Citi has initiated coverage on Innolight’s H shares, listed as 03308.HK, with a Buy rating and a target price of HK$1,524. The bank said the target is based on 16.2x projected 2027 price-to-earnings. In its note, Citi forecast compound annual growth rates of 129% for revenue and 149% for net profit from 2025 to 2028. The bank tied that outlook to strong demand for AI optical communications, bandwidth upgrades, rapidly expanding production capacity, a better product mix, rising adoption of silicon photonics, and operating leverage. Citi also said Innolight’s broad product portfolio, scalable manufacturing capacity, advances in technology and research and development, a flexible and resilient supply chain, and established ties with leading global cloud service providers and AI customers should support its position in the AI era. The report was cited by Odaily, referencing Jin10.
