Wells Fargo downgraded Sapient (NASDAQ: SAPE) to Market Perform and trimmed the price target on the stock to $10.50 (from $13.50).

Analysts at the bank, led by Edward Caso, said "The 2012 revenue growth outlook was lowered to 8-10% (from 13-16% previously), as SAPE saw delayed project starts and slow client decision-making in the pipeline for its Nitro segment beginning midway through Q2. Management indicated that clients were increasingly cautious on the economic outlook and internal budgets were tightened, although noted that projects were not cancelled and win rates remained strong."
