Rosenblatt Reiterates Buy on Pandora (P) as Tim Westergren Takes Over as CEO

Rosenblatt reiterated a Buy rating on Pandora (NYSE: P), with a price target of $15.00, following the company's announced management changes. The company announced that co-founder, Tim Westergren, is back in as CEO. Rosenblatt sees this move as very positive for the company on its fundamental outlook.

Analyst Martin Pyykkonen commented, "Pandora’s co-founder, Tim Westergren, is back in the saddle full time as the company’s CEO (he was CEO in the company’s very early days during 2002- 2004). We think this is very positive for Pandora on its fundamental outlook. Yesterday’s stock reaction was clearly negative, but we think that only suggested it being a sign of no immediate buyout, as had seemed to be speculated from a new Board member with media industry and private equity experience."
