Dolby Q1 earnings call - 1/29/2020

The general view is a nice beat on revenue and EPS in Q1, Q2 guidance that looks really good to me but is being characterized as inline, and no update to FY20 guidance.

- Main metric is DV penetration and they were clear they expect it to remain on a doubling yearly trajectory, 2019 was 4K at 50% TV market share and DV 10% of 4K. 5% total, going to 10% in 2020.

- Bought back 430K shares in Q1. Really good question on buyback path and philosophy from Dougherty, they were clear it is unchanged and a major part of their capital return program.

- Amazon Echo now has DA. They are in discussions with a broad range of smart speakers, auto and mobile and expect DA penetration to be significant in the coming years.

- Dolby Cinema - 250 screens, still less than 5% of revenue, Health issue will impact Chinese locations impacted but the total percentage of revenue is small and they did not blame any guidance on it.

This was a really good report considering the Chinese situation, it will be interesting to see the take from the analysts.
