Fundamental analysis of Microchip Technology Inc

MCHP · Nasdaq · Technology

Fundamental quality

REASONABLE

55

out of 100

Microchip Technology Inc is a mature, stable business: it earns money solidly (net margin 9.3%) but grows slowly (-1.1% a year). On fundamental quality it scores 55 out of 100, profiling it as a company of reasonable quality. Its weakest area is its growth (revenue -1.1%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.

What the company does

Microchip Technology makes microcontrollers: the cheap, simple chips running everything from a microwave to a car. Thousands of industrial and auto customers, very long product cycles, and considerable debt from past acquisitions.

What will shape its future

  • The industrial/auto inventory cycle: its demand clogs and unclogs in waves.
  • Its debt, which weighs more than at other chipmakers when the cycle turns.
  • The very long life of its products: a chip designed today sells for 20 years.
