Warnaco Shares Soar Following Settlement With Calvin Klein

Shares of Warnaco (WAC :NYSE - news) rocketed Monday afternoon after Calvin Klein announced it was dropping a trade infringement lawsuit against the clothing manufacturer and its CEO, Linda Wachner.

In midafternoon trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Warnaco shares were up $1, or 40%, to $3.50.

According to published reports, the settlement came minutes before a judge was to begin selecting jurors for Calvin Klein's suit against Warnaco, which sells its apparel under a variety of internationally owned and licensed brand names, including Calvin Klein. While the companies released a joint statement of continued partnership, details of the agreement were not made public.

In May, Calvin Klein sued Warnaco and Wachner, alleging the manufacturer violated terms of a jeans licensing agreement and accusing Warnaco of damaging the brand by selling jeans to discount outlets without permission.

Londo, I can assure you that Harvey Golub didn't get on to handle the final paperworks. We're looking at a turnaround specialist assisting Linda here. You're a "Fundamentalist Bottom-Fisher" and you should know how these types of high profile companies work. I see this company running to at least $6 and more. I intent to hold for 1 year. BTW, take a look at DVA. I love that one and WAC will be like it. Good luck.

You remember CNC don't you? High profile people in there as well with Irwin Jacobs and Gary Wendt. Warnaco is the symbol for Calvin Klein and other famous brands. Many high profile people at Warnaco as well.
