Benchmark upgraded MIPS Technologies (NASDAQ: MIPS) from Hold to Buy with a price target of $10.00.
Analyst, Gary Mobley, said, "We are raising our rating on shares of MIPS based on a heightened target value for the company’s 580 patents; these have value on a standalone basis or as a key component for the outright sale of the company to a defensive or strategic buyer. We believe the shares offer a compelling risk-reward tradeoff with a $5.00 target supported by the fundamentals of the business, the company’s net cash position and the present value of the royalty stream. For every $100 million increment in the value of the company’s patent portfolio, the value of the company increases by ~$1.90/share."
