On September 2, Marvell Technology fell 3.08% in regular trading, trading at $204.24/share with turnover of $606 million, extending a persistent downtrend since the company reported fiscal Q2 results on August 27.
The decline reflects the ongoing aftermath of a post-earnings selloff that began when shares plunged over 10% on August 28. Although the company delivered a double beat — adjusted EPS of $0.94 versus the $0.93 consensus and revenue of $2.74 billion versus $2.72 billion expected — investor concerns over the timing of revenue recognition from its Google custom chip deal weighed heavily. The Q3 guidance of $3.15 billion in revenue also topped estimates of $3.04 billion, yet failed to satisfy elevated expectations after the stock had nearly tripled year-to-date heading into earnings.
Analyst sentiment remains divided. Argus raised its price target to $280 from $250 while maintaining a buy rating, whereas President Capital lowered its target to $340 from $380, also maintaining buy. The FactSet consensus target stands at $292.71. The broader semiconductor sector traded lower, with Credo Technology falling over 16%, Intel down 1.28%, and Broadcom off 0.70%.
