What the analyst said

Truist Securities analyst William Stein reiterated a Buy rating and $279 price target on AMD (NASDAQ: AMD).

“The emerging DC/AI “trusted partner” reveals $20+ EPS power.

Stock remains cheap; What you need to know: We believe AMD is growing EPS at a ~45% CAGR through CY30 and trades at only ~10x CY30 EPS power.

At its analyst day today AMD revealed a $1T TAM, and a financial model that calls for 35% total sales growth, expanding GPM & OPM, and 45% EPS growth.

Key driver is server accelerators, which customer orders & future indications suggest an 80% CAGR.

Of course, execution is one risk, but the bigger ones relate to customers’ ability to power and to fund the build-out. Management exuded confidence on these matters, mitigating our concerns somewhat.

No change to our nearterm model or $279 PT, but the stock looks cheap vs. its LT earnings power. BUY.”
