Oppenheimer maintains an 'Outperform' on NetEase.com (NASDAQ: NTES) price target of $72.00.

Analyst, Andy Yeung, said, "Despite Tencent’s recent licensing deal with Activision Blizzard (Nasdaq: ATVI) to operate Call of Duty (CoD) in China, NTES remains well positioned to clinch a deal with ATVI on Diablo III. Meanwhile, our research suggests that NTES will likely see weak revenue growth in 2Q12 given softness in online advertising and the lack of new major game releases. We’re lowering our revenue estimates on slower growth assumptions while keeping our earnings estimates on cost controls."

Yeung lowers Q2 revenues from $330.1M to $326.2M and FY13 from $1.371B to $1.360B.
