Why Are Investors Interested in AMD Stock?
In this series, we’ve learned that Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has strong growth prospects, but its poor financial health makes it a risky bet because it doesn’t have the capability to withstand a downturn without reporting losses. Hence, AMD has been a favorite of options traders and short-term investors looking to see quick capital gains from the stock’s volatility. Over the last year, AMD stock has underperformed the S&P 500 Index (SPY) and its peers.

Should Investors Worry about AMD’s Long-Term Flexibility?
In the previous article, we saw that Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) does not have sufficient cash and equity to meet its total debt obligations, which brings us to the question of whether it has the capability to service its $1.6 billion worth of debt. AMD’s EBIT was just 1.21x its net interest expense in 2017, showing that the company barely managed to pay the interest on its debt. On the other hand, rivals Intel (INTC) and NVIDIA (NVDA) have net interest coverage ratios of 28.7x and 52.6x, respectively.
Market Realist•2 days agoHow Is AMD Balancing Its Cash and Debt Positions?
In the previous article, we learned that Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is transferring most of its FCF (free cash flow)—that is, its operating cash flow after deducting capital expenditure—to its cash reserve. The company uses this cash reserve to invest in future growth opportunities and repay debt. Its cash flows are mostly negative, because of which it struggles to make ends meet.
Market Realist•2 days agoUnderstanding AMD’s Cash Flow Seasonality
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is preparing for another year of strong product launches with its second-generation Ryzen CPUs (central processing unit) in the pipeline. We’ve learned that AMD is a seasonal company, and as per its new accounting standards, its seasonally strong quarters will be the first and fourth quarters.

AMD Stock’s Fall Has a Silver Lining for Value Investors
This movement made AMD expensive for value investors, who look at a company’s fundamentals, such as revenue and price. Hence, speculators and traders took the stage, and value investors backed off from taking a position in AMD. In 2016 and 2017, AMD aimed to gain market share from Intel (INTC) and NVIDIA (NVDA) by boosting its sales. Considering the company’s focus, a better way to value it is through the PS (price-to-sales) ratio, which shows how much investors are willing to pay for every dollar of a company’s sales.
Market Realist•2 days agoWill AMD’s Operating Margin Improve in 2018?
Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is on track to improve its profit margin by accelerating revenue growth through high-end products and the reduction of expenditure. In the previous article, we saw that the company expects to expand its gross margin to 36%. On the operational front, AMD reduced its non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) operating expenses as a percentage of its revenue from 37% in 1Q17 to 27.8% in 4Q17, bringing it within its long-term target range of 26%–30%. The company expects to maintain its operating expense ratio at 28% in 1Q18 and 2018.
Market Realist•2 days agoWhat Trend Do Technical Indicators Show in AMD’s Stock Price?
When a stock’s short-term moving average is higher than its long-term moving average, it shows technical strength and indicates positive investor sentiments. The 200-day moving average shows a stock’s resistance when its price is below the 200-day moving average and its support when its price is above the 200-day moving average. If a stock falls below its 200-day moving average, it’s believed to be in a downtrend, and vice versa.
Market Realist•3 days agoWill AMD Achieve Its Gross Margin Target in 2018?
On its 2017 investor day, AMD stated that it would expand its non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) gross margin from 31% in 2016 to ~36% in 2018. It improved its gross margin to 34% in 2017 by increasing its ASP (average selling price) and reducing its production costs through the ramp-up of its 14 nm (nanometer) node. AMD’s gross margin expansion of three percentage points in one year was higher than NVIDIA’s (NVDA) an Intel’s (INTC) gross margin expansions of one percentage point and 0.6 percentage points, respectively.

New Security Threat Detected in AMD’s CPUs
In January 2018, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Intel (INTC) chips were found to be vulnerable to hardware design flaws, which put the two companies to work developing software fixes. It hasn’t been long, but a small Israeli security company called CTS Labs has discovered another threat in AMD’s CPUs (central processing unit). On March 12, 2018, in its whitepaper, CTS Labs stated, “The vulnerabilities we have discovered allow bad actors who infiltrated the network to persist in it, surviving computer reboots and re-installation of the operating system, while remaining virtually undetectable by most endpoint security solutions.” It named these flaws RYZENFALL, MASTERKEY, FALLOUT, and CHIMERA, with the last flaw being a potential national security concern.
