MKS Inc's stock price increased by 3.97% as it reached a 52-week high, reflecting positive market conditions.
KeyBanc analysts raised MKS' price target from $180 to $250, citing optimism about its free cash flow profile and broad applications in advanced packaging and NAND tools, which are expected to drive revenue and EPS growth. This positive outlook aligns with the anticipated growth in semiconductor sales, projected to reach $1 trillion by 2026.
The raised price target indicates strong confidence in MKS' growth potential, particularly as the semiconductor market continues to expand, benefiting from increased demand in GPU and data center sectors.
