Simply Wall St · 2d ago
  • In recent days, Amkor Technology was selected by Intel to handle EMIB advanced packaging work for the first time and also reported stronger-than-expected third-quarter results, while a 2023 Grantor Retained Annuity Trust linked to Susan Y Kim disclosed gifting 758,000 shares, leaving 725,000 shares held directly.

  • We’ll now look at how winning Intel’s EMIB advanced packaging work shapes Amkor Technology’s investment narrative and future earnings profile.

What Is Amkor Technology's Investment Narrative?

To be comfortable owning Amkor today, you have to believe in the long-term shift toward outsourced advanced packaging and Amkor’s ability to win and execute that work at attractive margins. The new Intel EMIB award directly reinforces that thesis, giving near-term visibility to high-value packaging demand and potentially elevating Amkor’s position with other leading-edge customers. It also comes as the company is guiding to sequential revenue and earnings improvement and has been steadily lifting its dividend, which supports a “maturing but still growing” narrative. At the same time, the sharp share price run and a premium to some fair value estimates mean expectations are already elevated. The Intel win arguably raises the stakes around execution risk and customer concentration, rather than removing it.

However, investors also need to consider how customer concentration could cut both ways. Amkor Technology's shares are on the way up, but could they be overextended? Uncover how much higher they are than fair value.
