Jefferies reiterated their Underperform rating and $12 price target on Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) following mixed Q4 results, management changes, and no quantitative guidance.

The firm comments, "FQ4 (Feb) handset shipments achieved the low end of guidance but ASP and net adds were light. We expect trends to get worse from here and think the Aug Q will be dire. Management changes continue, and mgmt has reconsidered its stance on licensing. We still see risk to Street estimates (FY13 JEF $1.87; St $2.86) and maintain our $12 target and our Underperform rating."

The firm cut Q1 EPS from $0.57 to $0.53.
