Daily candles, not a live feed. Price series is split-adjusted; total-return mode uses provider-adjusted prices including distributions. The chart does not predict returns.

A great business. At what price?

Test earnings growth against a change in valuation. All multiples below are your assumptions — not current company fundamentals.

Illustrative price CAGR—

CAGR = (1 + EPS growth) × (exit P/E ÷ entry P/E)^(1/years) − 1. Excludes dividends, dilution beyond EPS, taxes and fees. Not a price target. Not suitable for gold, bonds or companies with negative earnings.

Annual figures, not trailing twelve months. No automatic currency/ADR conversion. Cash proxy excludes review of leases, debt service, SBC, acquisitions and cycle. Missing values are not zero.

Company-specific method

DCF to common equity after commitments, debt and dilution; not headline adjusted EPS alone.

Your scenario · not our forecast

Equity-per-share DCF: do not subtract net debt again. Future dilution must already be included in cash-per-share growth. This does not measure analyst consensus. Replacement capex and sustainable terminal cash still require review.

FUNDAMENTAL RESEARCH · 2026-09-06

The investment case, under examination.

A dated research map, not completed valuations. The 25-company portfolio baseline is unchanged; IBM is monitored at 0% outside it. Public facts do not establish an edge: every hypothesis still needs normalized financials, price-implied expectations and independent forward tests.

Hypothesis · not a trading signal

Q2 FY2027 · Published 2026-08-27 · Source checked 2026-09-06

01 / What the issuer reported
Data Center revenue was $2.172bn, up 46% year over year; total revenue was $2.739bn.
02 / Our hypothesis — not established alpha
Custom silicon and optical links may gain content per system; design wins only matter when they become profitable shipments.
03 / What to measure next
Ramp revenue, cash flow, wafer commitments, acquisition costs and fully diluted shares including preferred equity.
04 / What would challenge the thesis
Reassess if program delays or dilution absorb operating gains, or committed supply outruns customer demand.
05 / Appropriate valuation method
DCF to common equity after commitments, debt and dilution; not headline adjusted EPS alone.
06 / Still missing
Missing: program conversion rates and a fully diluted capital-structure bridge.

No measured consensus gap or approved price target. A familiar good business can still be an expensive stock.

Issuer-reported figures, not an independent accounting audit. Review after the next report or material filing. These review triggers are proposed, not automatic sell rules. Weights and paper mandates are unchanged.

Why this position exists

Custom silicon and optical interconnect

Marvell is an option on custom accelerators, optical DSP and rising data movement inside AI clusters.

Principal risk

Design-win timing, customer concentration and competition.
