On November 9, AXT Inc rose 8.55% in Regular Trading, trading at $42.22 per share, with turnover of $181 million.
The move was supported by a combination of stronger-than-expected quarterly results and a recent bullish analyst initiation that reinforced confidence in the company’s medium-term growth outlook.
Previously disclosed third-quarter results showed adjusted EPS of $0.41, ahead of the $0.31 consensus estimate, while revenue reached $73.41 million versus the expected $66.01 million and rose sharply from $28.0 million a year earlier. Separately, Nomura initiated coverage with a Buy rating and a $90 price target. Ongoing market attention to optical communications and compound semiconductor materials also remained part of the backdrop.
