Goldman Sachs downgraded InvenSense (NYSE: INVN) from Buy to Neutral with a price target of $25.00. The change is tied to valuation.

Analyst Mark Delaney said, "We remove InvenSense from the Americas Buy List and now have a Neutral rating as the stock has reached our 12-month price target of $25 (which is unchanged), and we believe that one of the key near-term catalysts for the stock (share gain at Apple) has now materialized. While on the Americas Buy List since 12/26/11, InvenSense is up 143% vs. the S&P 500 up 55%. We attribute this outperformance to a combination of smartphone unit growth, increasing attach rates of gyroscopes (we believe attach rates could reach 50-60% in 2015E), and share gain by InvenSense (recall that STMicro and Bosch are its primary competitors)."
