Barclays initiates coverage on Magnachip Semiconductor (NYSE: MX) with an Overweight. PT $18.

Barclays analyst says, "Our thesis on this value idea is that MX may outperform supported by margin expansion driven by a combination of restructured operations, an improving mix and a roster of new products driving solid sales growth. Although we recognize the risks associated with positioning in fiercely competitive markets and with more limited near term visibility given recent events in Japan that could prompt pressure on near term sales, we believe that these factors appear largely reflected in current valuation levels and initiate with OW rating."
