cameras now contributing less than half of total revenue, while automotive and consumer markets make up the rest. The company is also expanding its Strategic Addressable Market (SAM) and developing next-generation processors to enhance its presence in the edge infrastructure market.
