Applied Materials revises its fourth-quarter outlook for fiscal 2022, projecting net sales of approximately $6.4 billion compared to previous estimates of $6.65 billion.

Consequently, the anticipated non-GAAP EPS is adjusted to between $1.54 and $1.78, down from $1.82 to $2.18. The company expects similar impacts from regulations to persist into early fiscal 2023.
