Lenovo Group Limited stock (ISIN HK0992009065) was last at HKD 35.40 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on October 6, 2026, down 1.45 percent from the previous close. The immediate business issue is rising memory costs, while Lenovo continues to expand its artificial intelligence portfolio.

Memory costs pressure PC demand

As BusinessWorld reported on October 7, 2026, Lenovo Philippines president Michael Ngan said the company is still growing despite higher memory prices. He said DRAM prices could rise by up to 15 percent and NAND Flash prices by up to 20 percent in the fourth quarter, forcing PC makers to raise prices while unit sales targets come under pressure.

That cost pressure matters because Lenovo's devices business remains its largest operating base. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026/27, Intelligent Devices Group revenue increased 27 percent to USD 17.1 billion and its operating margin reached 7.1 percent, according to Lenovo.

AI growth changes the mix

Lenovo's first quarter delivered group revenue of USD 26.9 billion, up 43 percent year over year, while adjusted net income rose 176 percent to USD 1.1 billion, the company said in its fiscal 2026/27 results. AI-related revenue increased 60 percent to USD 9.3 billion and represented 35 percent of group revenue.

The infrastructure business supplied a sharper profitability signal. Infrastructure Solutions Group revenue rose 98 percent to USD 8.5 billion, with operating profit of USD 777 million and an operating margin of 9.1 percent, according to Lenovo. The contrast is important: AI servers are accelerating sales, while component inflation can still test margins in the traditional PC business.

Analyst targets and next results

Stock-World reported on September 9, 2026, that JPMorgan raised Lenovo's rating from Neutral to Overweight and lifted its Hong Kong price target from HKD 20 to HKD 30. The target change places the analyst view below the October 6 market price, making execution and margin delivery more important than the headline AI pipeline.

Paasa listed a Buy consensus from one covering rating on October 6, 2026. It also showed Lenovo's share price 6.55 percent below the 52-week high of HKD 37.88, leaving the market focused on whether growth can offset memory costs.

Stock-World reported on September 9, 2026, that Lenovo's next quarterly results were due on October 29, 2026. That report will test whether the 43 percent revenue increase and the 9.1 percent infrastructure margin are carrying into the next period.
