Investing.com - Loop Capital raised its price target on Cadence Designs (NASDAQ:CDNS) to $390.00 from $370.00 on Tuesday, while maintaining a Buy rating on the stock. The company, currently valued at $91.13 billion, is trading near its 52-week high of $335.16, with InvestingPro data showing an overall "GREAT" financial health score.
The price target increase follows Cadence’s June quarter revenue and earnings per share results that exceeded expectations, despite facing a revenue headwind of approximately $20 million to $25 million from a month-long U.S. export ban targeting China.
Loop Capital noted that the export ban affecting China has since been lifted, removing this temporary constraint on Cadence’s business operations.
Management has raised its full-year 2025 revenue guidance by $35 million, which exceeds the $15 million revenue beat reported for the second quarter of 2025.
The new price target assumes Cadence shares will trade at 53.0 times Loop Capital’s increased next-twelve-months estimates, reflecting both higher estimates and peer group multiples.
