Bank of America projects that AI demand will transform Micron Technology's semiconductor business, potentially raising its fiscal 2030 EPS to $236, far above consensus estimates. This bullish outlook is driven by strong growth in high-bandwidth memory (HBM) and enterprise SSDs, which require more wafer capacity and have longer supply lead times. However, the forecast assumes Micron can sustain unusually high gross margins around 80%, which is historically unprecedented given the cyclical nature of memory markets. While the AI-driven memory boom may last longer than past cycles, competition from SK hynix, Samsung, and others could pressure margins, making the $236 EPS a best-case scenario rather than a baseline expectation. Investors may be underestimating the duration of this boom, but caution is warranted given the aggressive assumptions.
