Christopher Danely has given his Hold rating due to a combination of factors related to AMD’s growth prospects and valuation. AMD is expected to see significant growth in its AI business, particularly through its GPU offerings, which are projected to capture a substantial portion of the AI compute total addressable market. The company is also poised to benefit from increased demand from existing and new customers, including major players like Microsoft, Meta, and Oracle.
However, despite these positive growth indicators, the valuation of AMD remains a concern. The current price target is set at $180, which is 37 times the estimated earnings per share for 2026, slightly above the historical average. This high valuation, despite the promising growth outlook, suggests that the stock may be fairly valued at present, justifying the Hold rating.
In another report released on August 19, Bernstein also maintained a Hold rating on the stock with a $140.00 price target.
