For 2009, Chin cuts his EPS estimate to $1.45, from $2.35; for 2010, he drops to $1.65, from $2.75. For Q1, he sees sales of $294 million, well below the Street consensus of $404 million.

Consensus Rev/EPS estimates (about 20 analysts) for 1Q09 and FY09 on Yahoo are at 402MM/$0.57 and 1.81B/$2.41 respectively. These are very optimistic estimates and will have to come down rather dramatically over next several months. Combination of increased Supply and reduced Demand will result in a complete loss of pricing power and a severe GM compression that will push estimates lower.
