UBS maintains a 'Buy' on Lear (NYSE: LEA) price target cut $1 to $56.

UBS analyst says, "We are lowering EPS estimates from $5.35 to $4.95 to reflect slightly lower sales, lower seating margins (launch cost related), and higher taxes. These are partially offset by higher EPMS margins (scale benefits) and share repurchases. Margins guidance for Seating looks conservative, while EPMS guidance looks aggressive."
