UBS는 2018년 DRAM ASP가8% 증가예상. 삼증 황가야? 넌 거꾸로 가니?
Micron’s Earnings Expected to Rise in 2018
Chin applauded Micron’s plans to retire $2.25 billion of its debt, funding it with proceeds from a recent equity offering and cash already on hand. He expects the firm to reach net cash positive by the end of 2018.
Remaining upbeat on the red-hot memory chip space, Chin no longer sees either DRAM prices or Micron’s earnings falling next year, although he does expect a correction materializing in 2019. The analyst significantly increased forecasts for the next two years, driven largely by DRAM chip average selling price (ASP) set to gain 8% in 2018. The UBS analyst foresees Micron posting earnings per share (EPS) up 50% next year to $7.50. In 2019, due to a forecast 19% reduction in DRAM prices, Chin expects Micron’s per-share profit to drop off to $6.55. The analyst was previously forecasting a 32% drop in DRAM prices in 2019.
The upbeat note echoes recent reports from analysts such as Instinet’s Romit Shah, who lifted his price target to $50 earlier this week. Last week, Barclays analyst Blayne Curtis increased his price target to $60 per share, highlighting positive pricing trends that will last into next year for DRAM and NAND.
