POET Technologies Inc. (POET) Latest News
22 Sep
POET Technologies trades at $8.56 with a $18.11 price target from 24/7 Wall St., implying ~112% upside, backed by roughly $796 million in cash after a $400 million offering and minimal liabilities. The company is pre-revenue; latest quarter revenue of $569,925 (+112% YoY, below $691,530 consensus) and GAAP loss of $0.07 per share. Bull case centers on Lumilens with an initial $50 million order and up to $500 million over five years for optical engines, plus a Malaysia ramp with Globetronics targeting 1 million engines annually and 800G production planned for 2027. Partnerships with LITEON, Lessengers, NTT, and Quantum Computing position POET in a growing Ethernet optics market (~60% YoY). Risks include ~78.7 million warrants causing dilution, ongoing pre-revenue status, and an 800G timeline delay from 2026 to 2027. Bear and bull targets span roughly $12.26 to $20.50 in 12 months. Upside depends on successful Malaysia ramp and Lumilens monetization, but dilution and 800G delays introduce substantial execution risk.
