Margins Slip From 9% To 7.4%

  • On a trailing twelve month basis, Entegris earned US$235.6 million of net income on US$3.2b of revenue, which works out to a 7.4% net margin compared with 9% last year according to the risk summary.
  • Consensus narrative expects profit margins to move higher over time. However, the recent step down from 9% to 7.4% means investors are watching how quickly new facilities and cost initiatives translate into the higher margin profile analysts have in mind.

EPS Trend Versus Bullish Growth Story

  • Trailing twelve month basic EPS has moved from US$2.05 at FY 2025 Q1 to US$1.55 at FY 2025 Q4, even though analysts are forecasting around 20.1% yearly earnings growth from here.
  • Bulls see Entegris as a long term earnings compounder. Yet the recent TTM EPS drift from US$2.05 to US$1.55 invites a closer look at how quickly AI and advanced node demand might need to feed through to support the higher earnings paths bullish investors are focusing on.

Rich Valuation With 85.9x P/E

  • The shares trade at a P/E of 85.9x versus 44.2x for the broader US Semiconductor industry and 45.1x for peers, while the current price of US$133.44 also sits well above the DCF fair value estimate of US$67.83.
  • Bears point to this valuation gap and the weaker interest coverage as key concerns, and the combination of an 85.9x P/E and margins that softened to 7.4% gives those cautious views plenty of concrete numbers to anchor on.
Skeptical investors often start with that 85.9x P/E and weak interest coverage, so if you want the full cautious angle on these results, it is worth reading the dedicated bear case next. 🐻 Entegris Bear Case
