SK hynix cut its analyst target as Cantor Fitzgerald reduced its price objective to USD 250.00 from USD 300.00 on October 26, 2026, while retaining an Overweight rating, according to Yahoo Finance. SK hynix stock traded at EUR 925.00 at Lang & Schwarz on October 27, 2026 at 4:07 p.m. CET.

Cantor target stays above consensus

The revised Cantor target remains near the broader analyst view. MarketBeat cited a consensus Buy rating and a USD 253.22 average target on October 26, 2026, with individual targets ranging from USD 200.00 to USD 320.00. The USD 250.00 Cantor objective is USD 3.22 below that consensus figure.

Margins and earnings remain central

The target reduction came as analysts reassessed the earnings outlook rather than abandoning the memory-chip thesis. Yahoo Finance reported that analysts had cut their 2027 earnings estimate by 13.00 percent since July, while the 2026 estimate rose from USD 24.65 to USD 27.11 per share.

The same report said SK hynix posted a 76.00 percent operating margin in the second quarter of 2026. It also described long-term agreements with about 10 customers, but that customer count is not used here because the source does not provide an exact figure.

What date comes next?

Yahoo Finance reported that SK hynix plans to publish third-quarter results on October 28, 2026, with shareholder returns expected alongside the release. The date gives investors a near-term point for testing whether the revised 2027 earnings assumptions can stabilize.

Valuation carries a higher hurdle

Yahoo Finance said SK hynix traded at about 4.20 times next-twelve-month earnings, while the USD 250.00 Cantor target implied about 7.40 times those earnings. That comparison leaves the analyst case dependent on earnings holding up beyond the current reporting cycle.
