FBR Capital maintains a 'Market Perform' on Symantec (NASDAQ: SYMC), PT raised from $18 to $21.

FBR analyst says, "While the company’s recent results give us increased confidence that Symantec has gotten its arms around its business and is doing a good job of digesting its recent acquisitions into the fold, we maintain our Market Perform rating given our concerns around consistency and the company’s nearterm profitability profile."

"For FY1Q12 (June) we are raising our total revenue and pro forma EPS estimates to $1.58 billion and $0.37 versus our prior estimates of $1.55 billion and $0.35. For FY12 we are raising our total revenue and pro forma EPS estimates to $6.60 billion and $1.60 versus our prior estimates of $6.50 billion and $1.52.
