Our note on each quarter Lam Research files

10-Q filed October 22: Lam Research

Rating: Sell to Hold Model value +28.5%

Revenue for the twelve months to September 2026 reached $26.1bn, up 33.4% on a year earlier and faster than the 26.0% posted a quarter before. That pace ranks 81 of 934 among the companies we cover. Operating margin widened to 37.0% from 33.0%, though free-cash-flow margin slipped to 25.0% from 28.3% a year earlier. On the back of this, the fundamentals grade moves from B to B+. Our model value rises from $176 to $226 a share, set against a share price of $230, and the rating shifts from Sell to Hold. At that price, the model implies the market is pricing in about 18.2% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, well ahead of the 8.7% a year revenue growth delivered.

Lam Research's trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 33.4% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of 25.0%. Where it stands out: operating margin of 37.0% ranks 1 of 19 semiconductor materials & equipment companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$220 per share in the base case (~$170–$290 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Free cash flow diverging from earnings: TTM free cash flow grew 17.8% while net income grew 45.4%: a 28pp divergence.

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 18.1% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is faster than the 8.7% a year revenue growth Lam Research has delivered.

Our cash-flow model with every input fixed except growth over the next five years, solved for the growth at which the model value equals the share price ($229.79, Nov 3, 2026). Cash-flow growth then fades to 2.5% a year; discount rate 8.5%. Delivered figures are revenue growth from SEC filings.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Lam Research's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($6.9B, FY2027 Q1 TTM), growing 38.5% and 15.7% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 13% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$170–~$290 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Lam Research's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $6.9B, FY2027 Q1 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Lam Research as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 12.6%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.71 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Lam Research’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 3, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Implied vs realised volatility

Options look fairly priced

Implied volatility is within its normal range against realised. Selling options earns the usual premium, nothing extra.

  • Implied is 1.03× the last 60 days’ realised volatility , richer than 21% of the 175 stocks we screen today.
  • Puts and calls are priced at about the same implied volatility.
  • Why: implied is not far enough above realised, or not unusual against our coverage.

Our rule for “rich”: implied at least 1.2× 60-day realised (beyond measurement noise), above 1-year realised (not just a calm spell), and in the top 20% of our coverage that day. Never with results inside the option’s life. These are our conventions, built on research showing option prices usually imply more movement than follows, most when the gap is wide. How we judge this.

Collar

Own the shares, buy the $215 put and sell the $265 call, both expiring December 4, 2026 (31 days).

  • Net cost of $5.70 a share ($570 per contract of 100 shares).
  • Worst case at expiry: -9.1%, if the shares fall below $215 (-6.6% from today).
  • Best case at expiry: +12.6%, if the shares rise above $265 (+15.1%); gains beyond that go to the call buyer.

Offered because the shares trade at or above our fair value of $220: a way to hold on with a floor under the price, paid for by giving up upside the model does not expect. Strikes near 25-delta; the put at its ask and the call at its bid. Protection has a cost over time: research on protective puts finds they have usually lowered returns.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.

Growth Profitability Cash Balance sheet Value

Growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet are percentiles against the companies we cover in the same industry, from SEC filings (100 = best). Value compares the share price with our modelled value range (50 = at our base value; higher = cheaper). A description of reported data and our model — not a quality score or advice.
