Barclays maintains an 'Overweight' on Joy Global (NYSE: JOY) price target of $81.00 (from $88.00).

Analyst, Andy Kaplowitz, viewed Q3 as generally below expectations, but saw solid results in JOY's legacy business. JOY is well placed for solidly profitable results despite supply/demand imbalances and softer pricing in some commodity markets, but Barclays no longer sees year-over-year EPS growth.

FY12 EPS Estimate lowered from $7.20 to $6.87 and FY13 from $7.30 to $6.45.
