Update: BofA Upgrades TripAdvisor to Buy From Neutral as 'Activist Engagement Accelerates', Lifts Price Target to $15 From $14

MT Newswires Live03-27

(Updated to include BofA's commentary)

BofA Securities upgraded TripAdvisor (TRIP) to buy from neutral "as governance catalysts improve the probability of asset value realization."

The firm had recently signed a cooperation agreement with Starboard Value, leading to a "Board refresh" with four new directors and a more constructive activist engagement, analyst Nafeesa Gupta wrote in a Friday note.

"Recent activist momentum at the Board level we believe increases likelihood of strategic actions across TRIP's portfolio," Gupta said.

BofA Securities also raised the company's price target to $15 from $14.

TripAdvisor has an average rating of hold and mean price target of $13.82, according to analysts polled by FactSet.
