Fabrinet: Get Out Or Trim Before The Hype Ends
Summary FN delivered record-breaking growth, especially in datacenter interconnect, with demand outpacing supply and strong momentum into FY2027. Despite robust business fundamentals, FN now trades at over 50x forward P/E, more than double its multiple from two years ago. FN's valuation premium is not justified by its growth or profitability metrics versus peers, which trade at 22–32x forward P/E. What's interesting to me is that FN trades at 2x times higher valuation than the likes of NVDA, GOOG, or AMZN. Which are some of the best businesses ever created. I recommend a strong sell on FN, urging investors to trim or exit positions due to overvaluation risk. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

Fabrinet: Struggling To Kick On
Summary The Fabrinet stock has struggled to make any headway over the past year, and the Q2 results which came out last week failed to lift sentiment. We cover some of the major sub-plots of the earnings event and ascertain why weakness has persisted despite a strong beat and a lift in guidance at the headline level. On a forward P/E basis, Fabrinet is still priced at a slight premium to its historical average, but that premium can be mitigated by the sturdy earnings growth on offer. Despite weak cash flow generation, the subdued market-cap makes the current FCF yield of +4% look better than the historical average of around 3%. Fabrinet's short, medium, long-term and relative strength charts don't reflect well on its prospects. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaStability and Growth of Payments
