Revenue & EBIT was in-line with our estimate, with strength in Commercial margins offset by weakness in Government margins. The company raised its FY11 EPS guidance to $3.85-4.05 (up 10c) vs. DBe/Cons pre-release estimates of $3.90/$3.96. The new guidance assumes a 300bps reduction in full year tax rate from prior guidance (worth ~18c to EPS) offset by higher incentive comp."Deutsche Bank maintains its Hold rating and has raised the price target from $67 to $72.Rockwell Collins closed yesterday at $62.84.
