Nomura Securities maintains a 'Neutral' on Time Warner (NYSE: TWX) price target of $39.00.
Analyst, Michael Nathanson, said, "We are raising 2012E EPS by $0.04 to $3.16 after flowing through some of the $0.07 beat as well as incorporating incremental data points on advertising trends and timing of expenses. This represents EPS growth of 9% Y/Y, which is below the company’s new 2012 guidance of “low double digit growth”. We remain cautious on Film in 2012 and importantly do not incorporate any incremental SVOD digital checks in our forecasts. We project share buybacks will decelerate by almost 50% to $2.5 billion in 2012. We are reducing our 2012 affiliate fee growth at Networks to 5.5% growth while maintaining our 5.5% advertising growth estimate. Our 2012/13 EPS estimates go to $3.16/$3.57 from $3.12/$3.53."
