AI-Fueled Surge Keeps Broadcom in Spotlight, But Is the Price Right?
Broadcom posted a 29% year-over-year revenue rise to $19.3B in Q1, with AI revenue up 106% to $8.4B and free cash flow of about $8B, while guiding for 47% YoY revenue growth in Q2 and AI revenue of $10.7B. The stock has surged and trades around 70x earnings, reflecting lofty expectations, and the article cautions that valuation leaves little margin for error if the AI cycle slows. Concentration risk with a few large customers and the need for sustained revenue/EPS growth over the next five years add to the risk, suggesting Broadcom may not be a buy at today’s price despite its strong fundamentals.
