Soleil Securities Upgrades MEMC Electronic Materials (WFR) to Buy; Compelling Value

October 30, 2009 8:35 AM EDT

Soleil Securities upgrades MEMC Electronic Materials (NYSE: WFR) from Hold to Buy. Price target $15.

Soleil analyst says, "This move is entirely based on valuation - we are making no changes to our earnings estimates or price target. We believe the stock is a compelling value below $13/share. Tangible book value is approaching $10.00 per share, with over half of that tangible book cash on the balance sheet. The issues we have raised in recent reports relative to the company's semi-wafer business are, we believe, fully discounted in the company's current share price (and were not when the stock was almost 50% higher five weeks ago)."
