Barrington Research is reiterating its Outperform rating on shares of Nordson (NASDAQ: NDSN), but is cutting its price target from $65 to $45 following its third quarter results.
The company released its third quarter results with sales $13 million below the firms estimate and EPS $0.07 below. Management offered fourth quarter guidance with a sales range of $315-327 million and EPS of $0.77-$0.84. The firm noted that management believes 2012 will result in higher sales despite deterioration.
The firm is lowering its 2011 and 2012 EPS estimates from $3.36 and $3.64 to $3.20 and $3.15 to reflect growing global uncertainties.
