UBS maintains a 'Neutral' on F5 Networks (NASDAQ: FFIV) price target of $110.00 (from $120.00).

Analyst, Amitabh Passi, said, FFIV reported in-line results with revenues up 21% year-over-year. However, a likely not a surprise, F5 guided below the street. UBS cuts FY12 by $0.01 to $4.43 and FY13 from $5.28 to $5.22.

Passi said, "We believe FFIV has some promising upgrades due (TMOS v11 including DPI, appliance refreshes), but we await clarity on price-performance, feature set, timing, and greater visibility on the macro front."
