| 08:36 EDT |  | VRTX | Elan shares could be worh $19 in a buyout, says Jefferies
Jefferies raised its price target for shares of Elan (ELN) to $19 from $14, reflecting what it sees as the value of the company in a takeout scenario. The firm says Elan management suggested they would be open to sale in the $15-$20 per share range. Jefferies believes a high taxpaying suitor could pay the upper end of that range, and lists Allergan (AGN), Regeneron (REGN), Vertex (VRTX), Alexion (ALXN), Zoetis (ZTS), Mylan (MYL) and Perrigo (PRGO) as potential acquirers for Elan. Shares of Elan are up 13c to $13.62 in pre-market trading after Royalty Pharma announced that its buyout proposal for the company has expired. |

After a cautious Barron's article over the weekend, Wells Fargo said it continues to believe concerns around LINN Energy's (LINE) treatment of put contracts are overstated. Further, the firm expects LinnCo's (LNCO) tax liability to remain minimal into the foreseeable future. Wells adds that LINN Energy has the option to sell its put portfolio, an event it feels could serve as a significant catalyst. The firm has Outperform ratings on both LINN Energy and LinnCo. |

| 09:18 EDT | | SFD | Starboard says Smithfield could be worth $44-$55 if sold in parts
Starboard Value disclosed a 5.7% stake in Smithfield Foods and said it delivered a letter to the company's board. Starboard noted that its research indicated that the sum-of-the parts value of the Smithfield's operating divisions, which include Hog Production, International, and Pork, was well in excess of the then-current trading price of the company and that a separation of these businesses "was entirely feasible and could be accomplished without significant tax leakage." Starboard also expressed its belief that there are several likely strategic acquirers for each of the divisions. Starboard stated that it believes the proposed merger with Shuanghui "goes a long way towards closing the gap between the pre-deal market value of the Issuer and the intrinsic value of the business," yet the investor believes the merger "still significantly understates a conservative sum-of-the-parts valuation of the Issuer, which Starboard estimates to be worth between $9 billion and $10.8 billion after tax, or approximately $44 to $55 per share." Starboard told the board that Smithfield could be worth well in excess of the $34.00 per share Shuanghui is paying if it fully shopped its operating divisions to all potentially interested parties. |
