Needham & Company maintains a 'Buy' on Quantum Corp. (NYSE: QTM) price target of $2.75.

Analyst, Glenn Hanus, said, "Given QTM’s disappointing recent results, sales/marketing/distribution execution has lagged and QTM has shifted focus and resources to address. Specifically, QTM has launched branding and awareness campaigns (more related to disk/StorNext), focused executive resources on meeting with C-level execs. at key customers/prospects, doubled its Big data overlay salesforce, established a VP of EMEA sales position and hired (started 5/9/12) from EMC/Isilon (NYSE: EMC), hired VP channels among other recent sales changes, recruited new resellers and invested in partner training, broadened distribution evidenced by recent disd. agreements with Teradata (NYSE: TDC), Xerox (NYSE: XRX), Quest (Nasdaq: QSFT), and is expanding reach (i.e., SMB, domestic verticals, emerging mkts, BigData, cloud)."
