Robust AI Demand amid Supply Constraint, 1.6T Products Ramp

Maintain Buy with TP of $162 Semtech delivered a F2Q revenue of $341.9mn (+33% YoY, +17% QoQ), beating consensus of $328.6mn, while non -GAAP EPS came in at $0.71, ahead of consensus $0.61. Non -GAAP gross margin expanded to 54.5%, up 150bps QoQ, hitting a new company record for the segment -driven data -center ramp. The company guided F3Q revenue of $410mn, non -GAAP gross margin of 58.3% and non -GAAP EPS of $1.02 -1.08, all above market consensus. Management emphasized extremely strong AI -related demand roughly 3x current supply capacity constrained by silicon and InP wafer/ OSAT capacity, and reiterated that data -center segment growth will remain robust though they discontinued providing explicit segment YoY growth guidance due to supply -side uncertainty. We forecast FY27E/28E EPS of $3.6/$7.4. Our TP of $162 is based on 22x FY28E EPS.

1.6T CopperEdge/FiberEdge ramping up: Semtech's CopperEdge 1.6T ACC solutions entered mass shipment to major hyperscalers in F2Q, moving from sampling to material revenue contribution. FiberEdge 1.6T TIA -driver solutions have commenced initial shipments in the quarter, with management targeting >50% market share within its targeted 1.6T market by end -FY27E. Following the HieFo InP laser acquisition, Semtech advanced vertical integration for TIA, driver, and laser chips to bolster long -term supply resilience, with meaningful laser -chip shipments yet to occur this quarter. A product -mix shift toward high -value 1.6T ACC and optical devices lifted gross margin sequentially to 54.5%.

NPO penetration and hyperscaler AI demand expand long-term TAM : The company deepened participation in industry MSA standardization for LPO and NPO, securing multiple customer design wins and opening incremental market space complementary to pluggable solutions. Management confirmed AI-related customer demand reaches roughly 3x current supply capacity, with growth constrained solely by SiGe/InP wafer and OSAT packaging capacity. Despite suspended explicit segment growth guidance due to supply uncertainty, multi-year hyperscaler demand visibility remains solid, laying a foundation for robust data center business growth throughout FY27E.

Risks: 1) Intensifying competition; 2) Slower 1.6T/NPO Migration; 3) Geopolitical risks.

Valuation and Recommendation

Maintain Buy with TP of $162

We rate Semtech Technology (SMTC US) at Buy and set our TP at $162, based on 22x our FY28E(CY2027) EPS estimate. We adopt FY28E as valuation basis to capitalize on FiberEdge/CopperEdge ramp-up which is the key market focus. We adopt P/E methodology as we believe the market now mainly focuses on the company's earnings outlook.

Semtech's forward P/E valuation was traded at an average of 28x historically, excluding the impact of acquisition in 2023. We derive our target price based on 22x P/E, which is slightly below its mid-cycle level given the recent market expectations reset for CPO/optical. From peers comparison, our target P/E of 22x is below its peers of 45x, while we expect SMTC with opportunities to catch up driven by the earnings upside as well as robust trend of TIA/driver and NPO.
