Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Tiernan Ray]

    Shares of hip carrier Virgin America (VA) are flying, up $4.15, or almost 12%, at $39.96, after underwriters of its November 14th initial public offering were freed up to initiate coverage and responded with mostly positive notes.

    Of the eight underwriters — Barclays, Deutsche, Merrill, Cowen, Goldman, Imperial Capital, Loyal3 Securities, and Raymond James — I see five Buy-equ! ivalent ratings today, and one Hold, from Raymond James.

    Virgin, which began its U.S. operations in 2007, generated $56 million in net income off $1.12 billion in revenue in the first nine months of this year, according to its IPO prospects. That was up from a $4 million loss last year on revenue of $1.06 billion in the same nine-month period. As of September, the company had amassed a deficit of $334 million.

    The shares have a heavy concentration of top stockholders, with the biggest chunk owned by Cyrus Aviation Holdings, at 39.9% before the IPO and an expected 33% following it; VX Holdings, with 22% pre-IPO and 25% post-IPO; and PAR Investments with 6.5%.

    Cyrus, which as recently as 2010 held as much as 55.5% of the stock, is held by Cyrus Capital Partners, a distressed-debt fund manager. VX is the employee holding company for employee share interests in the stock.

    Imperial Capital‘s Bob McAdoo starts coverage with an Outperform rating, and a $52 price target, writing that after losing money its first six years in business, because of startup costs and the need to grab market share, Virgin changed focus last year to making money:

    The company has since reduced or even suspended service in various underperforming markets. More recently, five of the past six quarters have produced net profits, a trend we expect to continue given management's current focus and with recent significantly lower jet fuel prices. Later in this report, we provide more detail regarding some of the specific steps taken to improve profitabilit
