Analyst Expectations

Analysts at Mizuho had the following comments on AVGO.

AVGO reported its AprQ (the first full quarter with BRCM) Rev/EPS at $3.6B/$2.53, Revenue was inline and EPS was well above. The company guided to a strong JulQ. The wireless and storage segments were modestly weaker, as expected. CEO Hock offered an impressive JulQ guide with wireless growing 25% q/q and accelerating into the October quarter, with improving GM/OM and our F17E FCF estimate now at ~$10B, as AVGO drives topline and cost synergies ahead of street expectations. Reiterating our Buy and raising estimates and PT to $190.

Analysts at Bank of America Merrill Lynch weighed in as well.

Product diversity drives beat/raise, solid 2H/l-t position We reaffirm Buy, a top pick on US1-listed AVGO; we raise our FY16/17E EPS by 3%/1% to $10.97/$12.78 and raise our PO to $210 from $200. As we noted in our recent deep dive, the Q2 beat and strong Q3 outlook mark an inflection point since they: 1) reassure iPhone 6S weakness is behind and iPhone 7 strength is ahead with 20%+ content gains; 2) raise awareness about AVGO’s product diversity and new product strength in cloud/datacenter/ cable; and 3) underscore the company’s execution consistency with EPS growing 2x faster than sales. Overall we see a company with 5-6% sales, 12% EPS CAGR, 10% annual dividend growth (1.3% div yield currently), and path to $15/sh in pf-EPS.
