Qorvo, Inc. QRVO reported strong first-quarter fiscal 2027 results, with both adjusted earnings and revenues surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate.
During the quarter, lower smartphone-related revenues weighed on the company’s overall sales. However, solid growth in the High-Performance Analog business, along with disciplined cost management, helped improve profitability and margins.
Net Income
On a GAAP basis, the company reported a net income of $85.8 million or 96 cents per share compared with $25.6 million or 27 cents per share in the prior-year quarter. Despite lower net sales, lower cost of goods sold boosted the bottom line during the quarter.
