UBS maintains a 'Buy' on SanDisk (NASDAQ: SNDK) price target lowered from $60 to $57.

Analyst, Uche Orji, said, "Despite lackluster 1H demand trends that are worse than expected, our positive long term thesis remains unchanged as we expect 2H seasonality from new smartphone/tablet product cycles and mainstream adoption of SSD to underpin growth. Finally, we expect slowing industry capacity additions to set up a strong 2H in terms of ASP and margin improvement."

FY12/13 EPS estimate cut from $4.48/5.20 to $3.80/4.73.
