Where FN is headed
Fabrinet (NYSE:FN) in 2028 looks nothing like the sleepy Thai contract manufacturer Wall Street treated as a Ciena proxy for a decade. The company is on track to ship 1.6T optical transceivers at scale, sitting inside the production lines for Nvidia's next two GPU generations and Broadcom's Tomahawk silicon photonics roadmap. Revenue clears $7B run-rate by late FY27 if current order velocity holds, with optical communications now comfortably above 80% of mix and datacom alone larger than the entire company was three years ago.
