Marvell Technology, Inc. ( MRVL ) is having heavy, unusual call options volume (out-of-the-money calls) after reporting strong earnings results yesterday for its fiscal Q1 ending May 3 .

System-on-a-chip semiconductor designer and MRVL stock is at $ 75.08 , up over 7% in morning trading.

Strong revenue and free cash flow ( FCF ) led to very high FCF margin, despite higher capex spending.

MRVL has a 1.50% FCF yield (i.e., the reciprocal of 67.6x the market cap).

The bottom line is that either from a FCF analysis basis or using analysts' price targets, MRVL stock looks deeply undervalued. So, no wonder investors are trading out-of-the-money MRVL call options in heavy volume. On the date of publication, Mark R.
