  • Q1 Revenue: $236.54 million beat estimates of $234.99 million

"Semtech exceeded the midpoint of our revenue and earnings guidance as we see signs of business stabilization," said Mohan Maheswaran, president and CEO of Semtech.

"As we continue to navigate this challenging macro-economic environment, we are taking steps to improve our operational efficiency and financial performance while focusing on executing our plans."

On June 6, Semtech entered into a second amendment to its existing credit agreement that provides additional cushion with respect to certain financial covenants.
