RadioShack's problems are well known on Wall Street. Among other difficulties, the company's business model is built on the wireless market, a part of the economy described as "mature" by analysts at Goldman Sachs. This results in margin pressure.
But Radio Shack isn't without hope in the view of Goldman analyst Matthew J. Fassler. He thinks RadioShack management is "credible" and may offer hope.
"RSH has the opportunity for a turnaround under the new leadership, but with limited strategic opportunity, and limited financial flexibility, in our view."
"In the interim, the company has the resources to stay liquid through 2013 under our base case and downside scenarios, despite high leverage and minimal fixed charge coverage," said the analyst.
Goldman Sachs maintained a Neutral rating on RadioShack Corp. (NYSE: RSH) price target of $2.90.
