11:07 AM EDT, 05/15/2025 (MT Newswires) -- BofA Securities said in a Thursday note it has increased price targets on five companies in the US semiconductor space.
Given the recent trade deals, fears around the tariffs seem to be dissipating, but industrial/auto demand "signals remain murky," BofA analysts said. After recent earnings, estimates for the top eight vendors in the space showed a 0.6% sales drop for 2025, they noted.
The analysts raised their price target on Analog Devices ( ADI ) to $260 from $230, saying it is justified by the company's "best-in-class profitability and differentiated/secular communications exposure," which is offset "by near-term concerns around cost inflation and tariffs."
BofA Securities lifted its price target on Texas Instruments ( TXN ) to $210 from $176, saying they believe the company has "best-in-class" free cash flow generation and returns.
The analysts also increased their price target on Microchip (MCHP) to $65 from $56, NXP Semiconductors ( NXPI ) to $250 from $215, and ON Semiconductor (ON) to $55 from $46.
