Investing.com -- NXP Semiconductors on Monday reported first-quarter results that beat estimates and touted cautious optimism for the second half of the year after guiding the current quarter above Wall Street estimates.
NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ:NXPI) shares were up more than 4% in after-hours trading following the report.
NXP reported EPS of $3.19 on revenue of $3.12 billion. Analysts polled by investing.com anticipated EPS of $3.02 on revenue of $3.00B.
The beat was driven by strong growth in chipmaker's Automotive and Industrial and internet of things, or IoT, units.
