ON: 2026 Guidance And Buybacks Will Likely Reinforce Ongoing Overvaluation Risk

ON Semiconductor: Overbought Ahead Of Slow Fundamental Recovery, Downgrade To Hold
Summary While ON's AI data center revenue may double in 2026, it remains a small portion of total revenues, with top-line impact from new design wins expected mainly from 2027 onward. Their FQ1'26 performance and the FQ2'26 guidance appear to be underwhelming as well, with the recent rally occurring overly fast and furious. ON's anticipated AI-driven growth prospects have already been priced into the premium P/E of 35.1x, beyond historical means while triggering a minimal margin of safety. While share repurchases may drive adj EPS growth, the stock has been overbought while offering a reduced upside potential to my long-term price target of $127.60. ON is downgraded to Hold after a +44% rally from the recent March 2026 bottom. Do not chase this rally over the cliff. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaNarrative Update • Apr 21

ON Semiconductor: More Pain Ahead, Pending Growth Catalysts
Summary As highlighted by numerous analog market players, ON is likely to face further recovery headwinds, as similarly observed in its FQ4'24 miss and underwhelming FQ1'25 guidance. Combined with the heightened inventory levels and deteriorating gross profit margins, it is unsurprising that the stock has been sold off as it has. As observed during the worst PC demand destruction in 2022 and the memory chip inventory glut in 2023, the analog chip market bottoming is unlikely to occur anytime soon. With the recent JFET acquisition only expected to yield a $1.3B in data center addressable market, ON's prospects remain mixed, worsened by the potential impact of increased import tariffs on its bottom lines. With our historical Buy ratings failing to perform as expected and the stock charting lower lows/ highs, it remains to be seen when we may see a floor materialize.

ON Semiconductor: The Market's Overreaction Is Your Opportunity, Q4 Earnings Preview
Summary ON Semiconductor's recent market struggles mask its long-term potential, driven by its strategic moves in silicon carbide (SiC) and vertical integration. The company's acquisition of Qorvo’s SiC JFET business and its self-sufficiency in SiC production provide a competitive edge amid supply chain uncertainties. Despite short-term volatility and inconsistent earnings, ON's focus on SiC technology and partnerships like Volkswagen signal strong growth potential in EV and industrial markets. Valuation metrics suggest a contrarian buying opportunity, with projected EPS growth and cash flow performance indicating a potential 15-20% annual compounding through 2030.

ON Semiconductor: Cyclical Buy, Unaffected By DeepSeek
Summary ON Semiconductor (onsemi) is a Buy due to its attractive valuation, strong long-term growth potential, and plans to return 50% of FCF to shareholders. The company focuses on power management and sensing technologies, serving automotive and industrial markets, which are less affected by AI chip demand fluctuations. Despite current cyclical downturns, onsemi's investments in capacity expansion are behind, setting the stage for significant free cash flow growth and share repurchases. Near-term risks include continued demand weakness and a downtrending stock chart, but longer-term prospects remain promising, with upside potential of nearly 40% in two years.

ON Semiconductor: Slow Recovery But A Long Opportunity
Summary ON Semiconductor is currently undervalued and will face a slow recovery in 2025. I currently consider the company as a hold, but a potential attractive opportunity for long-term investors. ON's strategic position in its end-markets makes the company a possible industry leader in the Silicon Carbide chip-making business. The company's strong financials and cost optimization strategies will improve the profitability of the business. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Dec 13
ON Semiconductor: Operational Leverage Awaits Market Recovery
Summary ON Semiconductor appears undervalued due to its exposure to the SiC market and superior supply chain management, despite weak current demand and low fab utilization. Automotive chip companies thrived during the pandemic due to chip scarcity but are now facing challenges from prolonged inventory digestion. Valuation analysis suggests ON Semiconductor offers better value compared to peers, with potential upside if market conditions improve and utilization rates increase. I rate ON Semiconductor as a hold, awaiting signs of market rebound or stronger demand, with a potential re-rating if the stock price falls below $60.

ON Semiconductor Q3: Remain Soft In Automotive And Industrial
Summary I reiterate a “Strong Buy” rating for ON Semiconductor Corporation with a one-year target price of $120 per share, despite current market challenges. ON Semiconductor faces a downcycle with a 19.2% revenue decline and 37.3% drop in adjusted operating profits due to weak end-market demands. Long-term recovery is expected, driven by electrification trends and growth in the SiC market, with a forecasted 10% annual revenue growth from FY25 onwards. Key risks include volatility in the Chinese automotive market and pricing pressures from inventory destocking activities among smaller competitors.

ON Semiconductor: Pretty Impressive Performance For A Down Cycle
Summary ON Semiconductor Corporation was one of the first to forecast a slowdown in demand, allowing it to quickly adjust its factory utilization rates, helping it control costs. Q3 results show stable revenue (on a sequential basis) despite being down YoY, reinforcing projections of an L-shaped recovery. OnSemi's investment in SiC technology has positioned it as a market leader, especially in EV power applications. OnSemi's low valuation and strategic position in SiC and imaging solutions provide growth potential despite short-term cyclical challenges.

ON Semiconductor: Growth Story Remains Compelling, Thanks To Overly Discounted PEG Ratio
Summary ON's automotive prospects remain bright, attributed to its multi-year LTSAs and diversified offerings across ICE/ Hybrid/ EV platforms. The management already hints at demand stabilization, with demand inflection likely to occur in the second half of the decade. This is attributed to the government's intensified charging investments, the launch of mass-market EV models, and the lower borrowing costs as the Fed pivots. With ON still extremely cheap at FWD PEG non-GAAP ratio of 0.84x while being well positioned to weather the near-term uncertainty, we believe that it remains a compelling Buy. If anything, the second round of EV boom in China from H2'24 onwards may potentially bridge the gap, prior to the second wave of global EV adoption in 2026.

Short Term Liabilities: ON's short term assets ($5.8B) exceed its short term liabilities ($1.2B).
Long Term Liabilities: ON's short term assets ($5.8B) exceed its long term liabilities ($3.5B).
Debt to Equity History and Analysis

Reducing Debt: ON's debt to equity ratio has reduced from 91.5% to 40.7% over the past 5 years.
Debt Coverage: ON's debt is well covered by operating cash flow (46.8%).
Interest Coverage: ON earns more interest than it pays, so coverage of interest payments is not a concern.
