Valuation

Valuation signal

Significantly undervalued
Price
$49.25
Fair value
$81.39
Gap to fair value
−39%

In our model the price counts as cheap below $54.26 and expensive above $162.78 (uncertainty very high, based on the price swings of the past year).

The two parts of the fair value come to $70.94 (cash-flow model) and $91.84 (industry comparison), and the gap between them shows how uncertain the estimate is. The price is below both.

Calculated with a cost of equity of 12.8%. At 13.8% the fair value would be $77.48, at 11.8% it would be $86.32.

Company outlook raised

Share price after the results: +19.6%

Fiscal 2027 growth outlook raised from the preliminary view given last quarter, with record net sales expected and advanced computing net sales growing about 40% at the midpoint.

Supporting passage from the call, verbatim
“For advanced computing, we expect full year net sales to grow approximately 40% at the midpoint, plus or minus 10 percentage points, driven by continued momentum in non-hyperscale AI infrastructure, partially offset by the absence of edge sales and lower expected hyperscale sales.”

The outlook is not part of the score and not a recommendation to buy or sell.
