preview 3Q17
TomTom will report its 3Q17 numbers on Friday 20 October
we are a bit below consensus on revenue and a bit above adj EPS
Key point to watch is automotive growth for which we see upside risk to our estimate as we believe that inbuild system penetration ( or take-rates) will continue to move upwards
we believe that the decline in consumer will accelerate further
due to the better mix, the gross margin should continue its strong upward trend
we believe that TomTom will reiterate its FY17 guidance of revenues bewteen 925-950 mio and adj EPS around 25 ct
we also expect more detail on the strategic review of the consumer sports business
- there will be a cc at 14.00 CET
- in contrast to prevous years, TomTom will not provide an automotive orderbook intake number at 3Q17
it will do so at FY17
- on 29th sep TomTom already announced that it cut 136 jobs in its consumer Sports biz
this was part of the strategic review to make the biz break-even, but clearly not the finalization
