Barclays reiterates an 'Overweight' on Manpower Inc. (NYSE: MAN) price target of $60.00.

Barclays analyst says, "On Friday, ManpowerGroup posted strong 3Q'11 results with constant currency revenue/EPS +8.8%/+56% (and EPS nicely above expectations). While revenue deceleration occurred in most geographies, all segments (ex Right) grew y/y, and MAN guided for revenue growth and margin expansion for both 4Q'11 and 1Q'12."

"We find MAN attractive at 7.6x prior peak EPS and 11.7x/9.4x our 2012-'13 EPS estimates of $3.50/$4.32 and believe significant upside exists as earnings rebound over the next few years, even amid a weak economic environment."
