Synopsys Inc. (SNPS) has seen its stock price target increased to $660 by Piper Sandler, following the successful acquisition of Ansys. The acquisition, valued at $35 billion, aims to enhance Synopsys' market position in the chip-to-system design software industry. The company is expected to provide updates on the financial implications of the merger, demand landscape from China, and the impact of temporary export controls to China on fiscal year 2025.

The acquisition of Ansys positions Synopsys to capture a larger share of a $31 billion total addressable market. The combined capabilities of Synopsys and Ansys are expected to deliver holistic system design solutions across multiple industries, including semiconductors, automotive, and aerospace [1]. Analysts have a consensus rating of "Outperform" with an average target price of $604.70, implying a 3.41% upside from the current price [2].

While the acquisition brings significant growth opportunities, Synopsys faces potential challenges in integrating Ansys' operations and product lines. Additionally, the company is experiencing a decline in revenue from China due to macroeconomic conditions and export restrictions. Regulatory challenges in securing China regulatory clearance for the Ansys acquisition also pose a risk [3].

Synopsys is expected to provide updates on these factors during its earnings call, which will give investors a clearer picture of the company's financial position and future prospects. The company reported strong second-quarter results with a 10% year-over-year revenue increase, maintaining its full-year revenue guidance [3].
