The company reports a return on equity of 18.0% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 42.2% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of 25.0% (sector avg: 1.0%). Companies in this tier generally demonstrate consistent profitability and efficient capital deployment, though they may face some competitive pressure.

Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 45.56x, an EV/EBITDA of 40.05x, a P/B ratio of 8.19x.

Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 100.3% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of 12.3% (sector: 0.9%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.

Revenue growth stands at 100.3% year-over-year, while a beta of 2.17 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves.

While the balance sheet is not a major concern, the stock is subject to typical market volatility and may experience sharper drawdowns during risk-off episodes.
MU carries a short interest score of 60/100, indicating moderate short selling activity. This is a neutral reading — not enough to signal systemic bearishness, but worth monitoring. Specific risk factors include high market sensitivity (beta: 2.17), elevated leverage (D/E: 15.00x). At $258.5B market cap (mega-cap), MICRON TECHNOLOGY INC offers reasonable institutional liquidity.
MU offers a modest dividend yield of 0.2%. While the income contribution is relatively small, even a small dividend signals management's commitment to shareholder returns and can serve as a signal of financial discipline.
