FBR Capital reiterates an 'Outperform' on ENSCO International Plc (NYSE: ESV), PT $70.

FBR analyst says, "We reiterate our rating and price target on ESV due to our long-term positive outlook on jackup day rates and the company's strong strategic position. We are increasingly bullish on the company’s pending merger and believe that, on a long-term horizon, the transaction will be positive for the stock. We foresee this as being a good complement to the company’s current exposure to upside from the tightening jackup market." (FBR lowers FY12 EPS estimate from $5.70 to $5.65)
