What are Wall Street analysts saying about Ambarella stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Ambarella stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Ambarella’s fiscal second-quarter results benefited from solid demand for the company’s core video processing portfolio. A stabilizing security camera business is a positive. Moreover, order pull-ins by the Chinese professional camera companies fearing a potential ban of U.S. chips sales act as a tailwind. Customers are also replacing products of HiSilicon with Ambarella, which is an upside for the company. Growing application of computer vision for ADAS and Driver Monitor System is a positive too. Shares have outperformed the industry year to date. However, global tariff issues, export restrictions and hostile macroeconomic conditions, remain concerns. Sluggish automotive market is a headwind. Moreover, Ambarella predicts consumer electronics revenues to persistently decline as a percentage of revenues over the next two to three years." (9/5/2019)
- 2. Northland Securities analysts commented, "We understand 3-5 are moving into mass production. The potential US sales ban to Hikvision and Dauha (roughly 20-25% of revenue) is also causing these customers to pull in orders forward into FY20:Q2 (Jul). If trade issues break in AMBA’s favor the Company could gain substantial market share. We estimate that their professional camera revenue was $90M in CY18. With its strong product offering, a 2x increase in selling price over the prior generation of chips, and diminished Huawei we estimate FY21 (Jan) AMBA’s professional camera revenue could be $200M-$250M. Assume the rest of the business declines by 10% our FY21/CY20 revenue estimate would be $315M-$365M substantially above our current estimate of $255M." (7/8/2019)
- 3. Needham & Company LLC analysts commented, "AMBA reported in-line F3Q19 revenue driven by Q/Q growth in both Security cameras. However, F4Q19 guidance fell short of expectations due to continued weakness in the consumer camera market and a seasonal decline in consumer Security cameras. SoCs secured their first four automotive design wins including one ADAS camera, two e-mirror designs and one level 4 AV short range stereo camera solution, with revenue contribution beginning in 2021-2022. CV22 will begin shipping to one security camera OEM in F4Q19 while most of the top 10 security camera OEMs will launch CV22-based cameras before the end of 2019. While we are encouraged by AMBA’s CV design wins, we are reducing estimates and will monitor AMBA for an opportunity to get more positive." (11/30/2018)
