TSMC (TSM) has recently been on Zacks.com's list of the most searched stocks. Therefore, you might want to consider some of the key factors that could influence the stock's performance in the near future.Over the past month, shares of this chip company have returned +14.7%, compared to the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +5.4% change. During this period, the Zacks Semiconductor - Circuit Foundry industry, which TSMC falls in, has gained 12.6%. The key question now is: What could be the stock's future direction?While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company's business prospects usually make its stock 'trending' and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.Earnings Estimate RevisionsHere at Zacks, we prioritize appraising the change in the projection of a company's future earnings over anything else. That's because we believe the present value of its future stream of earnings is what determines the fair value for its stock.Our analysis is essentially based on how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to take the latest business trends into account. When earnings estimates for a company go up, the fair value for its stock goes up as well. And when a stock's fair value is higher than its current market price, investors tend to buy the stock, resulting in its price moving upward. Because of this, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and short-term stock price movements.TSMC is expected to post earnings of $2.49 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +28.4%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate has changed -1.1%.For the current fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $9.68 points to a change of +37.5% from the prior year. Over the last 30 days, this estimate has changed +2.9%.For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $10.97 indicates a change of +13.3% from what TSMC is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has changed +2.1%.Having a strong externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool, the Zacks Rank, offers a more conclusive picture of a stock's price direction in the near term, since it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions. Due to the size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, TSMC is rated Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).The chart below shows the evolution of the company's forward 12-month consensus EPS estimate:12 Month EPSProjected Revenue GrowthWhile earnings growth is arguably the most superior indicator of a company's financial health, nothing happens as such if a business isn't able to grow its revenues. After all, it's nearly impossible for a company to increase its earnings for an extended period without increasing its revenues. So, it's important to know a company's potential revenue growth.For TSMC, the consensus sales estimate for the current quarter of $31.99 billion indicates a year-over-year change of +36.1%. For the current and next fiscal years, $117 billion and $136.84 billion estimates indicate +29.9% and +17% changes, respectively.Last Reported Results and Surprise HistoryTSMC reported revenues of $30.07 billion in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +44.4%. EPS of $2.47 for the same period compares with $1.48 a year ago.Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $30.04 billion, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +0.1%. The EPS surprise was +4.22%.The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. The company topped consensus revenue estimates each time over this period.ValuationWithout considering a stock's valuation, no investment decision can be efficient. In predicting a stock's future price performance, it's crucial to determine whether its current price correctly reflects the intrinsic value of the underlying business and the company's growth prospects.Comparing the current value of a company's valuation multiples, such as its price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S), and price-to-cash flow (P/CF), to its own historical values helps ascertain whether its stock is fairly valued, overvalued, or undervalued, whereas comparing the company relative to its peers on these parameters gives a good sense of how reasonable its stock price is.The Zacks Value Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which pays close attention to both traditional and unconventional valuation metrics to grade stocks from A to F (an A is better than a B; a B is better than a C; and so on), is pretty helpful in identifying whether a stock is overvalued, rightly valued, or temporarily undervalued.TSMC is graded D on this front, indicating that it is trading at a premium to its peers.

However, its Zacks Rank #3 does suggest that it may perform in line with the broader market in the near term.One Big Gain, Every Trading DayTo help you take full advantage of this market, you’re invited to access every stock recommendation in all our private portfolios - for just $1.Zacks private portfolio services that closed 256 double and triple-digit winners in 2024 alone.
