Bank of America has reiterated its "Neutral" assessment for Arm Holdings plc (ARM), increasing its price target to $135 from $115. This adjustment reflects a positive outlook driven by significant growth in global hyperscale capital expenditures, which rose to $148 billion in Q4, a 14% quarter-over-quarter and 66% year-over-year increase. The firm projects continued strong capital expenditure, forecasting $748 billion in 2026 and $869 billion in 2027, representing a 56% and 16% surge, respectively. These projections underscore the expanding investment in infrastructure supporting artificial intelligence.

Conversely, RBC Capital lowered its price objective for Arm Holdings plc (ARM) to $130 from $140, yet maintained an "Outperform" rating.

Despite this, management expressed confidence in sustaining a 20% growth rate in fiscal year 2027, highlighting the company's long-term stability and market position.

Arm Holdings plc (ARM) reported robust fiscal Q3 sales of $1.24 billion, marking a 26% year-over-year increase and continuing its streak of billion-dollar quarters.
