Maxim Group Maintains Buy, Boosts PT on Liberty Media (LMCA) Following Starz Spin

Today Maxim Group maintained a Buy on Liberty Media (NASDAQ: LMCA) and raised the price target to $140.00 (from $138.00).

LMCA is spinning out Starz, and this should result in more liquidity to pursue strategic objectives, thinks analyst John Tinker.

"LMCA is trading $101.89/share, a 14% discount to its net asset value of $119/share primarily based on the current market value of the stocks it owns. However, the Starz spin not only increases LMCA’s cash position but creates a purer play on SIRI allowing any increase in SIRI stock price to flow through directly - investors are effectively buying SIRI through LMCA at $1.79/share today," said Tinker.
