Jefferies reiterates a 'Buy' on SanDisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) price target of $46.00.

Analyst, Sundeep Bajikar, said, "Q2 results beat, and guidance for Q3 revenue growth of 16% quarter-over-quarter signals a strong ramp of new Embedded NAND into Apple and SSD products into Enterprise and Ultrabook. We think a combination of improving product mix and improving NAND prices is likely to drive gross margin upside as early as Q3."

Bajikar lowered FY12 EPS estimate from $1.53 to $1.33 and FY13 from $2.84 to $2.63.
