Jefferies reiterates a 'Buy' on NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ: NXPI) price target raised from $21 to $27.
Jefferies analyst says, "Q4 revenue and EPS were in line with consensus, but the NXPI guided for 1Q12 revs 4% above consensus and for better gross margins as well. We view our forecast of $4.1b in 2012 revenues and gross margins to expand by 370 bps as being conservative, due to the company's rev recognition model (sell-in) and to our belief that it is ramping higher margin products."
Jefferies cuts FY12 EPS estimate from $1.66 to $1.52 and FY13 from $2.86 to $2.79.
