Lehman Bros: Likely Upside For Israel's NICE Last Half 98

JERUSALEM (Dow Jones)--Demand from Lucent Technologies Inc. (LU) and other resellers may boost NICE Systems Ltd.'s (NICEY) revenue higher than expected during the second half of 1998, according to a Lehman Brothers report released Thursday to the press.

"We consider our full year revenue and earnings estimates of $102 million and $1.73 remain conservative and may be subject to upward revisions," the Lehman report said. "In addition, a major new product cycle including the launch of the NICE Vision video recording system in 4Q98 may provide a further boost to the 1999 outlook."

Lehman maintained its "buy" rating on the company's shares, with a 12-month price target of $60, and noted recent weakness in the share price should be viewed as a buying opportunity.

At around 1230 GMT, NICE shares were trading up 0.8% at 131.60 shekels (ILS) (ILS=$3.6660) from ILS130.50, compared with a 0.1% rise on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange's main TA-100 Index.
