DOX: Future Share Repurchases And EPS Recovery Will Support Multiple Rerating

Analysts have trimmed their price target for Amdocs to about $81 from about $90, citing lower sector P/E multiples, even as projections for profit margin and discount rate assumptions have been adjusted. Analyst Commentary Bullish and bearish analysts are looking at the same set of inputs for Amdocs and reaching very different conclusions, which is why you see both Buy ratings and a Sell rating alongside lower price targets clustered in the low to high US$70s.
