UBS maintains a 'Buy' on AMD (NYSE: AMD) price target of $6.25 (from $7.00).

Analyst, Uche Orji, said, "AMD reported 2Q sales/gross margin/opex in line with its prelim results reported 9-July but guided 3Q sales to a -1% q/q mid-point, well below Intel’s (Nasdaq: INTC) +6%, which will result in AMD losing material revenue share in 2012." (UBS lowers FY12 EPS estimate from $0.53 to $0.30 and FY13 from $0.69 to $0.50)

However, Orji maintains a 'Buy' rating and highlights three points: 1) client processors should rebound in 4Q; 2) server processors should recover in 2H; and 3) ASPs/margins should rise with the transition to AMD’s latest products.
