What is the 72-Hour Profit Surge? (From DTI)
Marvell Technology Data Center Revenues Surge, But the Rest Fall 
Marvell Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVL) is a leading semiconductor company in the computer and technology sector that designs and manufactures high-performance chips. They are a powerhouse when it comes to their largest market addressing data infrastructure solutions and data centers. While the company is a benefactor of the artificial intelligence (AI) boom and explosive growth in data centers, it may be perceived as one-dimensional, as evidenced by the 10% drop in shares in reaction to its fiscal Q1 2025 earnings report. Marvell has heavy competition from peers, including Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO), Synaptics Inc. (NASDAQ: SYNA) and STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE: STM). AI is already replacing workers in warehouses.
It's spreading like lightning in the software, legal and engineering industries…
It's now estimated at least 300 million jobs worldwide are in AI's crosshairs. Click here for details.  The Good: Explosive Data Center TAM Growth of Over 300% by 2028. Marvell generates 70% of its revenues from the data center segment. The boom in AI infrastructure demand and scorching growth in data centers led to an 87% YoY and 7% sequential spike in its data center revenues to $816.4 million in its fiscal Q1 2025 earnings report. Robust growth was driven by cloud AI and cloud infrastructure electro-optic products as well as initial shipments of its custom AI compute programs. Marvell Expects to Double its 10% Market Share in Coming Years. Data Center revenue is expected to grow in the mid-single digits sequentially as they ramp up custom AI silicon production. The data center's total addressable market (TAM) is expected to more than triple, growing from $21 billion last year to $75 billion in 2028. With the numerous opportunities in interconnect, switching, storage, and computing, Marvell expects to double its 10% market share over the next several years. Marvell is believed to be working on application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips with hyperscaler giants Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) on its 5nm Tranium chip, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) on its 5nm Axion ARM CPU and Microsoft Co. (NASDAQ: MSFT) on its Maia chip. The Bad: Carrier and Enterprise Revenues Sink 58% YoY Inventory glut and normalization are expected to continue driving softer industry demand. Enterprise networking revenue sank 58% YoY and 42% sequentially to $153.1 million. Carrier revenues fell 75% YoY and 58% sequentially to $71.8 million, well below Marvell's forecast for declines of 40% and 50%, respectively. However, the company expects a recovery to start in the second half of fiscal 2025 as customers work through the inventory correction. The Ugly: Consumer Segment Revenues Fall 70% YoY The consumer segment revenue fell 70% YoY to $42 million, in line with prior guidance. However, the company expects the consumer segment revenues to double on a sequential basis. The automotive and industrial segment saw a 13% YoY decline to $77.6 million due to broad inventory correction in the automotive end market. Growth is expected to resume after a flat fiscal Q2 2025. 
MRVL Sinks on a Descending Triangle Breakdown Pattern The daily candlestick chart on MRVL illustrates a descending triangle breakdown pattern.

Pullback support levels are at $66.10, $61.72, $55.63 and $50.35. Robust Growth Hampered by a Ball and Chain. Marvel reported fiscal Q1 2025 EPS of 24 cents, matching consensus estimates. Revenues fell 12.2% YoY to $1.16 billion, beating $1.15 billion consensus estimates. Marvel Provides Conservative In-Line Fiscal Q2 2025 Guidance. Marvell took a conservative approach due to its sinking segments and provided in-line guidance for fiscal Q2 2022 EPS of 24 cents to 34 cents versus 28 cents consensus estimates. Revenues are expected to be between $1.1875 billion and $1.3125 billion versus the consensus estimates of $1.22 billion. Non-GAAP gross margins are expected to be around 62%. Non-GAAP operating expenses are expected to be around $455 million. Marvell Technology CEO Matt Murphy commented, "For the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we are guiding an 8% sequential increase in revenue at the mid-point, fueled by ramping custom AI silicon. We see a favorable setup for the second half of this fiscal year, driven by continued growth in data center and the beginning of a recovery in enterprise networking and carrier infrastructure."
