  • Amphenol (APH) Shares Surge 97% in a Year But Show Signs of Overvaluation
    January 24, 2026, 3:17 AM EST. Amphenol (APH) shares have surged 97% over the past year, closing at $150.99, drawing fresh investor attention due to its key role in communications and industrial markets. However, valuation analysis raises concerns of an overheated stock. A Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model estimates intrinsic value at $93.29 per share, suggesting the stock is about 62% overvalued relative to current prices. Meanwhile, Amphenol trades at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 48.37, far above the electronics industry average of 26.93, implying expectations for strong growth or low risk that may be optimistic. Short-term price fluctuations, including a recent 2.2% weekly drop, reflect mixed market sentiment amid these high valuations.
