Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Spreadtrum Communications (NASDAQ: SPRD) price target of $12.00.

Analyst, T. Michael Walkley, said, "We hosted upbeat investor meetings yesterday with Spreadtrum management in Boston. While TD-SCDMA handset sales and subscriber net additions started slowly in 2012, we anticipate much stronger H2/12 sales. We believe Spreadtrum is well positioned to benefit with key tier-1 TD-SCDMA modem design wins and growing design momentum for its integrated TD smartphone solution. Further, we believe a larger mix of smartphone chipsets in H2/12 should drive higher blended chipset ASPs, stabilized gross margin, and solid earnings growth."
