Stifel has revised its price target for Alpha & Omega Semiconductors (AOSL, Financial), reducing it from $30 to $18 while maintaining a Sell rating on the stock. This adjustment comes amid concerns about the broader semiconductor industry's outlook, influenced by tariff impacts and potential cyclical downturns.
As we enter the first quarter earnings season, Stifel holds an overarching perspective that companies within the Analog, Connectivity, and Processors sectors will likely report results that align with expectations for the March quarter. However, there is a more cautious outlook for the June quarter, as ongoing tariff issues could weigh heavily on future performance.
Although it remains uncertain how tariffs will ultimately affect the sector in terms of their magnitude, duration, and scope, Stifel's analysis suggests a heightened risk of a cyclical decline across the semiconductor industry. This assessment comes as stakeholders await more clarity on how tariffs will evolve and influence the market dynamics in coming quarters.
