Wedbush maintains a 'Neutral' Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) price target of $7.50 (from $9.50).

Analyst, Scott Sutherland, said, "We continue to be on the sidelines given disappointing FQ1 results and outlook. Even more worrisome, BlackBerry 10 (BB10) is further delayed until Q1 of CY13. While cost-cutting and ascertaining strategic alternatives are positives, we believe RIM needs to make a strategic shift sooner rather than later, as we believe their integrated strategy remains too far behind Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL)."

Slashes FY13 EPS from (0.04) to (1.47) and FY14 from $0.37 to $0.11. Lowers FY13 revenues from $13.0B to $9.9B and FY14 from $12.4B to $11.0B.
