Sandisk laid out a fiscal 2028-to-2030 financial framework built around mid-to-high-teens annual revenue growth, approximately 80% non-GAAP gross margins and approximately 75% non-GAAP operating margins. The company also expects adjusted free cash flow to equal about 50% of revenue after taxes, capital expenses and working capital.

The targets are management’s assumptions, not Wall Street forecasts. Sandisk did not publish a multi-year dollar capex figure in its investor-day release or a written transcript on the event page; it said excess cash would be returned to shareholders after investment in the business.
