Factors to Consider

Netgear designs technologically advanced, branded networking products that address the specific needs of small business and home users.

We believe that Netgear’s strength in its retail business will primarily drive results. Additionally, a strong product portfolio, comprising offerings like Arlo smart home security-cameras and Nighthawk routers and gateways, is expected to boost the top line going forward. Region wise, North America continues to be a stronghold.

However, the service provider business continues to pose challenges as the company continues to streamline this segment. In the first quarter, segment revenues plunged as much as 27% year over year.

For the second quarter, the company expects revenues of $290 million to $305 million. Non GAAP operating margin is expected to be around 9.5% to 10.5%.
