The Fundamentalytics view

Next results ~January 28, 2027 (estimated)

Silicom LTD.'s trailing-twelve-month revenue grew 6.6% year on year, with a free-cash-flow margin of -5.4%. Where it stands out: change in growth rate of +59.7pp ranks 2 of 40 communications equipment companies we cover. Where it lags: operating margin of -19.8% ranks 35 of 40 communications equipment companies we cover.

Our discounted-cash-flow model values the business at ~$29 per share in the base case (~$24–$37 across growth scenarios) — model values under stated assumptions, not a price target.

Current signal Results well ahead of expectations: Reported earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate by 200% in the quarter to 2026-09-30, the 4th beat in the last four quarters.

Assembled from SEC-filed figures — the full workings are on this page and in our methodology. Observations, not recommendations.

Strengths

  • Growth speeding up. The growth rate is 59.7 points higher than a quarter earlier.
  • Margins widening. Operating margin is up 3.0 points on a year ago.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 5.2% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Net cash. Cash exceeds long-term debt by $0.0bn.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Loss-making. Operating margin is -19.8%: costs exceed revenue.
  • Burning cash. Free cash flow was -5.4% of revenue over the last 12 months.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 94% and a beta of 3.0 against the S&P 500.
  • Below peers: gross margin. Gross margin of 30.6% ranks 30 of 36 communications equipment companies we cover (median 44.1%).

What the price is pricing in

The share price implies about 6.0% a year of cash-flow growth for five years.That is faster than the -10.4% a year revenue growth Silicom has delivered.

Read with care: free cash flow has swung sharply in the past year (often a one-off tax, legal or working-capital item), so the cash-flow base behind this reading may be unusually low or high.

  • Priced in6.0%
  • Last 12 months6.6%
  • 3 years a year-25.6%
  • 5 years a year-10.4%

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 ($32.01, 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 Silicom LTD.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($6.7M, FY2025 Q4 TTM), growing 4% a year for five years and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$24–~$36 ; that spread sets a 15% 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 Silicom LTD.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $6.7M, FY2025 Q4 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 Silicom LTD. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 10%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 1.13 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Moat

25 /100

Weak moat

How hard Silicom's competitive advantage looks for rivals to wear away, judged from 5 years of its own filings: returns on capital, pricing power, profit durability, cash conversion and discipline.

  • Pricing power 12 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 36.5%, moving by 3.5 percentage points (standard deviation) across 5 years.

  • Durability 2 / 20

    Operating margin has been a median 10.8%; its worst year was -19.8%.

  • Cash conversion 4 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 2 of 5 years, at a median -0.2% of revenue.

AI disruption exposure: Medium. In this industry, AI could change how the product is made or sold, without replacing the core asset. The score above includes a 5-point deduction for that exposure (30 before it).

Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Growth is left blank when last year's figure was a loss or under 2% of revenue. Share counts and EPS are restated for stock splits. A dash means the company didn't report the figure.
