CLSA Starts CXMT at Outperform With 84.70 Yuan Target as DRAM Share Seen at 14%

2 articles · Updated · CNBC · Oct 11

Summary

  • 84.70 yuan is CLSA's new price target for CXMT, implying more than 60% upside from Friday's close as it initiated coverage with an outperform rating.
  • CLSA tied that call to rising memory prices and tighter global supply, forecasting CXMT's bit-shipment market share will climb to 14% next year from 12% in 2026 and 9% last year.
  • Overseas demand is central to the thesis: CLSA said CXMT can expand beyond China, echoing Bernstein's view that foreign OEMs may use its DRAM in products sold outside the U.S.
  • Investor focus now turns to Oct. 31 earnings, with BNP Paribas expecting September-quarter revenue to rise 22% sequentially, though it keeps a neutral rating and a lower 48.70 yuan target.
