RESEARCH ALERT-Nextel reiterated neutral
NEW YORK, Feb 24 (Reuters) - Lehman Brothers said Wednesday it reiterated a neutral rating on shares of wireless communications company Nextel Communications Inc.

-- Cited ''mixed'' fourth quarter results. Said Nextel's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) of $42 million was below $55 million Lehman estimate.

-- Cut estimate of 1999 net additional new customers to 1.57 million from 1.63 million.

-- Kept end-1999 price target at $23 a share.

-- Said given accelerated industry consolidation, Nextel was increasingly likely to be acquired, but added ''... we find Nextel stock way out over its skis, with only the prospects for a deal at a premium supporting the current value.''

-- Shares fell 11/16 to 30-1/8 in mid-morning.
