UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on SunPower (NASDAQ: SPWRA) price target lowered from $8.00 to $7.50.

UBS analyst says, "SPWRA noted in its 10-K that Total agreed to provide up to $600M of credit in case SunPower’s liquidity falls below $100M (SunPower had $683M in cash as of January 1st) or any debt covenants are broken (SunPower needs to maintain a maximum of 4.5:1 Debt to EBITDA to satisfy $250M Credit Agricole revolving credit facility covenant). This deal was driven by the DoE loan guarantee program’s stringent liquidity requirements following the Solyndra debacle."

"We lower our 2012 and 2013 EPS estimates to $0.14 and $0.50 from $0.15 and $0.55 previously."
