Nomura Securities maintains a 'Neutral' on Analog Devices (NASDAQ: ADI) price target of $35.00.
Analyst, Romit Shah, said, "FQ3 (Jul) revenue of $683mn was at the low end of guidance and missed our estimate of $692mn. The miss was driven by both industrial and automotive, which more than offset the strength in communications. Gross margin of 65.6% was roughly in line with our expectations. Operating expenses of $230mn were slightly below plan. Lack of end market momentum drives modest Q4 growth. Our EPS estimate decreases form $2.25 to $2.20 for CY12, and from $2.55 to $2.45 for CY13. Our price target is unchanged at $35, which is based on 14x our CY13 EPS estimate."
