01:40 PM EDT, 05/29/2026 (MT Newswires) -- CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:
We sharply lift our price target to $465 from $263, 23x our FY 28 (Jan.) EPS view, well above DELL's three-year average (~11x) on massive AI tailwinds. We raise our FY 27 EPS view by $5.21 to $18.16 and lift FY 28's by $5.15 to $20.20. DELL delivered a blowout Q1, with sales up 88% to $43.8B, fueled by insatiable AI server demand, where sales grew by an eye-popping 757% to $16.1B and bookings came in higher at $24.4B (AI backlog up 19% Q/Q to $51.3B). Pull-ins are playing a factor, but we think core demand remains impressive and durable, supported by DELL's AI pipeline incredibly remaining "multiples above" its backlog total. Growing demand for inference/agentic products has also encouraged more edge computing/CPU/storage workloads, broadening DELL's exposure to AI upside. This was clearly demonstrated in Q1, with Traditional Servers (19% of sales) growing by 92% Y/Y and seeing "significant unit growth," while Storage (10%) grew by 8% with improving margins. CSG grew 17%, supported by PC refreshes/AI PCs.
