Skyworks Solutions reported $905.5 million in revenue for the quarter ended June 28, down from $1.07 billion the previous year. The decline is primarily due to slower-than-expected sales of electric vehicles (EVs), impacted by reduced consumer discretionary spending. Skyworks Solutions and Wolfspeed supply crucial automotive chips to manufacturers like Tesla, Ford, and General Motors. Skyworks forecasted a 10% reduction in chip content for the upcoming iPhone model compared to the current version. Skyworks anticipates fourth-quarter revenue to range between $1 billion and $1.04 billion. The slowdown in chip demand has rippled through the tech and automotive sectors, sending shares of key suppliers, including Skyworks Solutions, tumbling. Investors should keep an eye on the broader implications of reduced consumer spending on discretionary tech purchases like EVs and smartphones. Skyworks Solutions' financial strain underscores the wider challenges facing the tech and automotive industries amid economic uncertainties. Strategic adjustments and resilient supply chains will be pivotal in maintaining market positions and driving future growth. [9232dd67] [421eedab]
