11:28 AM EDT, 04/28/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Cadence Design Systems (CDNS) faces "mounting"valuation pressure as it should be recording faster growth if it is an "AI play,"Oppenheimer said in a Tuesday note.
The analysts said the long-term AI debate around the company's software remains unresolved.
Oppenheimer said that based on the company's Q1 results, "positive"AI inflection remains elusive. The company's 2026 organic growth guidance of 13.6% is "respectable"but well below the chip industry growth of 64%.
Analysts lowered their 2026 earnings estimate for Cadence to $4.43 from $5.06. Analysts polled by FactSet expect $4.60.
According to the note, catalysts for the Cadence stock include chips-to-software sector rotation, AI growth fluctuations, and changes to trade barriers.
Oppenheimer has a perform rating and a $275 price target on the stock.
