What the analyst said

Stifel analyst Brian Chin raised the price target on Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) to $195 (from $173) while maintaining a Buy rating.

“Micron F4Q(Aug) results exceeded guidance, which the company raised last month. Mix was a key factor, with QQ growth led by hyperscale demand for high-value DRAM products.

Cloud and enterprise server demand for NAND data storage has subsequently improved.

On broadening demand, Micron guided F1Q(Nov) well above ours/consensus estimates (including GMs +580bps to 51.5%), reflecting favorable mix and pricing leverage.

Yet we view the size/significance and margin structure of Micron’s cloud/hyperscale memory segment (newly disclosed) as the main story here.

Cloud memory was 40% of F4Q sales on 59% GMs, and combined with enterprise OEM datacenter was mid-50% of sales on mid-50% GMs.

We believe these disclosures will help investors better appreciate the structural shift in Micron’s revenue composition (majority datacenter now, not consumer).

Following our estimate increases we increase our price target to $195, or 12x our new FY26 EPS.”
