Outperform

Reason

Mizuho raised the firm's price target on Lumentum to $455 from $325 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. The firm adjusted targets in the semiconductors and semiconductor capital equipment group as part of its 2026 outlook. Mizuho sees continued upside for the group in 2026 due to "attractive valuations," but more modest than 2025. The analyst' top sectors in 2026 are AI accelerators and wafter fab equipment, Optical, and memory, while the firm remains cautious on electric vehicles, autos and analog as well as computers and handsets. Mizuho's top picks for 2026 are Nvidia, Lumentum and Broadcom.

Reason

Needham raised the firm's price target on Lumentum to $470 from $290 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The analyst also repeats Lumentum as a top pick for 2026. Needham has increased conviction that optical spending for artificial intelligence infrastructure continues to increase. Lumentum is "uniquely positioned" to benefit throughout AI data center applications, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says limited competition in InP laser fabrication adds to its conviction in the shares.

Equal Weight

Reason

Morgan Stanley raised the firm's price target on Lumentum to $304 from $190 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. The AI trade broadened out from semi names in 2025, helping infrastructure names, particularly within optical, notes the analyst, who believes that trade can continue, particularly in optical, through the first half of 2026. However, investors will "need to get more selective for full year returns given multiples," the analyst added in a year-ahead note on the group.

Overweight

Reason

JPMorgan analyst Samik Chatterjee raised the firm's price target on Lumentum to $350 from $235 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm upped estimates for the optical companies citing "scale-across and multi-rail opportunities." The firm says the incremental total addressable market associated with scale-across, as well as telecom product innovation to support multi-rail infrastructure in long-haul and metro networks, creates a stronger outlook for the sustainability of "already robust growth rates over a longer period" for the optical names. As it results, JPMorgan is giving the stocks a higher earnings multiple.
