Skyworks Solutions Analysts Boost Their Forecasts After Q3 Results

Skyworks Solutions Inc SWKS reported mixed third-quarter financial results on Tuesday.

"Skyworks generated solid results and strong profitability consistent with our guidance," said Liam K. Griffin, CEO of Skyworks. "Exiting the June quarter, our mobile business is ramping up while our broad markets business continues to recover. Over the medium-to-long-term, we expect generative AI applications will migrate to the edge, including the smartphone, driving a meaningful replacement cycle and leading to higher levels of RF complexity."
