Earnings Call Insights: Dolby Laboratories (DLB) Q2 fiscal 2026 Management view "Revenue and non-GAAP earnings for the quarter came in consistent with the expectations we provided on the call last quarter, and we are maintaining our full year guidance," said President, CEO & Director Kevin Yeaman. Yeaman said Dolby content availability expanded across platforms and formats, including: "Meta has adopted Dolby Vision for content streamed on iOS for both Instagram and Facebook, and Douyin in China has enabled Dolby Vision for content on both iOS and Android," and "Just this quarter, the Super Bowl and the Winter Olympics were available in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos." On TVs, Yeaman said, "we're excited about the first Dolby Vision 2 TVs coming to market by the end of this fiscal year," adding, "We expect Dolby Vision 2 to increase ASPs and drive deeper adoption into TV lineups," and pointing to OEM plans from "Hisense, TCL and Philips" plus platform commitments from "Peacock and Canal+." On new revenue streams beyond devices, Yeaman said, "we are beginning to generate revenue from content platforms," highlighting the video distribution program where "Sharp and SK Planet" joined as licensors, and Dolby OptiView wins including "Genius Sports" and "William Hill" using OptiView for horse racing. Senior VP & CFO Robert Park said, "Revenue for the quarter came in at $396 million," and "Non-GAAP earnings per share was $1.37," while also noting Dolby "repurchased $65 million of common stock" and ended with "cash and investments of approximately $675 million."

Park said, "We continue to expect non-GAAP earnings per share to be between $4.30 and $4.45," and added, "This guidance implies operating ma...

The new MP is right that parliament’s drinking culture is fundamentally weird. But to change it, we need to reset the whole institution Seven o’clock on a Monday night and I am standing in the House of Commons, nursing a glass of vinegary white wine. All around me are people doing the same, though it’s polite sipping rather than getting sloshed. Waiters ferry bottles between the terrace function rooms, where MPs are hosting dinners or campaign launches like the one I’m at. Between the clanging division bells summoning MPs for votes that will go on tonight until gone 11pm, the Strangers’ bar is doing its usual trade.

Training ground fun, rock star fans and a Christmas party in Copenhagen were ingredients in Leicester’s 2016 triumph I remember in January, February that season Riyad Mahrez asked: “What do you think we can achieve?” I laughed, but didn’t say anything. Riyad said: “You know, you know.” I am a very pragmatic man … I knew we could do something special, but not to win the Premier League. Now people everywhere recognise me – people from the US, Canada and Asia ask to take pictures: “Leicester! The legend!” Unbelievable. It was a story that was something special for the world.

Bright green, tangy and tender, this cake is a delicious way to sing in the spring There is a particular green that belongs to spring: pale and luminous, it’s softer than the dark foliage of winter, and quieter than the glossy abundance of summer herbs.

Bright green, tangy and tender, this cake is a delicious way to sing in the spring There is a particular green that belongs to spring: pale and luminous, it’s softer than the dark foliage of winter, and quieter than the glossy abundance of summer herbs. Spinach, the colour of new growth, captures this moment perfectly. Tender and almost impossibly vivid, this cake loses its metallic edge in the heat of the oven, leaving a gentle, vegetal brightness. Baked in a shallow tin and spread with cream cheese icing, when sliced into squares, it produces the perfect ratio of cake to icing and tastes uncommonly good. Continue reading...

Democracy campaigners say men of all political stripes are likely to dominate local government, with women’s views on issues from social care to bin collections sidelined by the huge gap between the numbers of male and female candidates.

The U.S. Federal Reserve kept interest rates on hold as officials consider the implications of elevated oil prices on efforts to contain inflation. James Marple, Associate Vice President and Senior Economist with TD Bank Group, discusses the impact of the oil shock and whether rates may have to stay on hold longer than previously expected. Transcript Anthony Okolie: As widely expected, the US Federal Reserve kept its benchmark interest rate unchanged. Joining me now to discuss the latest decision is TD Senior Economist James Marple. And James, what stood out to you today? James Marple: Well, no change in the decision itself. They talked about, obviously, the Strait of Hormuz and the oil price shock, and how much uncertainty that's created for the outlook. That was certainly front and center. But not really any changes to the statement. They kept the characterization of interest rates exactly as it was, and even their forward guidance. The, perhaps, most interesting thing was that there were four total dissents in the statement. And that's the most there have been since 1992. One was the obvious one, Stephen Miran, who dissented, wanted a 1/4 rate cut. But then there were three dissents from regional Fed governors that wanted a little bit of forward language that suggests, perhaps, an easing bias. And that's the way it was characterized in terms of their dissent. They wanted that removed from the statement. So, more hawkish in tone there just on the dissents more than anything in the statement itself. Anthony Okolie: OK. With that backdrop, we still have the US-Iran conflict. It's still unresolved. Energy prices are still elevated. How worried should the US be about stagflation risk? James Marple: Well, I'm not sure I'd call it stagflation, per se. When people hear stagflation, they really think of the 1970s and the real strong run-up in prices and unemployment at the same time. So inflation and unemployment were rising. I'd be more concerned about inflation sticking...

STORY: Apple on Thursday touted blowout demand for its flagship iPhone 17 and the MacBook Neo that helped power a solid sales forecast sending its shares up nearly 4% after hours. The tech giant's executives said they expect sales growth of up to 17% in the current fiscal third quarter. That's above Wall Street estimates of 9.5%, according to LSEG data. In the second quarter ended March 28, sales and profits were at around $111 billion and $2 per share, above analyst expectations. In the latest quarter, sales of the iPhone, still the company's best-selling product, were $56.9 billion, slightly less than estimates. CEO Tim Cook said iPhone sales were held back in the quarter by supply constraints for the device's advanced processor chips. Mac sales, which included several weeks of Neo sales, were $8.4 billion, beating expectations. Analysts believe the Neo could help Apple crack a new $20 billion market for lower-priced laptops. In the fiscal second quarter, Apple’s existing inventory of memory chips helped it weather rising prices. But memory costs will catch up to Apple starting in the current quarter ending in June. Cook, in a conference call with analysts, said they believe it will "drive an increasing impact" on the business.
