Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) price target of $34.00.

Analyst, Ben A. Reitzes, commented on the Company's recent Analyst Day, seeing some near-term negatives, but overall long-term positive. Reitzes says the near-term is quite weak (NTAP recently lowered Q1 guidance). Longer term, NTAP still sees double digit operating margins, revenue growth and $3.00+ EPS range in three years. All in, ith growing competition and a cautious macro environment, Reitzes recommends staying on the sidelines.

Barclays FY13 EPS estimate at $2.00, FY14 is $2.22, FY15 at $2.46.
