Amid a broader market reassessment of electronic component suppliers tied to the tech boom, Evercore ISI has downgraded TE Connectivity (TEL) from 'Outperform' to 'In Line'. According to reports, the firm lowered its price target for the stock to $230 from $260, suggesting that current valuations already incorporate long-term growth prospects. Analysts noted that the 12-month risk/reward profile has become less favorable, particularly as AI-related revenue currently accounts for only a small fraction of the company's total income.
This move comes as data center suppliers face increasing pressure to demonstrate immediate returns from AI investments, with TEL competing against peers like Amphenol (APH) which has seen robust growth in industrial solutions. Per market data, this downgrade reflects growing caution toward companies that have yet to translate AI momentum into significant bottom-line growth compared to their competitors in the connectivity and sensor solutions sector.
