Applied Materials sees Q1 EPS $2.29 +/- 18c, consensus $2.27

Sees Q1 revenue $7.15B +/- $400M, consensus $7.25B. The company said, “In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, Applied expects net revenue to be approximately $7.15 billion, plus or minus $400 million. Non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to be approximately $2.29, plus or minus $0.18. This outlook for non-GAAP diluted EPS excludes known charges related to completed acquisitions of $0.01 per share and includes a net income tax benefit related to intra-entity intangible asset transfers of $0.09 per share, but does not reflect any items that are unknown at this time, such as any additional charges related to acquisitions or other non-operational or unusual items, as well as other tax-related items, which we are not able to predict without unreasonable efforts due to their inherent uncertainty.”
