UBS upgraded Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) from Sell to Neutral and raised their price target from $12 to $19 following Q1 results.
The firm comments, "We are upgrading HP to Neutral with a price target of $19 per share. Although the fundamentals remain mixed, the substantial improvement in free cash flow reduces the likelihood of significant downside to the stock. Free cash flow of $2.1bn in F1Q suggests the $5bn guidance for the year will likely prove low, so HP can achieve zero net debt in F2014 and then potentially return more cash to shareholders."
