Could this ASX tech company really rise 180%?

Hi-tech memory company Weebit Nano Ltd (ASX: WBT) posted a huge jump in net profit recently to a record $15.3 million, and the analysts at Pitt Street Research believe the shares are now in line for a rerating.

The profit was up 246% on FY25 and the company believes strong growth will continue due to the benefits of their ReRam technology.

Fast, efficient memory to drive revenue

Weebit Nano said in their recent profit report that AI, digitisation and “increasing intelligent electronics” were driving demand for faster, more efficient embedded memory.

The company said:

ReRAM is becoming the leading technology to succeed embedded flash in next‑generation semiconductor devices, combining the performance, scalability and manufacturability required for future applications. Weebit ReRAM delivers ultra‑low power consumption, fast access times, excellent endurance and long data retention, even at high temperatures and in harsh operating environments. It is highly scalable to advanced process nodes and supports emerging computing architectures, including AI applications. With qualified solutions available across multiple foundry platforms, Weebit ReRAM is well positioned for a broad range of automotive, industrial IoT, consumer and AI‑enabled devices.

Weebit Nano Chief Executive Officer Coby Hanoch said the company expected revenue of at least $7.1 million in the first half of FY27, up from $5.6 million in the previous corresponding period.

He added:

Weebit Nano has a large addressable market. We are currently the leading independent supplier that can support multiple foundries and their customers, while competing ReRAM technologies developed by some foundries, are generally available only to customers manufacturing within these foundries. We enter FY27 in a materially improved financial position, having successfully raised $102 million (including a Share Placement Plan) to cement our ReRAM leadership in the embedded NVM market and accelerate development of a solution for the In‑Memory Compute (IMC) domain.

Broker says this ASX tech stock is looking cheap

Pitt Street Research said in a note to clients this week that Weebit Nano was building strong traction in the analogue semiconductor market, “which we see as its “lowest-hanging” commercial opportunity, with two of its largest customers already in the space”.

The broker said analogue was just one of multiple large markets for the company.

They added:

The real inflection point, however, in Weebit Nano’s business model begins as royalty revenue starts to scale. Royalties carry very high incremental margins, meaning a greater share of each additional dollar of revenue should flow through to profitability. In our scenario analysis, we believe royalties could account for more than 30% of total revenue post-2030, as existing customers move into broader mass production.

Pit Street Research has a price target on Weebit Nano shares of $10.20, compared to $3.46 currently. The company is valued at $899.2 million.
