On June 25, Semtech rose 6.41% in regular trading, trading at $156.72/share, with turnover of $68.36 million. The stock rebounded sharply as the broader semiconductor sector staged a strong recovery, with Micron Technology surging 13.75% and Intel gaining 1.09%, lifting sentiment across the chip space.
On the fundamental side, Semtech previously reported fiscal Q1 adjusted earnings per share of $0.51, beating the consensus estimate of $0.45 by 13.33%. Net income attributable to the parent company grew 37.31% year-over-year. The company also guided Q2 adjusted EPS of $0.59 to $0.63, well above analysts' expectations of $0.51, with revenue projected at $323 million to $333 million versus the prior consensus of $300.63 million. Following these results, Morgan Stanley raised its price target on Semtech to $175 from $155 while maintaining an Equalweight rating.
The current advance represents a technical recovery after the stock declined over 6% on June 23 amid a sector-wide selloff, with the share price still trading below the $175 analyst target.
