MaxLinear, Inc. (MXL) — Available-Data Snapshot

We don't publish a discounted-cash-flow fair value for MaxLinear, Inc. (MXL) because the free data sources we rely on don't expose the multi-year financials a DCF needs — common for small or thinly-covered listings. Rather than invent numbers, this page shows an honest snapshot of what the public data does support: the current price and size, any relative valuation multiples that exist, a book-value view, and a price-based read. Treat it as a descriptive starting point, not a valuation and not investment advice.

On the numbers we do have, MXL trades at a recent price of $55.91, a market capitalisation of about $5,070,656,512, sitting 37% of the way up its 52-week range ($12.77–$128.30), on the NasdaqGS.

The standard alternative to a DCF is relative valuation — comparing MXL's trading multiples against a sector benchmark. Here that gives Fwd P/E of 13.0× (cheaper than the peer median of 16.4×); P/B of 9.5× (cheaper than the peer median of 15.3×); P/S of 7.7× (cheaper than the peer median of 11.7×); EV/EBITDA of 136.9× (richer than the peer median of 21.3×). A cheaper multiple than peers can flag a discount or a market that expects weaker growth; it is a comparison, not a recommendation.

The asset, or book-value, lens is the classic tool for asset-heavy businesses and financials. MXL shows a price-to-book (P/B) of 9.55 and book value of $5.86 per share. Price-to-book compares the market price to the accounting net-asset value per share; below 1.0 can mean a discount to net assets or that the market is pricing in trouble — descriptive either way, never a buy signal on its own.

Finally, a price-based read — explicitly not a valuation. MXL is in a mixed trend, trading -56.4% from its 52-week high. Over the past year the stock is +224.8%. Moving-average trend and 52-week position describe where the stock has traded; they say nothing about what it is worth.
