Most Popular Narrative: 34% Undervalued
Compared with the last close at $554.46, the most widely followed narrative pegs SiTime’s fair value at $837.50. This frames today’s price as a sizable discount and puts the focus on what would need to go right to close that gap.

Another View: High Multiple Puts SiTime At A Premium
