Raspberry Pi Holdings PLC (LSE:RPI) delivers its maiden full-year results as a listed company on Wednesday, 2 April.
In its last update, in January, the UK DIY-computing outfit said it was expecting demand to “build gradually” through the coming year with its market described as “challenging” currently but the medium-term outlook felt to be “extremely positive”.
The company reported it had shipped 7 million units of its single-board computers and compute modules in 2024 and expects to report underlying profit (adjusted EBITDA) of at least $36 million.
Raspberry Pi had $45 million of cash at the end of December.
Ahead of the results, analysts at Jefferies tempered near-term expectations while flagging potential upside from edge AI – eventually.

Analysts said they felt lower unit volumes are hitting 2024 and 2025 numbers, but the long-term story – involving “edge AI” and DeepSeek’s low-cost inferencing models – is still intact.
The earnings outlook for 2025 will be in focus, and Jefferies is forecasting sales of $291 million and adjusted EBITDA of $42.4 million off the back of continued destocking, which they think makes 2025 more of a “transition year”.
these morons are going to realize one can’t do any kind of training they assume should be trivial on an SBC like the PI. Then the stock is going to crash and we will be left with a ruined Raspberry Pi company.
