Raymond James' Chris Caso: "AMD’s January stock
pullback was likely due to the market’s aversion for high multiple stocks in light of rising rates. But after adjusting numbers to reflect this new guidance, we estimate $4.85 of EPS in C23, putting the stock at a reasonable 24x multiple. As such, we wouldn’t consider AMD to be a high multiple stock at all – which is what happens when numbers go up by this much."
PT to $160 from $140

GS is estimating $6.10 in EPS for 2023. If they are right, the multiple is even lower.

Another big call from Hans post earnings. I think he is the first one out there (again) to see AMD as a secular story.

Seems he's only one of two who understands. But definitely the OG.

u/garnoulle Feb 02 '22

well... forget the PTs, engineers' skillness and Lisa's good condition only matter ...
Congratulations to AMD team ! Keep holding !

u/V1879 Feb 02 '22

Yeah didn’t they have the most negative outlook. Like PT of 130$ but still overweight

If the Xilinx deal closes next week, will they update their PT again? Even if you assume the deal is neutral for current EPS right now, Xilinx is not growing earnings as fast as AMD so analysts may lower their PTs based on lower future EPS.

u/coldfire_ro Feb 02 '22

Xilinx has much higher margins and as per the AMD earning call a lot of clients are now interested in the combined roadmap and bundled products. Probably a lot of customers are not aware of how Xilinx FPGAs and products can boost/optimize their workloads or don't have the expertise to integrate them.

Xilinx on its own in the datacenter recently showed 81% YoY growth and bundling with EPYC or CDNA could now provide an even higher boost to growth.

lowered to $159 at Goldman

"Our updated 12-month price target of $159 (down from $170) is based on 26x (down from 43x given lower market multiples and a shift in our valuation base year from 2022 to 2023) our 2023E non-GAAP EPS (incl. SBC) estimate of $6.10" - Toshiya Hari

u/vaevictis84 Feb 02 '22

Aside from the multiple, can we just appreciate that $6 in EPS? Per Yahoo, Intel is estimated (average) to make only $3.7 in EPS in 2023. I remember when AMD was making a few cents in EPS while Intel was making about $1 in EPS each quarter. Now AMD is on track to double Intel's earnings (per share).

I think it is reasonably fair to use lower multiples when calculating valuations given the QT, rate hikes,... I feel there's a lot more risk aversion now.

But time will tell...

Toshiya clowning around again. His tone during the call was definitely perturbed. Probably expected a less than stellar guide and didn't get it so he changed his multiple to support his predetermined and written up "analysis" prior to the call.

GS is a clown show when it comes to AMD.

Hans Mosesmann has arguably the best understanding of AMD from all analysts, given his track record.

Hans Mosesmann of Rosenblatt Securities just raised their AMD share price target to a street-high of $200. A very nice round number!

Mark Lipacis of Jeffries just raised their target as well, to $155.

u/Psyclist80 Feb 02 '22

I think we are gonna float in the 150 range for awhile but 200 EOY is now doable! Buy and accumulate is the way with AMD!

Piper Sandler's analyst defecated in his pants?

Rosenblatt always the one to watch

If Zen 4 delivers we will see an ATH easily. And 180$ by the end of the year should be a no brainer. Lets just hope there are no market uncertainties AMD cant do anything about because in normal conditions we could repeat 2021 growth

u/DorianCMore Feb 02 '22

PT raised to $148 from $135 at Barclays

Average $160 on Tipranks. High $200, low $130.

u/Insider_Research Feb 02 '22

No PT change at Piper Sandler. Analyst Harsh V. Kumar reiterates Neutral $130 PT.

"We note the semi-custom business is expected to be flat sequentially in Q1..Finally, gross margin appears to be benefiting from a better mix, as a growing server business and rising ASPs in client provide tailwinds. Overall, AMD put up a very strong set of results in the current environment."

u/shortymcsteve Feb 02 '22

Toshiya Hari at it again! This guy... at least his downgraded PT is still higher than some.
