Jefferies maintains a 'Buy' on Marvell (NASDAQ: MRVL) price target of $15.00.

Analyst, Mark Lipacis, said, "MRVL missed Q2 Revenues by 450bps and Non-GAAP EPS by $0.02, driven by a weak macro, lackluster PC sales, and demand softness in North America and China. We expect near term weakness as Q3 revenue guidance was 1000bps below consensus. With a FCF yield of 11% and an EV/FCF of 7.6x, we think the risk reward is attractive, and are buyers on weakness."

FY12 EPS estimate lowered from $1.15 to $0.98 and FY13 from $1.36 to $1.36.
