Canaccord Adams initiates coverage on Atheros Communications (Nasdaq: ATHR) with a Hold. Price target $19.

Canaccord analyst says, "We believe Atheros is seeing strength in Q2, which should drive upside to consensus estimates and a healthy Q3 outlook. However, checks indicate this strength has been driven in part by supply constraints, which are expected to ease in late July or early August, possibly prompting a slowdown in bookings. Furthermore, we believe pricing pressure on 802.11 products may hamper Atheros’ gross margins in the second half 2009...Revenue: Q2/09E $105 million; C2009E $417.9 million; C2010E $480 million; EPS: Q2/09E $0.14; C2009E $0.55; C2010E $0.84."
