<p><a href='http://www.americanbankingnews.com/zacks/'>Zacks</a>&#8216; analyst wrote, &#8220;Salesforce.com reported modest first-quarter 2014 results. Loss per share was wider than the <a href='http://www.americanbankingnews.com/zacks/'>Zacks</a> Consensus Estimate, while revenue up on a year over year basis. The company has provided decent second-quarter guidance.  Moreover, the higher number of new deal wins was encouraging and so were the geographical contributions. Overall, the company&#8217;s diverse cloud offerings and a better spending prospect projection by Gartner are positive.  Although, the company is growing reasonably in the cloud market, growth prospects have been rationalized to a considerable extent by the renewed focus of tech giants such as Dell Inc., International Business Machines and Hewlett-Packard Co. in the cloud space. However, continued weakness in Europe, currency headwinds, continued operating margin contraction, economic challenges in Japan and stiff competition from its peers keep us concerned. Salesforce has a Neutral recommendation. &#8220;</p>

Separately, analysts at UBS AG cut their price target on shares of Salesforce.com from $51.00 to $42.00 in a research note to investors on Friday. They now have a &#8220;neutral&#8221; rating on the stock. Finally, analysts at FBR Capital Markets cut their price target on shares of Salesforce.com from $56.25 to $55.00 in a research note to investors on Friday. They now have an &#8220;outperform&#8221; rating on the stock.</p>

<p>Salesforce.com (<a href='http://www.analystratings.net/stocks/NYSE/CRM/?RegistrationCode=ArticleClickthrough' target='_blank'>NYSE: CRM</a>) traded down 5.34% on Friday, hitting $43.25.

<p><a href='http://www.americanbankingnews.com/zacks/'>Zacks</a>&#8216; analyst wrote, &#8220;We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on Transocean shares. We acknowledge that operational issues &#8211; such as fluctuating dayrates and costs   have held the company back. We also remain worried about the offshore driller&#8217;s high debt. However, with its technologically-advanced and versatile offshore drilling fleet, strong backlog and considerable pricing power, the company offers an unmatched level of earnings and cash flow visibility. The recent dividend approval and the settlement of a host of civil/criminal claims associated with the Deepwater Horizon incident has also eased the overhang on the stock. Nevertheless, we expect Transocean shares to remain soft until it fully works its way through claims related to the BP oil spill.&#8221;</p>
