Investing.com - Citi has raised its price target on Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) to $52.00 from $37.00 while maintaining a Neutral rating on the stock. The company, currently trading at a P/E ratio of 25.5x, has demonstrated impressive revenue growth of 82.5% over the last twelve months, according to InvestingPro data.

Super Micro management has indicated that current commitments should materialize over the next two quarters as constraints on Blackwell GPU supply ease, according to Citi's analysis.
Despite growth expectations, Citi expressed concerns about margins due to increased competitive efforts from DELL and HPE, which could limit margin expansion for Super Micro Computer.
The higher price target reflects an increased P/E multiple of 13.5x applied to Citi's FY27 estimates, up from 9-10x previously, which the firm attributed to an uptick in multiples for AI peers and broader market multiple movements.
