UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on Johnson Controls (NYSE: JCI) price target of $27.00 (from $28.00).

Analyst, Colin Langan, said, "Q3 EPS of $0.64 falls short of guidance ($0.67) and consensus ($0.66) JCI also cut full year guidance to $2.52-$2.56 from $2.75 prior. This is the second miss and guidance revision for JCI this year...We are cutting our 2013 EPS estimate from $3.25 to $2.85. The $0.40 EPS reduction reflects ~$0.05 related to lower BE growth and ~$0.35 related to lower Auto Experience (AE) margins."
