Jefferies maintains a 'Hold' on MEMC Electronic Materials (NYSE: WFR) price target of $4.00.
Analyst, Jesse Pichel, said, "MEMCs sale of the Bulgarian and Italian projects drove the stock up ~20%. We view this as a positive as the company executed as they had guided and the sales will help the company’s liquidity situation. We estimate the company will generate roughly $60-70M in cash from the sales...However, it appears increasingly likely that the company will need to slow SunEdison construction below guidance in early 3Q12 to remain within increasing liquidity requirements."
