We adjust our 12-month target to $120 from $140, on a lower revised peer-premium P/E of 64.8x our CY 25 EPS estimate, warranted given our view of growth prospects. We adjust our FY 25 (Mar.) EPS estimate to $1.60 from $1.76 and FY 26’s to $1.92 from $2.00. ARM posts Mar-Q EPS of $0.36, beating the $0.31 consensus. Revenue rose 47%, well ahead of expectations, led by higher royalty (+37%) and licensing sales (+60%). Jun-Q revenue/EPS guide exceeded consensus views, but full-year FY 25 was more tempered (still implies +20% Y/Y growth). The shift towards v9-architecture from v8 remains an opportunity (20% of royalties), which is supporting higher revenue within smartphones and share gain opportunities in automotive/hyperscalers. Although valuation remains a concern, the growth trajectory is extremely attractive (we see +20% annually through FY 27) given cloud share gain from next-gen AI GPUs and CPUs expected to enter the market,

CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows: We raise our 12-month target to $140 from $90, on a peer-premium P/E of 72.7x our CY 25 EPS estimate, warranted given our view of growth prospects. We up our above-consensus FY 25 (Mar.) EPS estimate to $1.76 from $1.60 and FY 26’s to $2.00 from $1.87. Ahead of Mar-Q results expected on May 8, we expect ARM to exceed expectations for both EPS ($0.30) and revenue ($869M), as the company has tailwinds tied to both its mobility and data center end markets, supporting licensing/royalty upside. On the mobility front, we think adoption for ARM’s v9-based architecture has a long runway, which has 2x the royalty rate of its predecessor (only 15% of royalty revenue). With regards to data centers, ARM continues to hold a small share
