As previously reported, Wells Fargo analyst Gary Mobley upgraded Cadence Design (CDNS) to Outperform from Market Perform following the stock's recent selloff and underperformance compared to peers Synopsys (SNPS) and Ansys (ANSS). He has raised his "Street-high" FY21 estimates based on his belief that the company should see initial revenue from its recent launch of two new products for the systems analysis market, Clarity and Celsius, the analyst noted. Diversification is key for Cadence given that the company, along with Synopsys, already have nearly 70% market share in the EDA software tools market, Mobley added in his upgrade note. He raised his price target on Cadence shares to $80, up from $70.
