Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on Tech Data (NASDAQ: TECD) price target of $52.00 (from $53.00).

Analyst, Ben A. Reitzes, said, "The F2Q margins were quite a surprise for TECD and it is unclear exactly how quickly margins can improve from here as SAP and pricing issues could linger. The mix shift toward tablets bears watching as well. The clear positive is top-line results and guidance above estimates by over $100 million each quarter given better than expected European sales."

FY13 EPS estimate lowered from $5.61 to $5.18, FY14 from $5.98 to $5.75 and FY15 from $6.40 to $6.22.
