With Skyworks posting recent gains but 1-year and 5-year returns still in decline, along with a discount to some valuation estimates, the key question is simple: is this a reset that creates opportunity, or is the market already pricing in future growth?
With Skyworks closing at $66.27 against a narrative fair value estimate of $83.63, the valuation gap is tied to very specific long term margin and earnings expectations.
Analysts expect earnings to reach $520.7 million (and earnings per share of $3.56) by about September 2028, up from $396.2 million today. However, there is a considerable amount of disagreement amongst the analysts, with the most bullish expecting $705.5 million in earnings and the most bearish expecting $251 million.
Curious what kind of revenue mix, margin lift, and earnings multiple would support that gap to fair value? The narrative leans on specific growth, profitability, and valuation hurdles that need to line up. The full breakdown shows exactly how those moving parts connect.
Result: Fair Value of $83.63 (UNDERVALUED)
