Analyst RankingTop 8% #324 out of 4416 analysts Average Return+20.9% Win Rate53%25 out of 47 Risk vs RewardPoor Good Analyst ColorStifel Nicolaus's Ruben Roy raised their price target on Synopsys (NASDAQ: SNPS) by 12.7% from $550 to $620 on 2023/11/30. The analyst maintained their Strong Buy rating on the stock. Synopsys is the dominator of the EDA (Electronic Design Automation) industry and is diversifying its revenue stream into a broader set of software tools, the analyst told investors in a note assessing the company's Q4 and FY 2023 report, released on 2023/11/29. Importantly, given accelerating design automation opportunities ahead, management, after a strategic portfolio review, has decided to explore strategic alternatives for its SIG business segment (~8% of revenue), Roy reported, citing management commentary during the conference call. "An outcome in which the SIG business is divested or spun out is a meaningful positive, longer-term outcome for the company," the analyst said. Synopsys is taking a more pragmatic approach to its China business, given the strong growth in recent fiscal years and the ongoing macroeconomic downturn in the region, Roy continued, adding that "the company has not seen any changes to existing export restrictions on its technology."
