Canaccord Genuity reiterates a 'Hold' on Altera (NASDAQ: ALTR) price target of $35.00.

Analyst, Bobby Burleson, said, "We remain HOLD rated on ALTR despite healthy upside, given our view that demand for FPGAs is likely to remain choppy in H2/12 and distribution trends weak. Our estimates are increased on the upside results and guidance, while our price target is unchanged to reflect a lower net cash position...Revenues and EPS were $464.8 million (+21% Q/Q) and $0.50 compared to consensus estimates of $445.2 million and $0.39 and our estimates of $445.0 million and $0.41. EPS benefitted $0.08 from a one-time federal tax benefit."
