Oppenheimer reiterates an 'Outperform' on Oracle (NASDAQ: ORCL) price target of $33.00.

Analyst, Brian Schwartz, said, "Reiterate our rating on ORCL shares following a recent database technologies due-diligence session at Oracle's headquarters. While no new material information was discussed, the meeting solidified our view that Oracle's database business is likely to experience above-average industry growth over the next few years owing to its leading IT supplier positioning in two mega-trends (data center consolidation & big data) and potential for a refresh of the product suite...We believe these trends represent meaningful revenue growth drivers and margin expansion opportunities for the overall business."

Opp maintains FY13 EPS at $2.67 and revenues of $39.46B.
