SanDisk says customers are extending NBMs and buying more NAND as AI storage demand tops expectations
SanDisk said demand for AI-related storage is running ahead of expectations, with customers extending NBMs and increasing NAND purchases. Management said competitors are spending about 2.7 times more capital per petabyte, underscoring what it described as the company’s capital-efficiency advantage. The stock trades at 7.6x forward earnings; a return to an 11x multiple would imply about $2,350 per share, or 44% upside.
