Needham & Company raised its price target on Buy-rated CBS (NYSE: CBS) from $40 to $48 after the company announced its intention to convert its Outdoor Americas segment into a REIT, and divest itself of Outdoor operations in Europe and Asia.

"We view this transaction as consistent with management's comments that these assets are non-strategic. We estimate that the entire outdoor division is worth an extra $5B to CBS shareholders after completion of these transactions, adding about $8/share ($5B/645mm shares) to our target price."
