Analyst, Michael Huang, said, "Q2 was rock solid across the board and impressive, highlighted by accelerating non-Rave product growth (100% y/y vs. 60% in Q1),
a mega $100+ million deal (represents application revenue spread over 5 years) with the division of a top-10 pharma, improving competitive win-rates, notable sequential growth in CRO bid activity (up 100% q/q), and record new customer adds (33 vs 17 in Q1 vs. 9 last year), all of which reflects strengthening competitive positioning, favorable demand trends, and a compelling platform strategy."

FY13 EPS estimate raised from $1.49 to $1.54.
