Let's take a closer look at a couple of our picks from the screened companies

Broadcom (NasdaqGS:AVGO)

Overview: Broadcom Inc. is a global company that designs, develops, and supplies a range of semiconductor devices, specializing in complex digital and mixed-signal CMOS-based devices and analog III-V based products, with a market capitalization of approximately $747.36 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is generated from two primary segments: Infrastructure Software, which brought in $13.76 billion, and Semiconductor Solutions including Intellectual Property Licensing, contributing $28.86 billion.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 16.1%

Broadcom Inc., currently priced at US$1605.53, is trading below our estimated fair value of US$1913.49, suggesting undervaluation based on discounted cash flow analysis. Despite a high debt level and shareholder dilution over the past year, Broadcom's return on equity is expected to be very high at 41.6% in three years. The company's earnings are projected to grow by 27.51% annually, outpacing the U.S market forecast of 14.7%. Recent product updates and federal approvals highlight ongoing innovation and expansion into secure cloud services, supporting its financial growth trajectory despite a recent dip in profit margins from 38.7% to 24%.

Marvell Technology (NasdaqGS:MRVL)

Overview: Marvell Technology, Inc., along with its subsidiaries, offers data infrastructure semiconductor solutions from the data center core to the network edge and has a market capitalization of approximately $60.51 billion.

Operations: The company generates its revenue primarily through the design, development, and sale of integrated circuits, totaling approximately $5.35 billion.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 18.5%

Marvell Technology, priced at US$69.9, is currently valued below its calculated fair value of US$85.81, indicating a potential undervaluation based on cash flow analysis. Despite this, the company is not significantly undervalued as it trades just 18.5% under fair value. Analysts predict a price increase of 28.4%, reflecting optimism in its financial trajectory as Marvell transitions to profitability with expected robust revenue growth (16.6% annually) outpacing the U.S market average (8.6%). However, substantial insider selling over the past quarter could signal caution among investors about its near-term prospects.

Operations: The company generates $7.41 billion from its Internet Software & Services segment.

Estimated Discount To Fair Value: 13.2%

Shopify, currently trading at US$66.05 against a fair value of US$76.11, appears modestly undervalued based on discounted cash flow analysis. Expected to achieve profitability within three years, the company's revenue growth forecast at 16.9% annually is nearly double that of the broader U.S market. Recent strategic partnerships and expansions into new markets like Target Plus could enhance its business model and market presence, potentially supporting its financial growth trajectory despite a current net loss reported in Q1 2024.
