Auriga maintains a 'Buy' on Globe Specialty Metals (NASDAQ: GSM) price target of $17.00.

Auriga analyst said, "On Friday, GSM management indicated EBITDA for fiscal 2Q12 is expected to decline sequentially by about $12 million (m) from $41.2m. Approximately 83% of this decline we view as largely non-recurring, with the remaining $2m attributed to lower shipments and pricing in the quarter. The guidance is essentially in-line with our recently reduced estimates, which largely excluded many of the more non-recurring items. However, we are revising our fiscal 2Q12 EPS estimate to $0.17 from $0.25 to be more consistent on a reportable basis."
