Dolby Laboratories Remains Fully Valued On Slow Growth
Dolby Laboratories reported 13% year-over-year revenue growth in FQ1 2025, mainly due to quarterly timing variations, with a slightly improved fundamental outlook. Dolby's balance sheet includes $521 million in cash and no debt, but stock performance has significantly underperformed the benchmark iShares Expanded Technology-Software ETF. Revenue growth was guided at 3.2% for the current fiscal year, with potential upside in mobile and cinema products, but major catalysts are unlikely.
