UBS maintains a 'Buy' on Flowserve Corp. (NYSE: FLS) price target raised from $111 to $130.
UBS analyst says, "We no longer factor a US recession scenario into our target prices given improving US macro data and recent Euro area leading indicators that have surprised to the upside. Admittedly, there’s an element of marking to market in our action. We’re also making modest estimate updates and re-visiting valuation more broadly."
"Shares are up 15% YTD, outperforming the XLI/SPX by ~450/740 pts. But at 12.9x our NTM EPS (13.3x on 2012) we still see very good value. While the 4Q report may add dimension to earnings, we already have the 2012 outlook, know 1H will be weaker, got a strategy update at the Feb 1 analyst day, and now see few catalysts so we could see a N/T pause, but we’d be constructive on pullbacks."
