Compass Point downgraded Cardtronics Inc (NASDAQ: CATM) from Buy to Neutral with a price target of $31.00.
Analyst, Douglas Greiner, said, "2Q was as expected with Adjusted EPS of $0.38 and our downgrade is unrelated to the quarter.

FY12 EPS estimate lowered from $1.68 to $1.63 and FY13 from $2.00 to $1.94.
