Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Autodesk (NASDAQ: ADSK) price target lowered to $42.00.

Canaccord analyst, Richard Davis, said, "Upside results and a modestly improved outlook should ease investors’ near-term concerns that ADSK is about see a cratering of demand for its low-cost engineering and manufacturing design tools. Longer term, we believe that an expanding product portfolio and continued cost discipline position the firm for a multi-year period of low double-digit revenue growth and gradual margin expansion. While macro ebbs and flows are likely to drive trading over the next few months, we are confident that Autodesk has all of the characteristics of a rewarding long-term investment. The recent sell-off provides an attractive entry point, so we would be buyers of ADSK shares today."
