THESIS
Marvell is a focused data-center infrastructure semi franchise compounding at 40% NTM growth driven by custom AI silicon design wins ramping at hyperscalers.
Bull lever: Data Center revenue $1.83B in Q1 (76% of total) grew 27% YoY and 11% QoQ; Q2 guide $2.7B implies +35% YoY acceleration; 20+ custom silicon design wins land production FY28-FY29.
Key risk: Customer concentration in top-3 hyperscalers (AWS Trainium, Microsoft, Google); SBC at 8.6% of revenue dilutes 1.5% share count per year; valuation 47x forward leaves no room for AI-narrative reversal.
KEY METRICS - Q1 FY2027
- Revenue: $2.42B (+27.6% YoY)
- EPS: $0.80 (vs $0.75 est, +6.7% beat)
- Operating margin: 32.4%
- Q2 FY27 guide: $2.7B revenue / $0.93 EPS midpoint (vs $2.5B Street)
- Data Center: $1.83B = 76% of revenue, +27% YoY
