SCREEN Holdings (TSE:7735) has quietly kept its rally going, with the stock up about 8% over the past week and nearly 30% in the past 3 months, outpacing many semiconductor peers.

Zooming out, that recent strength builds on a powerful run, with the share price delivering strong double digit returns over the year and multi bagger total shareholder returns over the past five years. This suggests investors are steadily pricing in more growth.
If SCREEN’s momentum has caught your eye, it is a good time to see what else is moving in semis and adjacent tech via high growth tech and AI stocks.
With earnings still growing and the share price trading only slightly below analyst estimates and our intrinsic value, the key question now is whether SCREEN remains mispriced or if the market has already factored in the next phase of growth.
With SCREEN Holdings closing at ¥14,025 against a narrative fair value of ¥15,040, the current share price implies modest upside if its forecasts play out.
Strategic expansion into advanced packaging (PLP, Lemotia coater, LeVina imaging system), with expected sales growth in this area starting in the current fiscal year and accelerating into next year, introduces a higher value, higher margin revenue stream and reduces reliance on traditional wafer cleaning, supporting margin expansion and greater earnings resilience.
Curious how much growth, margin uplift, and future earnings power this shift assumes? Wondering what profit multiple it needs to sustain? See how the numbers stack up.
Result: Fair Value of ¥15,040 (UNDERVALUED)
