MPWR’s 10.8% Jump: Growth Supports It, Valuation Limits Me

I see the +10.81% move to $1,504.39 as broadly consistent with the growth outlook, not proof of a new fundamental change; without a news feed, I will not assign a cause. Q3 revenue rose 63.1% year over year and net income 50.8%, while consensus expects EPS growth of 58.5% in 2027. At $1,504.39, the 2027 estimated P/E is 32.5x, far below the trailing 82.5x, but still leaves little room for a cyclical earnings disappointment. I also note Q3 net margin fell 1.8 percentage points and free cash flow grew only 12.1%, weaker than sales growth. The median target implies 20.3% upside, though the minimum target is $1,500. The jump does not change my view: I will start a small position, not chase aggressively.
