- Tuesday, March 19, 10:50 AM Lattice Semi (LSCC +7.5%) jumps after guiding for 6%-8% Q/Q revenue growth in Q1, well above prior guidance for a 2%-4% drop. Gross margin is expected to be at the low end of a prior guidance range of 52%-56% thanks to a greater mix of telecom and consumer chip sales. Bigger rivals Altera (ALTR +0.4%) and Xilinx (XLNX +1.5%) are up slightly. This morning, Xilinx introduced a new chip for its Zynq line of SoCs. By combining DSP and ARM CPU cores with Xilinx's programmable logic, Zynq expands Xilinx's reach within embedded markets. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]

- Friday, January 18, 1:23 PM Though it soundly missed FQ3 revenue estimates (while slightly beating on EPS), Xilinx (XLNX +1.5%) is trading higher and is within range of its 52-week high. Expectations were low following Altera's (ALTR -0.3%) warning, and investors could be pleased with a healthy gross margin of 66.6% (up 110 bps Q/Q). The FPGA vendor guided for FQ4 revenue of $520M-$540M, below a $544.2M consensus. Sales for the Industrial, Aerospace & Defense segment rose 7% Q/Q in FQ3, but all other segments were lower. (transcript) Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
- Wednesday, January 9, 4:38 PM QuickLogic (QUIK) -9.1% AH after warning it expects to report Q4 revenue of $3.1M, below prior guidance of $3.4M (+/- 10%). No explanation is given for the shortfall. Bigger rival Altera (ALTR) lowered its guidance last month. Altera, Xilinx (XLNX), and Lattice Semi (LSCC) could trade lower following the warning. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]
- Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 4:15 PM Lattice Semi (LSCC) +2.1% AH after warning it expects Q4 revenue to fall 6%-8% Q/Q, worse than prior guidance of -2% to +2% and a consensus for flat sales. Rival Altera lowered guidance last week, something (among other things) that probably served to depress expectations. Comment! [Tech, Earnings]
- Tuesday, December 4, 2012, 4:31 PM Altera (ALTR) -2.7% AH after guiding on its mid-quarter update for an 8%-10% Q/Q drop in Q4 revenue, worse than prior guidance for a 6%-10% drop. The FPGA maker is also guiding for a 2013 gross margin of 69%-70%, in-line with the 69.3% margin Altera reported for Q3, and for 2013 R&D spending of $404M, up 12% from expected 2012 R&D spending of roughly $360M. CC at 4:45 PM ET (webcast). Xilinx (XLNX) -1.8%. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 24, 2012, 11:20 AM Though it beat Q3 estimates, Altera (ALTR -6.8%) is diving thanks to guidance for a 6%-10% Q/Q drop in Q4 revenue - the Street had been expecting a slight increase. During its earnings call, Altera partly blamed the decision of a top customer to migrate two high-volume FPGA designs (4% of Q3 revenue) to ASICs, though it also admitted it's seeing broad-based weakness. Rivals are off, as are some other chipmakers with strong telecom exposure. XLNX -1.5%. LSCC -2.1%. CAVM -3.5%. PMCS -3.2%. AMCC -3%. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 4:40 PM Altera (ALTR): Q3 EPS of $0.49 beats by $0.03. Revenue of $495M (+6% Y/Y) beats by $12M. Shares -1.3% AH. (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings, Tech, On the Move]

$ALTR fabbing at $INTC means that $XLNX will also need to move to $INTC to avoid getting left in the dust. - View all 13 replies

ephud: Goinidias - Altera must have paid quite a price for that exclusivity. -
Goinidias: Probably. I imagine intel doesn't want a price war, so putting them in position to charge a premium isn't bad for intel.
