TMTB: MRVL AVGO MDB DOCU First takes
MRVL MDB optics don’t look great, AVGO solid against high expects, while DOCU looks good against low expects
MRVL -11% Looks mixed with inline Q4 but weaker guide than expected. Calling Q1 the bottom in core biz.
Key will really be the call and AI - want to hear more specifics on AI custom silicon opp, direction commentary around DC guide (prev $800M but bogeys now north of $1.5B). CEO is known for his bullish commentary so call will definitely be interesting.
Also announced $3B share repurchase
GUIDANCE: Q1

Guides ADJ gross margin 62% to 63%, EST 63.6%

MDB -10% looks mixed with better Atlas revs (34% vs bogeys of 32-35%) and total revs (+27% vs bogeys of 26%); but FY25 a little weaker than expected (although will be viewed as conservative as they typically beat their initial guide by DD so implies mid 20s)
