April 23 (Reuters) - STMicroelectronics on Thursday reported first-quarter results above estimates, pointing to signs of recovery in its key semiconductor markets, and forecast further growth in the second quarter.
The Franco-Italian chipmaker reported revenue of $3.10 billion for the first three months of the year, versus the $3.04 billion expected by analysts polled by LSEG. Operating income was $171 million, above market expectations of $165.8 million.
"In Q1, despite the macroeconomic uncertainty, we saw improving demand with strong booking and normalized inventory in distribution", STMicroelectronics' CEO Jean-Marc Chery said in a statement.
STMicro is one of Europe's largest chipmakers and a bellwether for the automotive and industrial semiconductors sector, where customers have spent recent years digesting excess, post-pandemic inventory and cutting new orders.
The company also forecast second-quarter revenue of $3.45 billion, above market expectations of $3.21 billion.
