Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Analog Devices stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Analog Devices is a leading supplier of analog and DSP integrated circuits. Its fiscal fourth quarter earnings were above the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Over the last one year, the stock has outperformed the Zacks characterised Semi-Analog and Mixed Industry. Management sounded upbeat on the company’s progress toward closure of the Linear Technology acquisition. It is expected to make Analog Devices an industry leader across a huge range of products, customer breadth and scale. Though we remain concerned about weakness in the consumer market, ADI is solidly positioned in growth markets like industrial, auto and communication. Also its products continue to see very strong deployment in the emerging automotive market." (5/15/2017)
• 2. Jefferies Group LLC analysts commented, "We adjust our model to account for the impact of the LLTC acquisition, while including ADI's updated guidance for the AprQ. ADI expects LLTC to contribute $165m in revenues in the AprQ and targets $150m in run rate synergies over the 18 months post close. We continue to like ADI's FCF/Share growth prospects as it realizes the bulk of its synergies in 2017. Reiterate Buy, PT to $100." (3/20/2017)
• 3. UBS AG analysts commented, "Analog Devices announced that it has received clearance from China's MOFCOM for its deal to acquire Linear Technology, and is the final regulatory approval needed. ADI expects the Linear deal to close on Friday 10-Mar. We view this as a positive surprise as our prior understanding was that staff changes at MOFCOM in the past year could have resulted in a longer time horizon to close the transaction. In addition, ADI also revised its outlook for F2Q and now expects revenue and EPS to be at the midpoint to upper end of the prior range. This now implies revenue of $910M to $950M and EPS of $0.80 to $0.86, and compares to consensus of $915M and $0.81. We believe this near term strength is partly due to core industrial demand trends given recent PMI strength." (3/7/2017)
• 4. Royal Bank Of Canada analysts commented, "ADI reported Jan-qtr results significantly ahead of Street (revenues 13% and EPS 29% ahead of Street), and guided Apr-qtr ahead of current expectations (we could see further upside depending on the trajectory of Consumer revenues). ADI saw upside from a confluence of strong B2B performance coupled with material upside on the Consumer segment (AAPL driven, -8% vs. -30% q/q guide). We continue to think given current conditions, the LLTC deal could be substantially more accretive vs. prior expectations given cost containment efforts and revenue growth at both ADI & LLTC over the next several quarters. Fundamentally, we see the ADI/LLTC transaction as complementary, and see the combined company sustaining higher margins/FCF with potential for revenue acceleration given ability to cross-sell solutions across their customer stack. We increase our PT to $90 from $85 and see ADI generating closer to $5.00 EPS in EPS post-LLTC integration." (2/15/2017)
