USEC Inc. (USU): Revising share count and estimates following amended 10-K - Goldman Sachs - March 03, 2008

What's changed

USEC filed an 8-K and amended 10-K today, February 29, 2008, to correct the company’s 4Q2007 weighted average share count and reported EPS.

Implications

We have revised our historical 4Q2007 EPS to $0.18 from $0.13 per the company’s amended 10-K. We have also modestly adjusted our diluted share count to 158.4 million from 158.2 million. Our 2008-2010 earnings estimates are unchanged. Our 2011E and 2012E move $0.01 lower, to $0.64 and $1.26, respectively.

Valuation

Our 12-month price target remains $6.50. Valuation is based on scenario analysis and DCF, supported by normalized earnings. Our base-case valuation assumes no conversion of convertible debt given the $11.96 strike price.

Key risks

(1) Valuation remains highly dependent on ACP performance/cost/timing and could differ significantly from our updated expectations, driving both upside and downside risk;
(2) Early termination of the Russian Suspension Agreement;
(3) Competitor capacity additions.
