Oppenheimer upgraded WNS (Holdings) (NYSE: WNS) from Perform to Outperform with a price target of $12.50.

Analyst, Manish Hemrajani, said, "Our upgrade is premised on 1) Improving growth profile following two years of negative to flat growth, 2) Attractive valuation with WNS trading below historical means and at too steep a discount to peers Exlservice (Nasdaq: EXLS) and Genpact (NYSE: G), 3) Healthy deal pipelines and 4) Improving client metrics with solid new client growth."

FY13 EPS estimate raised from $1.02 to $1.04, and revenues increased from $423.3M to $429.1M. For FY14, EPS estimate raised from $1.11 to $1.15 and revenues from $461.2M to $470.3M.
