Nomura Securities maintains a 'Neutral' on AMD (NYSE: AMD) price target of $8.00.

Analyst, Romit Shah, said, "We believe AMD’s recent traction in Samsung’s premium notebooks is significant in that it’s the first time the company has been designed into the $699+ price band. It is also a data point that contradicts the widely held belief that AMD is poorly positioned with the emergence of Ultrabooks. The stock is interesting considering that it is down 35% over the past three months and trades at 0.7x EV/sales (0.5x trough). That said, we see meaningfully risk to consensus estimates 8% growth in Q3 and 5% growth in Q4."
