Brean Murray Carret & Co. maintains a 'Buy' on Dish Network (NASDAQ: DISH) price target of $37.00.

Analyst, Todd Mitchell, said, "Last week, DISH reported solid 1Q12 results that were underpinned by a return to positive sub growth with the addition of 104,000 new subs in the quarter. On the company’s earnings conference call, DISH spoke optimistically about the prospects for receiving a waiver request from the FCC on the DBSD and Terrestar spectrum by late-summer/early-fall and reiterated its preference for developing a wireless service in partnership with one of the existing wireless providers rather than building a network on its own, or selling the company, or its wireless assets, to an existing player in the wireless space. The company also raised $1.9 billion in debt, and is reportedly involved in the Lightsquare bankruptcy negotiations as a senior creditor."
