Wedbush upgraded Exide Technologies (NASDAQ: XIDE) from Neutral to Outperform with a price target of $5.00.
Wedbush analyst says, "Upgrading Exide to as we believe the market has over-discounted problems at Transport-NA, valuing the segment at well below replacement value, yet discrete gains are likely in CY2012. Competitive implications of new smelting assets coming online at JCI, and the consolidation of junk units to start those assets is now understood by the market for the impact on both product pricing and the strategic procurement of lead. The pending closure of Bristol, TN, is an indirect remedy, saving $20m-$25m by 2HF13."
