, and raised the price target from $88.00 to $100.00. In the report, Oppenheimer noted, “Ahead of 3Q13 results, we reiterate our Outperform rating and raise our price target to $100 (from $88). Industry trends, and demand commentary, appear solid as evidenced by quarterly results from offshore peers (e.g., TCS, INFY, WIT), which bode well for CTSH.
