Investing.com - Stifel raised its price target on Teradyne (NASDAQ:TER) to $119.00 from $100.00 on Monday, while maintaining a Hold rating on the semiconductor test equipment manufacturer. The $21 billion market cap company, currently trading at a P/E ratio of 46.3, appears overvalued according to InvestingPro’s Fair Value analysis.

The price target increase reflects Teradyne’s growing position in the compute semiconductor test market, which Stifel notes is now the largest and fastest growing segment in semiconductor testing, already more than twice the size of the mobile SoC market. The company maintains strong fundamentals with a 59.1% gross profit margin and good financial health scores according to InvestingPro analysis.

Teradyne has been strategically investing to improve its positioning in the compute market, with the company reporting it wins approximately 50% of the non-GPU, AI ASIC designs based on internal estimates.

Stifel highlighted that while Nvidia has not historically been a Teradyne customer, the company appears focused on demonstrating its test platform capabilities with an eye toward potentially qualifying as a test supplier for the GPU giant, which currently sole-sources with Advantest.

The research firm suggested that while a decision point in 2025 might be aggressive for Teradyne to win Nvidia business, this potential opportunity remains something to monitor in the semiconductor test equipment space. Investors should note that Teradyne will report its next earnings on October 28, 2025.
