Jefferies maintained a Buy rating on Transocean (NYSE: RIG) and boosted its price target to $60.00 (from $57.00).
Commenting on Transocean's Q3 results, analyst Brad Handler said "We think solid operations in 3Q, good revenue efficiency guidance and management's tone all support our view that the day-to-day should get 'better'."
Handler thinks the fact that management was willing to put forth guidance that called for average revenue efficiency of 93 percent through 2013 suggests that "3Q's 94.3% revenue efficiency, while probably exceptionally good, is not far off what should be the new norm".
Jefferies raised Q4 2012 EPS estimates to $0.75 from $0.70 and 2013 estimates to $4.80 from $4.35.
