SLI - BancBoston Robertson Stephens Initiates Coverage of SLI With a Buy Rating SAN FRANCISCO, July 8 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by BancBoston Robertson Stephens, a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, CRD number 41271: BancBoston Robertson Stephens managing director and senior industrial growth analyst Michael R. Mach today initiated coverage of SLI, Inc. (NYSE: SLI - news), with a Buy rating. SLI is a leader in the global lighting industry, providing customers with a full range of lighting products and services. ''We are initiating coverage of SLI with a Buy rating,'' said Mach. ''Over the last several years, through 23 strategic acquisitions, SLI has emerged as a new leader in the $75 billion global lighting market. SLI is the only 'pure-play' company participating in the broadly defined lighting industry. ''Going forward, we expect SLI to continue to implement its proven acquisition and internal growth strategy,'' said Mach. ''Over the next three-to-five years, we believe SLI will grow its earnings-per-share at a compound-annual rate of 25 percent or better. ''We expect that as SLI moves along its well-defined-growth path, its share price will advance toward our 12-month price target of $43, more than 50 percent above its current share price,'' said Mach.
