Diodes (Nasdaq: DIOD), the analog semiconductor supplier, has been initiated with a buy rating and $135 price target by Bank of America (BofA), which expects the company to grow earnings per share at a 58% annual rate from 2026 to 2028, well ahead of the 35% forecast for analog chip peers. The target rests on 17 times 2028 pro forma earnings per share, which reflects normalized earnings.
DIOD's $250M ElevATE acquisition adds higher-margin analog products and deeper ATE exposure as revenue and margins recover.
PARR, DIOD and HRTG made it to the Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) momentum stocks list on August 13, 2026.
