- Broadcom is scheduled to report its Q1 fiscal 2026 results after the close on March 4.
- RBC’s Srini Pajjuri now models Q1 revenue and EPS of $19.1 billion and $2.00, Q2 of $20.4 billion and $2.16, sees results slightly above consensus, and lowered his price target to $340 with a sector perform rating.
- Pajjuri highlighted customer concentration questions, citing Anthropic’s up to $21 billion TPU rack orders that ramp in the second half of 2026 with uncertain sustainability.
