Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ: SWIR) price target of $13.00 (from $12.00).

Analyst, T. Michael Walkley, said, "Sierra Wireless reported very strong Q2/12 results with sales of $167.4M and pro forma EPS of $0.30 or well above their guidance and our estimates of $159.7M/$0.19. While Sierra provided Q3/12 guidance (excluding the Sagemcom acquisition) more in line with normal growth trends, we believe our thesis that solid growth drivers are in place in all of Sierra’s business segments remains intact. Further, we believe the integration of Sagemcom’s M2M business will drive further growth and leverage in 2H/12 and 2013."

"...we are raising our 2012 pro forma EPS estimate from $0.79 to $0.86 and our 2013 estimate from $0.88 to $0.93."
