What the analyst said
Piper Sandler analyst David O’Connor reiterated an Overweight rating and $400 price target on Marvell (NASDAQ: MRVL).
“Bloomberg reported post the close that MRVL is in advanced discussions to potentially buy laser supplier Lumentum, with a deal announcement potentially next week.
MRVL is down -9% and LITE up +11% post the close. Strategically we think it would make sense for MRVL.
Optical networking is getting significantly more important in AI, to speed up data transfers and reduce power consumption.
And within optics high powered lasers from LITE are a key enabling technology on the AI chip roadmap. If true and the transaction goes ahead this would be a huge deal for MRVL.
LITE has an EV of just over $80B (pre premium), with MRVL requiring significant equity/debt package to fund the deal.”
