Semtech Corp (SMTC) has been upgraded from Hold to Buy by Needham analyst Quinn Bolton, with a $35 price target. The analyst sees potential for significant long-term upside, despite potential near-term volatility due to weak end-market demand and inventory digestion in the IoT and telecom markets. The incoming CEO, Paul Pickle, is expected to introduce a new long-term operating model and highlight potential divestiture opportunities. Roth MKM analyst Scott Searle also reiterated Semtech with a Buy and a $56 price target.
