Let’s see how things have shaped up for this announcement.
Factors at Play
Ambarella’s earnings are likely to have benefited from strong design wins and customer engagement with its AI-enabled video-processing chips in the consumer security camera. The company is gaining from solid momentum in CV2, CV22 and CV25. Notably, in fiscal 2020, these products generated production revenues from 1,000 customers.
The company, during its fourth-quarter fiscal 2020 earnings conference call, had stated that momentum in the aforementioned products will likely continue in fiscal 2021. Moreover, Ambarella projects the CV product portfolio to contribute 10% to the total fiscal 2021 revenues.
Nonetheless, supply-chain disruptions in China and non-China regions amid the coronavirus-induced global lockdown are expected to have hurt the fiscal first-quarter performance. During its last earnings conference call, management had noted witnessing some order push as well as cancellations in the beginning of the fiscal first quarter due to the coronavirus-led business disruptions.
