On August 5, ARM Holdings fell 3.13% in regular trading, trading at 270.415 USD/share, with turnover of $373 million. The decline extends profit-taking that emerged after the stock surged approximately 15% in the prior session.
Multiple institutions recently cut their price targets on the stock in rapid succession. Bank of America slashed its target from $460 to $260, Royal Bank of Canada lowered from $475 to $340, UBS reduced from $360 to $320, and Wells Fargo trimmed from $350 to $280. The FactSet consensus mean target now stands at just $291.87. Despite Q1 adjusted EPS of $0.45 beating the $0.40 estimate by 12.5% and Q2 revenue guidance of approximately $1.38 billion exceeding the $1.34 billion consensus, the current share price is approaching most analysts valuation ceilings. Concerns over slowing smartphone business growth further weighed on sentiment, prompting continued selling from profit-takers.
