Needham & Company maintains a 'Buy' on Ultra Clean (NASDAQ: UCTT) price target lowered from $14 to $11.

Needham analyst says, "UCTT reported better than expected 2Q11 results. While 3Q11 guidance is substantially below Street’s model, we believe it was largely expected by the buy-side, based on guidance provided by peers and customers. We believe the uncertainty surrounding the duration of this pause in semi equipment will continue to limit the stock in the near-term. However, based on our belief that orders in semicap should improve by 4Q11 coupled with continued growth of the non-semi business, we expect the stock to recover beyond this quarter...We lower 2011 EPS to $0.89 and 2012 to $1.00."
