Micron 2027 EPS Estimates Jump to $155 on 16 Multiyear AI Memory Deals

3 articles · Updated · The Motley Fool · Jul 5

Summary

  • Wall Street's consensus forecast for Micron's fiscal 2027 earnings rose to $155 a share from $98 after the company disclosed 16 multiyear customer agreements with binding volume commitments.
  • Those contracts are unusual for the memory industry, where deals have often been short term, and include floor prices that could soften the sector's usual boom-bust swings while improving cash-flow visibility.
  • Micron's latest quarter reinforced that optimism: fiscal third-quarter revenue surged 345% to $41.4 billion and adjusted profit climbed more than 1,200% to $25.11 a share as NAND and DRAM prices more than doubled.
  • Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said in June that shortages across wafers, packaging and silicon photonics would persist for several years, supporting Micron's view that AI-driven memory demand will stay elevated well beyond current supply constraints.
