Barclays reiterates an 'Overweight' on Splunk (NASDAQ: SPLK) price target of $40.00.

Analyst, Raimo Lenschow, said, "Splunk reported better-than-consensus Q2 results, coupled with a better Q3 and full-year guide vs. expectations. In particular, profitability was much better than expected which raises the likelihood of the company achieving break-even faster than previously modeled."

Lenschow also noted that the Splunk Storm is a strategic move, considering that many development projects are moving to the cloud these days, Storm should be a revenue driver over time.

FY13 EPS estimate raised from (0.09) to (0.06) and FY14 from (0.00) to (0.01)
