Thesis

Sandisk FY26 Q4 revenue $8.97B (+51% QoQ / +372% YoY), GM 84.6%, datacenter ~$2.98B. FY $20.25B (+175%). Q1 FY27 $10.3–10.8B below some consensus — the debate is supercycle vs conservative guide. Standalone NAND; do not consolidate WDC HDD.

Business

Model: vertically integrated NAND. Flagships: enterprise SSD/datacenter (bit mix ~38%); Edge; consumer. Edge: node and customer mix shift. Strategy: high-value TLC enterprise, ~$93.9B commitments. Entity: 2025 WDC spin.

Value chain

Mid-stack NAND. Upstream: tools/wafers; downstream: cloud and OEMs. Cloud concentration. Risks: tools, cycle inventory, residual WDC links.

Valuation

Price context ~$280 (extremely cyclical; some tapes printed much higher). Do not treat 84% GM as steady state.
