Needham & Company initiates coverage on iGATE (NASDAQ: IGTE) with a Buy. PT $23.

Needham analyst says, "iGate acquired Patni earlier this year to become a scale player. While the acquisition comes with integration risks, we believe the integration is proceeding smoothly and we should start to see revenue and cost synergies come through starting in 2H FY11. With the stock trading at just 11x our FY12 EPS forecast, reflecting largely investor concerns about integration, we see a compelling buying opportunity for patient investors."
