Corsair Gaming, Inc. (CRSR) experienced a pre-market plunge of 17.81% on Tuesday, November 7, 2024, as the gaming peripherals and components maker reported disappointing third-quarter financial results and lowered its full-year guidance, citing macroeconomic headwinds and industry challenges.
The company reported a net loss of $51.6 million, or $0.56 per share, for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, missing analysts' expectations of a profit of $0.06 per share. Revenue declined 16.2% year-over-year to $304.2 million, although it beat the consensus estimate of $302.5 million.
The lackluster performance was primarily driven by a 26% revenue decline in Corsair's Gaming Components and Systems segment to $202.2 million, reflecting the end of the current GPU cycle and weaker consumer demand. While the Gamer and Creator Peripherals segment saw a 13% revenue growth to $102 million, it was not enough to offset the weakness in the core components business.
