Mizuho Securities downgraded Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU) from Buy to Neutral and cut the price target to $30.00 (from $37.00), following 3Q15 results. MU reported revenues $3.9B, in line with consensus. EPS at $0.54 was modestly light of consensus $0.57. MU guided F4Q(Aug) revenues at $3.5-3.7B below consensus of $4.2B.
Analyst Vijay Rakesh commented, "MU reported its 3Q15 revenues/EPS at $3.9B/$0.54, modestly light of consensus of $3.9B/$0.57. MU guided F4Q(Aug) revenues at $3.5-3.7B below consensus of $4.2B. While weaker DRAM ASPs were expected, higher than expected 20nm and DDR4 transition costs could compound a PC headwind over the next 2-3 quarters. L-T we continue to see structural supply discipline in memory, but we are moving to the sidelines given the near-term headwinds. We are downgrading MU to Neutral, $30 PT from $37 and also lowering our estimates."
