Auriga reiterates a 'Hold' on First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR), PT $167.
Auriga analyst says, "We reiterate our rating on First Solar after two capacity expansion announcements over the past week. While we make no change to our model until a formal announcement about the French expansion is released, we briefly compare our current model against one that would not include the French facility. The result is that our 2012 EPS estimate would change nominally and not lead to a change in our price target. We see 2012 total production decreasing by only 25MW, though more 2H12 weighted. Our $167 target is 15x our 2012 EPS estimate of $11.15."
