Oppenheimer Raising Target On Netezza After Earnings (NZ)
Oppenheimer & Co. is extremely optimistic on shares of Netezza Corporation (NYSE: NZ), after the technology software company reported much better than expected earnings. It raised its price target to $20 and kept its Outperform rating.
In a note to clients, Oppenheimer writes, "We are raising our PT to $20 (from $16) following NZ's much better than expected F2Q results & improved outlook. NZ's strong 2Q revenue performance was entirely driven by its product revenue, which grew 58% from the year-ago period, as existing customers purchased additional solutions in earnest... Overall, NZ remains one of our top small-cap growth picks, and we believe it to be one of the best ways
for investors to benefit from the LT secular trend in data analytics."
