Canaccord Genuity maintains a 'Buy' on Liberty Media (NASDAQ: LMCA) price target of $101.00.
Analyst, Thomas Eagan, said, "With LMCA’s 5/30/12 FCC filing, we believe the company is preparing to take the next steps towards merging its Sirius (Nasdaq: SIRI) stake with SIRI itself. We expect a merger is one of several catalysts that will serve to reduce the 21% discount of the company’s stock price to its current NAV and the 17% discount to our $101 target. Other catalysts include selling nonstrategic public holdings and repurchasing shares. Additional catalysts, such as a Starz affiliation renewal with Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) and a licensing deal with an OVD, would actually increase the NAV."
