Intact: The reason to own it still holds.
Broadcom grows AI semiconductor revenue rapidly, hitting $10.8 billion in Q2 2026. It has strong partnerships with Apple and Google for custom chips. Dividends are steady at $0.65 per share quarterly. The company shows consistent earnings beats and strong revenue growth.
Competition in AI chips is rising, pressuring growth. Insider selling and valuation concerns could weigh on the stock. The recent 23% drawdown signals market doubts about sustainability of growth.
The price is about 3% above our fair value near $364, reflecting roughly 87% revenue growth expected by analysts. Our fair value is 28% below the Street median, indicating more conservative expectations than the broader market.
Breaks if: AI semiconductor revenue falls below $10.8B in Q2 2026
Breaks if: loss or failure to advance TPU development for Google
This is not a price target or investment advice.
A long-form read on the 1–3 year hold thesis. It updates when the weekly evidence changes.
AVGO represents a durable compounder with a focus on AI semiconductor growth and strategic partnerships. The current thesis state is stable, supported by recent earnings beats and consistent dividend payments.
The market currently reflects an expensive valuation compared to peers, with a slight expectations gap. This suggests that while AVGO is priced for strong performance, there is some fragility due to management volatility.
Fundamentals are likely to remain strong, driven by accelerating AI semiconductor revenue growth and ongoing strategic partnerships. However, there is a moderate risk due to past execution issues, though the current miss probability is low.
The thesis hinges on management's ability to maintain guidance and continue delivering strong results. Additionally, external factors like potential Fed rate cuts and performance from sector leaders will be crucial for AVGO's momentum.
