Mirant Corporation - A Wax Ink Short Report

“We are an independent power company with a solid fleet of assets, experienced leadership and financial strength. Through excellence, discipline and creativity, we are delivering value.”

Welcome to Mirant Corporation (NYSE: MIR) an energy company that produces and sells electricity in the United States.

The company owns or leases 10,280 MW of electric generating capacity located in markets in the Mid-Atlantic (5,244 MW) and Northeast regions (2,689 MW) and in California (2,347 MW). The company also operates an integrated asset management and energy marketing organization based in Atlanta, Georgia.

The comany's customers are ISOs, investor-owned utilities, municipal systems, aggregators, electric cooperative utilities, producers, generators, marketers and large industrial customers.

Mirant's generating portfolio is diversified across fuel types, power markets and dispatch types and serves customers located near many major metropolitan load centers. Their total net generating capacity is approximately 31% baseload, 57% intermediate and 12% peaking.

The company was incorporated in Delaware on September 23, 2005.

Pursuant to the Plan for Mirant and certain of its subsidiaries, on January 3, 2006, New Mirant emerged from bankruptcy and acquired substantially all of the assets of Old Mirant, a corporation that was formed in Delaware on April 3, 1993, and that had been named Mirant Corporation prior to January 3, 2006.

The Plan provides that New Mirant has no successor liability for any unassumed obligations of Old Mirant. Old Mirant was then renamed and transferred to a trust, which is not affiliated with New Mirant.

Financial Basis
All financial data is based on the company’s annual financial information for fiscal year end December 2007.

Short-Term Investor (Hold of one year or less)
Based on a recent close of $15.62, the stock has First Resistance at $18.16, a 16% increase from recent levels, Second Resistance at $25.93, a 66% increase from recent levels, and First Support at $11.99, a 23% decline from recent levels.

While I am enticed when I see a 66% delta between the Recent Close and Second Resistance (200 day moving average), I am far more leery that the stock can overcome its 52 week low of $11.99, something that must happen before the stock can move above its 50 day moving average of $18.66.

In the end, I simply don't believe the stock is poised to make such a move at this time, and so I have no short-term investment interest in this stock at the present time.

Long-Term Investor (Hold of 3-5 years)
I have added the stock to my watch list with a Reasonable Value Estimate of $12.93, a Buy Target of $6.47, a First Sell Target of $12.61, and a Close Target of $13.65.

Based on the financial metrics that are important to me when evaluating a company for potential investment, I have added a further reduction to my Buy Target of 69%, making my Strength of Statement Buy Target $1.99.

In the end, based on my perception of management's abilities, both prior and current, and in consideration of the vast number of lawsuits the company is currently facing, I simply do not believe that Mirant Corporation is a viable investment candidate at this time.

My Investment Opinion
I am rating this stock a strong sell. Considering the company's current Debt load of $11.17 per share, and Free Cash flow of ($3.31) I think the company will make for a very poor investment for a very long time.
