Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Lam Research (NASDAQ: LRCX) price target of $48.00.

Analyst, C.J. Muse, said, "...Big picture, we continue to see ongoing earnings power for the company of ~$4. As for the outlook for shares from here, we do view the continued share repurchasing plus likely market share wins at Intel (Nasdaq: INTC) as near-term positive catalysts, but do wonder if Lam continues to be viewed as a NAND play, suggesting NAND spending will need to recover in order for the shares to work."

Sees June Qtr revenues of approx. $791 million and Sept qtr at about $1.05 billion. Barclays cuts FY12 EPS from $2.14 to $2.08 and FY13 from $3.28 to $3.20.
