Skyworks reports Q3 results and cuts Q4 guidance amid Android softness and merger integration

Skyworks Solutions posted third‑quarter revenue of $1.05 billion and adjusted earnings of $1.28 per share. The company forecast fourth‑quarter revenue of $1.85 billion and adjusted earnings of $1.25 per share, indicating a 7% sequential decline. Management cited weaker Android demand and integration challenges after its merger with Qorvo. The guidance fell short of Wall Street estimates, prompting the stock to drop 7.9% before recovering to $81.47.

Analysts note that the below‑estimate guidance could pressure the share price in the near term (the company’s own press release cites the guidance shortfall). The projected $500 million annual cost synergies from the merger remain a key upside driver, but the immediate earnings outlook is weaker than expected.
