Stifel has revised its price target for NXP Semiconductors (NXPI, Financial), reducing it to $170 from the previous $210, while maintaining a Hold rating on the stock. The adjustment is primarily due to anticipated tariff impacts, which are expected to influence both direct and indirect sectors. This perspective is shaping the firm's outlook as the Q1 earnings season approaches, particularly for companies in the Analog, Connectivity, and Processors segments.

Stifel anticipates that the March quarter results will generally meet expectations; however, there is concern about a weaker outlook in the upcoming June quarter. The firm is cautious about the broader semiconductor industry, noting an increased risk of entering a cyclical downturn, which could be exacerbated by the tariffs' uncertain scope and duration.
