Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) Stock Ends Mixed Ahead of Q3 Earnings

September 4, 2025 (New York) - Broadcom Inc. shares dipped modestly in after-hours trading on Thursday as investors positioned themselves ahead of the company’s third-quarter earnings release scheduled for after the market close.

In regular session, AVGO traded in a tight range, reflecting investor caution ahead of key results. In after-hours trading, the stock was quoted at $303.82, down $2.28, or 0.74%. Trading volumes remained subdued as market participants awaited the earnings report.

Analysts expect Broadcom to post third-quarter earnings of $1.65 per share, up from $1.24 a year earlier, on revenue of $15.83 billion, compared with $13.07 billion in the year-ago period. Wall Street forecasts hinge on whether the company’s AI semiconductor business and VMware software subscription revenue can sustain their rapid growth.

Investor sentiment on social platforms has been mixed. Recent discussions highlight optimism about Broadcom’s leadership in AI chips and strong free-cash-flow generation, but some market watchers question whether the current price-to-earnings ratio-which trades at elevated multiples-can be justified by the upcoming results.

Broadcom will report its official third-quarter results at approximately 4:15 p.m. ET today, followed by a conference call with management. The company’s outlook for the fourth quarter will be closely scrutinized for signs of continued momentum in AI accelerators, networking products, and software infrastructure.
