Our 2012 EPS estimate is lowered to $1.37 from $1.48 (including the $0.03 miss to 2Q) and 2013 is reduced to $1.40 from $1.60. These compare to consensus of $1.37 and $1.43, respectively. FY12 guidance is now for EPS up LSD (or ~$1.38-$1.41 from $1.46-$1.49). We are establishing our price target for Dec 2013 (from 2012) and simultaneously lowering it to $14 (from $17).”Staples closed on Tuesday at $11.37.
