Audinate (AD8) $3.53

Audinate’s 1H26 result marked a return to growth, but it also reinforced our view that FY25–26 are not normal years for the business. Post-COVID distortions, inventory digestion and US tariff uncertainty continue to weigh on near-term momentum. That said, the long-term investment case remains intact, and we think the market is pricing in very little upside.

Audinate (AD8) $9.59

A big relief rally from the audio/visual operative today after they reported lower costs, down 3% versus prior guidance which was a 7-9% increase. A big shift from an operational perspective and we’d generally expect that to have a negative influence on the top line, though this came largely in line with expectations.

Audinate (AD8) $8.96

Audio-visual technology company AD8 delivered a soft 1Q25 update yesterday, with further downgrades to gross profit guidance reflecting ongoing challenges including softer demand due to slower clearance of inventories from manufacturers. The stock was hit hard in the morning, down 16% at the lows, however, it recovered a lot of the initial plunge to be down ~6% by the close – not a bad effort considering.

Audinate (AD8) $11.33

We’re surprised by the extent of the rally today – though we’re pleased to see it - with the main positive new news (vs the recent downgrade to FY25 expectations) being the ongoing positive momentum in video in 2H24 and the inclusion of ‘disciplined examination of M&A opportunities’ as part of their guidance.

Audinate (AD8) $8.48

Just an incredibly poor/left-field FY25 outlook provided by Audinate yesterday, and while FY24 was good, and slightly above expectations, that means very little for a company trading on a growth multiple that is going backwards in FY25. Casting our minds back to the 1H24 results, they reported revenue up 48% and earnings a whopping ~70% ahead of expectations driven by strong sales and better-than-expected margins.
