Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Hold' on ESCO Technologies (NYSE: ESE) price target of $33.00.

Canaccord analyst, John Quealy, said, "After executing strongly in ’11, F2012 represents more of a transitional year than expected, given tough compares across platform (e.g. ~$40M in USG). That said, management’s outlook for ’13 (e.g., SoCal Gas, Doble product cycle) is more bullish given the macro environment. Near term, we expect positive sentiment to support shares into our price target."

"Our F2012 revenue/EPS estimates get revised to $720.0M/$2.05 from $745.0M/$2.45. We introduce F2013 estimates of $831M/$2.68."
