Morgan Stanley Raises ASMPT Price Target to HK$120, Maintains Overweight Rating

Stock News15:06

Morgan Stanley has issued a research report indicating that ASMPT's revenue guidance for the fourth quarter of last year increased by 14% year-on-year to US$500 million, a target the firm believes is achievable. The investment bank has raised its target price for the stock from HK$100 to HK$120, reiterating an "Overweight" rating. The report forecasts that first-quarter revenue will exceed typical seasonal levels, reaching HK$4 billion, with its semiconductor solutions segment growing 8% quarter-on-quarter. The firm also believes ASMPT is well-positioned for long-term growth, driven by businesses such as CoWoS-L and high-bandwidth memory (HBM). Morgan Stanley has made minor adjustments to its earnings per share forecast for the company, primarily due to an expected strong first-quarter performance. It projects full-year revenue growth will accelerate from 7% last year to 22% this year, benefiting from increased capital expenditure in the OSAT business, and expects this revenue growth momentum to continue through 2027.
