NetApp (NTAP) PT Raised to $62 at UBS; Reiterates Buy

UBS raised its price target on NetApp (NASDAQ: NTAP) to $62.00 (from $52.00) while maintaining a Buy rating after reaching out to channel contacts. UBS found that NetApp's pricing is firming with an improved product line. One VAR said, "NetApp's products are selling at a premium to where they were." Customer interest reflects comments CEO George Kurian made a few months ago regarding the company's ability to get paid based on increased value.

NetApp has almost $10 in net cash per share and said it would repatriate cash to buy stock, boost the dividend, and repay debt. FCF is impressive at 19-21% of revenue. The cash conversion cycle did overshoot at -11 days and should head toward zero.
