Wells Fargo Upgrades Macquarie Infrastructure (MIC) to Outperform; Raises Valuation Range

November 9, 2009 7:08 AM EST

Wells Fargo upgrades Macquarie Infrastructure (NYSE: MIC) to Outperform. Valuation range increased from $6-9 to $9-12.

Wells analyst says, "Upgrading to Outperform based on, 1) shares trading at a discount to the sum of the parts value, 2) improving core operations, and 3) moderate leverage at MIC's core segments and minimal corporate risk from high leverage at Airport Services...Most of the value is derived from Bulk Storage, minimal value from Airport Services currently, but over time debt reduction could drive positive equity value at this segment. Increasing CAD estimates based on stabilization at Airport Services, solid progress reducing debt, and development projects coming online at IMTT. Our 2010 estimate is $2.14/sh, and we are introducing our 2011/2012 estimates of $2.57/$2.77 per share."
