Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd (CRDO) saw its stock soar 6.90% during intraday trading on Wednesday, staging a sharp reversal from earlier losses.
The surge came after multiple Wall Street institutions raised their price targets for the company, with Needham increasing its target to $275, JPMorgan to $250, and Roth Capital to $300. The upgrades were supported by Credo's impressive fiscal fourth-quarter results, which showed revenue surging 157% year-over-year to $437 million and adjusted earnings per share beating estimates by 12.6%.
Additionally, the broader optical communication sector showed strength, and accelerating demand for AI high-speed interconnect products provided further momentum. This positive news helped the stock overcome pre-market weakness caused by executive share sales and broader semiconductor sector pressure.
