UBS analyst Timothy Arcuri raised the firm's price target on Broadcom to $475 from $472 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Despite the sharp pullback on Friday highlighting how consensus-long the stock has become, recent management discussions suggest the market reaction was an overreaction, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Commentary on AI semiconductor revenue supports higher expectations for FY26, prompting upward estimate revisions, UBS says.

Piper Sandler analyst Harsh Kumar raised the firm's price target on Broadcom to $430 from $375 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares.

Piper remains a buyer of Broadcom, especially on any weakness, and believes that gross margin dollars is the right approach for the XPU business.
