Jefferies boosted estimates and its price target on Allot Communications (NASDAQ: ALLT) from $25 to $28 following stronger than expected Q1 results.
The firm comments, "Robust Q1 revenues of +10% Q/Q dramatically outperformed expectations (St/JEF -3%), typical telco equipment seasonality, and the recent weakness seen by most telco equipment companies. This demonstrates the continued secular drivers behind deep packet inspection equipment and related value-added services like video optimization; however, we still see the valuation as full as our $28 target (from $25) represents 42x 2012 EPS."
Q2 EPS goes from $0.13 to $0.17 and FY12 from $0.60 to $0.67.
