Investment thesis

🔼 Strong Financial Performance. Seagate reported excellent results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 (ending September 27, 2024). The company's revenue grew by 49.1% YoY to $2.17b. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) reached $1.58, compared to a loss of $0.22 the previous year. The result exceeded market expectations and matched the upper range of the company's own forecast. The gross profit margin increased from 19.8% to 33.3%, driven by price increases and cost control. The AI technology boom is fueling demand for data storage capacity, which benefits the company. For the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, Seagate expects revenue of approximately $2.3b (+/- $150 million) and EPS of $1.85 (+/- $0.20).

🔼 Dividends. The company shares its profits with shareholders through dividend payments. Management announced a 3% increase in dividends to $0.72 per share, corresponding to a 2.75% dividend yield, which is a strong indicator. In light of the anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, this will become even more significant.
