Needham Reiterates Hold on iRobotto Hold

Consumer robot maker iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IRBT#NASDAQ">IRBT</a>) shares are trading lower after the company revealed preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/0001159167/000115916725000002/irbt-20250113.htm" rel="noreferrer noopener">ending December 28, 2024</a>.
Based on preliminary financial results,&nbsp;the company projects a revenue of approximately $171 million (consensus $187.84 million), alongside an expected GAAP operating loss of $59 million and a non-GAAP operating loss of $47 million.
iRobot had previously expected fourth-quarter revenue to be $175 million &#8211; $200 million with a GAAP operating loss of $43 million – $34 million and a non-GAAP <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41768381">operating loss of $31 million – $22 million.</a>
&#8220;Our preliminary results reflect higher-than-anticipated seasonal promotional spending to stimulate sell-through prior to our 2025 new product launches,&#8221;&nbsp;said CEO Gary Cohen.
In addition, iRobot faced a $8 million non-recurring charge related to the write-off of excess component inventory and losses from non-cancelable purchase commitments.
These factors contributed to the company&#8217;s operating loss and affected its gross margin in the fourth quarter.
Despite the challenges, Cohen emphasized that the company is undergoing significant transformations in its product development process, which is expected to improve long-term financial performance.
He also highlighted the company&#8217;s efforts to streamline operations while investing in growth areas that will drive future success.
As of the close of FY24, iRobot anticipates holding $134 million in cash and equivalents, exceeding its internal forecasts.
Looking ahead, iRobot is optimistic about returning to year-over-year revenue growth in 2025 as it rolls out new and improved products.
The company predicts that the second half of 2025 will outperform the first, with stronger sales driven by an expanded product line. However, the first quarter of 2025 is expected to reflect ongoing transitions in its product offerings.
With reduced product costs and quicker development cycles, iRobot expects improved margins and profitability as the year progresses.
Price Action: IBRT shares are trading lower by 19.5% at $8.41 on the last check Monday.

<li>A fortune is to be made in AI all the way to 2030.&nbsp; It is not going to be in a straight line.&nbsp; At times it will be treacherous.&nbsp; It is important to build your investing knowledge in AI.&nbsp; The problem you face is that much of the information available about investing in AI is not objective and not in your best interest.</li>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h4>
In the early trade, money flows are positive in Microsoft Corp and NVDA.
In the early trade, money flows are neutral in Amazon.com, Inc. and Alphabet Inc Class C .
In the early trade, money flows are negative in Tesla Inc,  Apple Inc , and Meta Platforms Inc.
In the early trade, money flows are positive in SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Momo Crowd And Smart Money In Stocks</h4>
Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.  Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.  The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust.  The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust .  The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h4>
Bitcoin is range bound.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h4>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h4>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness following the Fed's rate decision to cut rates by 25 basis points.

The EU is reportedly set to investigate Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) in 2025 for favoring its in-house branded products.
What Happened: The EU is preparing a case against Amazon under its Digital Markets Act or DMA, reported Reuters, citing people with direct knowledge of the matter.
The probe will focus on whether Amazon&#8217;s marketplace gives an unfair advantage to its own products over those sold by third-party vendors. If Amazon is found to be in violation of the DMA, it could be hit with a fine amounting to 10% of its global annual turnover.

The decision to launch the investigation will be made by the incoming EU antitrust chief, Teresa Ribera, in the upcoming months.

Why It Matters: The DMA, which was implemented last year, prohibits Amazon and six other big tech firms from favoring their products and services on their platforms.
In January, Amazon&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/01/36688100/amazons-irobot-deal-faces-likely-rejection-from-eu-competition-watchdog-report">$1.7-billion acquisition</a> of iRobot Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IRBT#NASDAQ">IRBT</a>), was abandoned due to opposition from the EU&#8217;s competition watchdog.

Amazon is contesting a case involving its first union at a warehouse in New York City.
Last month, Amazon reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41664778/amazon-q3-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-q4-guidance-new-kindles-significantly-outperfor">successful third quarter</a> in 2024, with net sales of $158.9 billion, an 11% increase year-over-year, beating the Street consensus estimate of $157.2 billion.
Price Action: Amazon shares closed Thursday&#8217;s session down 2.22% at $198.38. In after-hours trading, the stock dropped further, reaching $198.08 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
