UPDATE: Credit Suisse Reiterates Outperform Rating, Raises PT on Amazon.com

In a report published Wednesday, Credit Suisse reiterated its Outperform rating on Amazon.com AMZN, and raised its price target from $301.00 to $334.00. Credit Suisse noted, “After the close on January 30th, Amazon reported solid 4Q12 results. While revenue was modestly below our forecast, consolidated segment operating income (CSOI) of $678 million (up 47% year over year), beat our $568 million forecast (and was above the high end of guidance). Consequently, CSOI margin of 3.2% vs. 2.7% in 4Q11 was 70 bps above our 2.5% forecast, helped by continued upside in gross margin.” Amazon.com closed on Tuesday at $260.35.
