Drexel Hamilton reiterated a Buy rating and $52.00 price target on Silicon Labs (NASDAQ: SLAB) following the company's 2Q earnings report. June sales of $174.9 million, beat the Street consensus of about $170.5 million. EPS of $0.75 was strongly ahead of the Street consensus of $0.64.

Analyst Cody Acree commented, "Most of the EPS upside looks to have come from the strong gross margin, which increased to 62.3% from 59.6% sequentially, easily beating our 61% estimate, which had also been the company’s guidance. The margin upside looks to have been driven by the sequential strength in the infrastructure division, although IoT also likely contributed."
