Investment thesis

Credo Technology is a high-quality, hypergrowth semiconductor franchise with a wide economic moat, a four-quarter earnings beat streak, and peer-leading margins — but the stock is within 2% of its near-term price objective and extreme customer concentration at the top customer level of 67% of revenue constrains conviction at current prices.

About Credo Technology Group Holding

About Credo Technology Group Holding

Credo Technology Group generated $436.8 million in total revenue in fiscal 2025, more than double the $193.0 million reported in fiscal 2024, with product sales and engineering services comprising 97% of revenue and IP licensing the remaining 3%. A single customer accounted for 67% of fiscal 2025 revenue, and the top 10 customers combined for approximately 90%. The company employed 507 engineers as of May 3, 2025 and spent $146.0 million on research and development during the year.

Credo operates a fabless model, exclusively using TSMC for semiconductor wafer production in fiscal 2025 and relying on Amkor Technology and Advanced Semiconductor Engineering for IC packaging, King Yuan Electronics and Sigurd Microelectronics for testing, and BizLink Technology for manufacturing its Active Electrical Cable products. The company sells through a direct global sales force to hyperscalers, OEMs, ODMs, and optical module manufacturers across Ethernet and PCIe connectivity markets spanning 100G to emerging 1.6T data rates. Its revenue mix shifted sharply toward hardware in fiscal 2025, with IP license revenue falling to 3% of total revenue from 15% a year earlier as product and engineering-services sales scaled to 97%. Credo's principal named competitors are Broadcom, Marvell Technology, and Astera Labs, though the company describes itself as the only vendor offering a complete suite of high-performance connectivity solutions across its product categories.

Show full overview

Credo's fabless model concentrates manufacturing risk at a single foundry rather than spreading it across a supplier base: the 10-K states the company exclusively used TSMC for semiconductor wafer production in fiscal 2025, with no named backup foundry disclosed. Combined with revenue concentration where one customer represented 67% of fiscal 2025 sales, Credo's earnings sit at the intersection of two single points of failure, a wafer-supply disruption at TSMC and a pull-back by its largest hyperscale customer, either of which could move reported revenue independent of underlying demand for its SerDes and DSP technology.
