Allegro MicroSystems (ALGM) witnessed a jump in share price last session on above-average trading volume. The latest trend in earnings estimate revisions for the stock doesn't suggest further strength down the road.
Allegro MicroSystems' overexposure to a stagnant automotive segment has limited growth and operating leverage, resulting in a disappointing stock performance over the last 5 years. The expansion of autonomy, AI data centers, and humanoids will serve as a growth accelerant for ALGM, as more of its chips will be needed per product. I am bullish on ALGM and set a price target of $118/share based on management hitting its 3-5 year guidance of mid-teens growth, which will drive operating leverage to 32% margins.
