Ambarella is a developer of semiconductor processing solutions and a major supplier to GoPro.

Moore's report focused on Ambarella's outlook and briefly discussed its major client, GoPro. Moore suggested that GoPro's weaker outlook may "have bottomed" and are "likely to become tailwinds" by the second half of 2016. However, the research report argued that Amabarella could see upside to its stock as the company gains market share in incremental "strategic" markets as it lowers its dependence on GoPro's business.

At time of writing, Ambarella was up 8.69 percent at $44.25. GoPro was up 0.70 percent at $11.58.
