-- 独立系調査会社CFRAは、に対し、以下の調査レポートを提供しました。CFRAのアナリストは、以下のように見解をまとめています。目標株価を240ドル引き上げ、2,094ドルとします。これは、2027年度(6月期)のEPS予想の41.5倍に相当し、同業他社と同水準ですが、KLACの過去3年間の平均(約25倍)を上回っています。これは、AI事業の著しい成長と市場における可視性の向上によるものです。2026年度のEPS予想を0.85ドル引き上げ、36.96ドルとします。2027年度は4.10ドル引き上げ、50.45ドルとします。2028年度は3.20ドル引き上げ、60.95ドルとします。顧客サポートと市場における可視性の向上により、KLACは2027年度の成長率についてコメントすることができ、その見通しは2026年度と2027年度ともに市場コンセンサスを大きく上回る、非常に印象的なものでした(当社は+22%と予想、市場予想は+15%)。重要な点として、同社は2027年までの生産を支えるメモリ供給の確保能力についても「非常に満足」しており、その頃には新たな供給によって制約が緩和されると考えています。メモリ価格の高騰は、メモリメーカーがより多くのプロセス制御装置を購入するよう促しているAI関連の需要を反映したものでもあり、2027年度にはメモリ顧客が半導体プロセス制御セグメントの売上の大部分を占めると推定しています(2026年度は約30%)。これにより、最先端の分野で収益の多様化が促進されるでしょう。

Research Alert: Oled Delivers Disappointing Results, Stable Guidance As Demand Remains Weak
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:OLED reported challenging Q1 results with revenue declining 14.5% Y/Y to $142M, well short of consensus expectations ($161M), while EPS of $0.76 fell 44% Y/Y and missed Street estimates ($1.20). The weakness was broad-based, with material sales down 2.9% to $84M and royalty/license fees declining 26.4% to $54M, representing the largest drag on quarterly performance. Management lowered 2026 revenue guidance to $650M from a prior $675M view, citing weak demand conditions. CFO noted near-term market conditions have become more measured while maintaining confidence in longer-term growth prospects, including Gen 8.6 capacity additions in Korea and China expected online this year. We agree with management's longer-term optimism but note weak current conditions may slow new OLED fab ramp timelines. We think the revised Q2-Q4 implied performance ($508M) creates room for downside risk below company projections, as the environment remains volatile.
