Sandisk stock (ISIN US80004C2008) closed at USD 1,791.82 on September 18, 2026, up 10.99 percent from the prior session. That move came as passive buying expectations around the company's planned entry into the S&P 100 index built momentum, and TIKR said on September 20, 2026 that 25 analysts now cover the stock with a mean target of USD 2,125.

Analysts still lean higher

According to TIKR, the analyst split is 16 buys, 4 outperforms, 3 holds, 1 underperform and 1 sell, which leaves the average target 19 percent above the September 18 close. That gap is a simple measure of how much optimism still sits above the current quote.

TIKR also puts its mid-case model at USD 3,710, implying 107 percent total return from the same USD 1,791.82 close. For investors, the size of that spread matters more than the headline jump alone.

Fiscal 2026 sets the base

On September 20, 2026, cnyes reported that Sandisk's fiscal 2026 revenue reached USD 20.25 billion, up 175 percent year over year, while net profit rose to USD 11.4 billion from a USD 1.6 billion loss a year earlier. The same report said fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue was USD 8.97 billion, up 372 percent, and that management guided fiscal first-quarter 2027 revenue to USD 10.3 billion to USD 10.8 billion.

That guidance range points to a slower pace than the 372 percent fourth-quarter growth, but it still leaves the next quarter at more than USD 10 billion in sales. The cash generation backdrop also improved, with operating cash flow at USD 11.7 billion for fiscal 2026, according to the same September 20 report.

Price now sets the tone

The latest quoted level in the available market snapshot was USD 1,770.06 on September 20, 2026, down 1.21 percent, according to Investing.com perpetual news data. With the stock already close to USD 1,800, the near-term question is whether the post-index move can hold above the previous close or fade back toward the mid-September breakout area.
