VICR

Needham analyst N. Quinn Bolton has downgraded Vicor Corporation (VICR) from Buy to Hold. Despite beating Q3 FY23 revenue and EPS estimates, Vicor's bookings and backlog remain underwhelming. The analyst also noted that Vicor's visibility is clouded by industry complexities and that its shares will likely be range-bound for the next 12 months. Google's move to a two-stage architecture could lead to Vicor losing its factorized power content, which has led to recent lawsuits.
