Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on ON Semi (NASDAQ: ONNN) price target of $9.00 (from $10.00).

Analyst, Mark Lipacis, said, "ONNN posted in-line Q2 EPS, but guided Q3 revs 800bps below consensus, and announced its CFO was resigning. We are buyers of the expected weakness because 1) EV/S of 1.09 is within 10% of 2008 trough, 2) product cycles in notebooks, LED lighting, power modules for industrial applications provide visibility, 3) Cost reductions and share buybacks should drive EPS growth. Our price target assumes 10x 2013 EPS."

FY12 EPS estimate lowered from $0.67 to $0.57 and FY13 from $0.98 to $0.87.
