Oppenheimer analyst Rick Schafer notes Broadcom (AVGO) reports Q3 results Thursday and sees upside to consensus revenue/EPS estimates. Furthermore, the analyst sees near-term momentum driven by the company's wired segment as Jericho/Tomahawk routing/switching products ramp, supporting cloud/DC demand and a continued shift to merchant silicon. Schafer expects the Brocade (BRCD) acquisition to be about $1-plus accretive, yet small enough for continued capital return growth and/or additional M&A. He reiterates an Outperform rating and $275 price target on Broadcom's shares.
