The majority of analysts covering the company have reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Universal Display has missed Wall Street's revenue estimates four times over the last two years.

Impinj delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 19.2%, beating analysts' expectations by 5.2%, and Sensata Technologies reported a revenue decline of 2.5%, in line with consensus estimates. Impinj traded up 4.6% following the results while Sensata Technologies's stock price was unchanged.

Growth stocks have been quite volatile since the start of 2024, and while some of the analog semiconductors stocks have fared somewhat better, they have not been spared, with share prices down 7.3% on average over the last month. Universal Display is up 1.7% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $220.4 (compared to the current share price of $216.99).
