Canaccord Genuity reiterates a 'Buy' on OmniVision Technologies (NASDAQ: OVTI) price target of $20.00.

Analyst, Bobby Burleson, said, "While elevated production costs and taxes constrain earnings power near term, OVTI's strong revenue guide means the company remains a contender at the high end. We reiterate a BUY as valuation remains attractive and cost improvements should follow ramping revenue in out quarters."

"Management guided Q3/C12 to a significant revenue uptick (up 44% Q/Q at the mid-point), with revenues expected to be $355-390M. EPS is expected to be $0.21-0.37, below consensus at the mid-point ($0.29) driven by continued BSI-2 gross margin pressures. This compared to consensus estimates of $268.6M/$0.33 and our estimate of $270M/$0.31."
