Nomura Securities upgraded Informatica (NASDAQ: INFA) from Neutral to Buy but cut its price target from $38 to $33, following yesterday's Q3 warning and subsequent 23 percent sell-off. The new price target suggests 27% upside from current levels.

"This will likely take several quarters to get through, although we like the current risk / reward in the stock," analyst Rick Sherlund said. "New sales management is in transition and the recovery in license revenues will likely take several quarters."

The firm's revenue / EPS estimates for 2012 and 2013 are now $798 / $1.28 and $865 / $1.40 versus estimates prior to the pre-announcement of $827 / $1.45 and $930 / $1.63, respectively.
