Bulls say / Bears say

Avnet posted record fourth-quarter sales of $8.3 billion, up 48% year on year, with growth across every region and both business groups. Its first-quarter forecast calls for a further 10% sequential sales increase at the midpoint, offering near-term momentum if demand holds. (Avnet, Inc.)
Profit grew faster than revenue as operating leverage kicked in: adjusted operating margin rose to 3.8%, while adjusted EPS increased 182% year on year. Lower inventory days and continued cost discipline could help sustain that earnings recovery. (Avnet, Inc., The Motley Fool)
AI infrastructure is lifting demand not only for data-centre components but also for power, connectivity and automation across industrial and edge applications. Avnet says this wider spread of demand is supporting its business across end markets, rather than making growth reliant on data centres alone. (The Motley Fool)
Around one-third of fourth-quarter sales growth came from higher memory prices, rather than more units. If pricing eases, reported revenue growth could cool even if underlying demand remains steady. (The Motley Fool)
Underlying gross-margin pressure remains: fourth-quarter gross margin was 10.4%, down 14 basis points year on year, and fiscal-year gross margin fell 31 basis points. A mix shift towards lower-margin Asia sales could limit how much of the recovery reaches profit. (Avnet, Inc., Avnet)
The upturn is tying up cash: operations used $291 million in the fourth quarter as receivables rose, and management expected further cash use to support growth. Gross leverage was still 3.2 times, so rapid expansion could continue to strain working capital and constrain financial flexibility. (The Motley Fool)
