Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Hold' on Intuit (NASDAQ: INTU) price target raised from $50 to $56.

Analsyt, Richard Davis, said, "We have no qualms with Intuit's market position, management or execution. Our only reservation is INTU's high-teens multiple versus its likely revenue and EPS growth of 10% and 13% next year. This is not wildly overvalued, in our view, simply a level that seems likely to continue to produce stock price appreciation roughly in line with the stock market (YTD INTU is up 9% versus 13% on the NASDAQ). That said, for conservative or nervous investors, Intuit could be a safe port in a storm. For us, however, the fundamentals versus valuation do not get us to a Buy."
