Jefferies maintains a 'Hold' on Finisar (NASDAQ: FNSR) price target of $15.00 (from $12.50).

Analyst, James Kisner, said, "Our checks suggest fundamentals in data center optics are improving, likely benefiting Finisar’s LAN/SAN business. However, we’re also hearing that price pressure in WSS modules remains intense. We remain on the sidelines due to valuation and longer-term concerns around technology risk posed by silicon photonics."

Raising Q1 EPS estimate from $0.14 to $0.15, but lowers FY from $0.75 to $0.70.
