Goldman Sachs analysts, who recommend buying Broadcom shares, lifted their 12-month target to $240 from $190, citing additional large customers for custom silicon.
Broadcom shares are now up almost 120% for the year, reaching a high for $245.29 on Monday.
Broadcom refers to its custom AI accelerators as XPUs, which are different than the GPUs Nvidia sells.
Broadcom said it doubled shipments of XPUs in the quarter to "our three hyperscale customers."
The company does not name the customers, but analysts say the three are Meta, Alphabet and TikTok parent ByteDance.
