VerticalNet (VERT; $230; D-2-1-9) Let?s Get Vertical (Bulletin Available) 00E d$0.92; 01E d$0.07; Market Cap.: $9,269mn We are initiating coverage of VerticalNet with an Accumulate/Buy rating. We consider VERT a core B2B holding. Our 12-18 month price objective is $350. With high-margin advertising and emerging e-commerce revenue streams as well as multi-industry exposure through 56 separate vertical communities, VerticalNet provides investors with a diversified B2B play. With a market cap of $9bn, VERT is highly valued and likely to remain extremely volatile. VERT has had a spectacular run since its February 1999 IPO. As a result, we wouldn?t be surprised to see VERT consolidate over the near-term. However, we would particularly view weakness in the stock as a buying opportunity.
