July 25, 2002 12:00:00 PM ET

NEW YORK, July 25 (Reuters) - Merill Lynch said it increased its mid-term investment rating Thursday on custom chipmaker LSI Logic Corp.(LSI) to ``neutral'' from ''reduce-sell.''

Analyst Joseph Osha, in a research note, said the company's second-quarter results were stronger than he had expected. He also said the stock has limited downside after declining 55 percent in the past quarter

``Management's outlook for the September quarter was surprisingly strong, calling for 10 percent sequential revenue growth,'' Osha wrote. ``Consumer and storage are the drivers.''

He narrowed his 2002 proforma estimate to a loss of 19 cents a share from a loss of 25 centsa share, with the net loss narrowing to 82 cents a share from $1.03 a share. For 2003, he boosted his per-share forecast of proforma earnings to 30 cents from 27 cents and net income to 17 cents from 14 cents. In early trade, LSI was up 41 cents to $7.16 a share. REUTERS
