Comdisco Up 10%; Piper Jaffray Keeps At Strong Buy
Dow Jones Newswires

NEW YORK -- Comdisco Inc. (CDO) shares were up 13.4% Tuesday following U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray's reiteration of a strong buy rating on the company due to its efforts to expand.

In maintaining his rating, analyst Michael Grondahl at U.S. Bancorp said in a research note, "(These developments and others to come) signal the company continues to be successful in transforming itself out of several low-margin businesses to higher margin businesses."

He cited new "behind-the-scenes" developments including announcements on "stakes in many other companies slated to go public in the near-term" and pending multi-year contracts of more than $200 million.

Grondahl also counts as favorable Comdisco's intentions to hire a chief executive for its newly acquired Prism Communications within the next 60 days, and the company's sale of its mainframe portfolio to International Business Machines Corp.'s (IBM) credit unit.

A company spokeswoman said Comdisco is not expecting to make any announcements on Tuesday.

Comdisco shares recently were up 3 3/16 to 27 1/16 on Nasdaq volume of 2.6 million, compared with average daily volume of 1.6 million. On April 14, the company's shares had reached a 52-week high of 30 7/8.

Its shares opened with an imbalance Tuesday.
