Deutsche Bank maintains a 'Buy' on Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) price target of $650.00.

Deutsche analyst, said, "We believe weak results largely reflect a demand pause ahead of iPhone 5. As such, we cut CY12 revenue/EPS to $168.0B/$46.50 (vs. prior $172.3B/$50.00) but CY13 rev est’s tick up to $199.4B/$56.00 (vs. prior $197.5B/$56.00). Our $650 PT is based on ~10x CY12E EV/FCF; the lower end of its historical 7-29x range. We view the multiple as appropriate given AAPL’s growth & profit profile. Risks include macro deterioration, ASP declines & additional phone competition."
