Here is another reason KLAC is up about 8 percent today at this point in time.

S&P REITERATES BUY RECOMMENDATION ON SHARES OF KLA-TENCOR

Before one-time charges, Dec-Q operating loss of $0.12 vs $0.75 EPS is wider than our $0.03 loss estimate. Sales fell 26% from Sep-Q on lower foundry and memory spending.

With 92% of orders from the logic segment, we see orders near a trough. We see KLAC sustaining sales better than peers, as it has minimal memory and foundry exposure left.

We are encouraged by its intent to reduce quarterly cash breakeven to $300M-$325M.

We lower our FY 09 (Jun) estimate by $0.58 to $0.31 loss and FY 10's EPS by $0.55 to $0.05 EPS.

We keep our target price of $25, on an above-peer price/sale.>>
