Base and Bull scenarios

Base60%

Price target

$382.30

-15.2% from spot

The modal base case reflects steady execution of the core EDA duopoly and successful baseline integration of Ansys. Revenue expands from $7.05B in FY2025 to $9.72B in FY2026 (including $2.98B from Ansys), and reaches $11.03B in FY2027. Normalized operating margin expands steadily from 25.5% in FY2026 to 32.5% by FY2030. Discounted at a 10.12% cost of equity and 9.82% WACC, the synthesized fair value midpoint is $382.30.

Revenue growth of 37.79% in FY2026 (reflecting Ansys inclusion) followed by 13.45% in FY2027, 11.5% in FY2028, 10.0% in FY2029, and 8.5% in FY2030
Normalized EBIT margin expanding from 25.5% in FY2026 to 32.5% in FY2030
Terminal growth rate of 3.5% and terminal P/E multiple of 22.5x
WACC of 9.82% based on 11.15% debt weight and 10.12% cost of equity

Bull20%

Price target

$465.97

+3.4% from spot

In the upside scenario, explosive customer adoption of agentic AI engineering workflows and doubling of die-to-die chiplet IP design wins drive accelerated top-line expansion. Joint solutions with Ansys deliver faster-than-expected cross-selling synergies in 3DIC advanced packaging, while rapid deleveraging lowers the cost of capital. Five-year EPS growth averages 21.0%, supporting the upper boundary of our valuation framework.

Five-year EPS growth CAGR of 21.0%
Ansys annual revenue exceeding management guidance with rapid operating margin expansion
Sustained double-digit organic EDA revenue growth and die-to-die IP win acceleration
WACC compression driven by disciplined and swift debt repayment
