UBS maintains a 'Buy' on Fluor (NYSE: FLR) price target of $68.00 (from $69.00).
Analyst, Steven Fisher, said, "Q2 was better than expected, and the tone continues to be positive. We think FLR is setting up for good growth in 2013, but higher NuScale costs are a NT drag and mining remains uncertain. The growth rate will partly depend on whether FLR reduces its NuScale stake. We also reduced our Oil & Gas margin estimates, while raising revenue estimates. We expect Oil & Gas bookings to remain solid next year, and infrastructure to mitigate mining, allowing backlog to grow, while cash provides some support."
FY12 EPS estimate lowered from $3.74 to $3.68, raises FY13 from $4.20 to $4.30.
