01/24/06: Disney Buys Pixar

SUSIE GHARIB: Well, it`s official. Disney announced late today that it`s buying Pixar animation studios. Disney is paying $7.4 billion in stock -- or $59.78 a share -- for the company that pioneered computer animation with blockbuster movies like "The Incredibles," "Toy Story," and "Finding Nemo." Steve Jobs, Pixar`s CEO, will join Disney`s board and will become the company`s largest shareholder. Disney also said it would buy back an additional 225 million shares of its stock. In after hours trading, Disney shares rose slightly, after jumping almost 2 percent to $25.99 in the regular session. Joining us now to talk more about this blockbuster deal, Tuna Amobi, senior entertainment analyst at Standard & Poor`s. Hi Tuna.

TUNA AMOBI, SENIOR ENTERTAINMENT ANALYST, STANDARD & POOR`S: Hi. Thanks for having me.

GHARIB: So who`s the real winner here, Disney or Pixar?

AMOBI: I think it`s a proverbial win-win situation for both shareholders. Disney gets a prize in Pixar and Pixar is able to sell out of what we view as a very compelling evaluation. So I think it`s a win-win situation.

GHARIB: What do you think about the price, $7.4 billion. Did Disney pay too much?

AMOBI: I don`t think they paid too much. Pixar`s price already includes a significant amount of takeover premium, so I think the price was roughly 4 percent above today`s closing price, which was within the range of what we expected. So given Pixar`s track record, I think that the price is justifiable.

GHARIB: There`s been a lot of speculation and talk that Steve Jobs ultimately could become the chairman of Disney. Its current chairman, George Mitchell, is looking to retire soon. If that does happen, what does that mean for Disney`s future?

AMOBI: I think corporate governance and the role of Steve Jobs, if we have any concerns, that`s definitely at the top of our list. And that`s what we`re watching very closely. You know, how this would all affect Steve Jobs` tenure on the board and what this might mean, importantly for Disney`s ongoing initiatives with Apple Computer. So, you know, that`s one area that we`re watching very closely.

GHARIB: I`d like to talk to you a little bit about the future of animation. In this deal, Pixar`s innovative founder John Lassiter becomes chief creative officer of Disney, a new position. So do you think that animation is going to become a real growth business once again for Disney?

AMOBI: I think what this means for Disney is that probably there will be a reorientation of their animation division whereby there would probably kind of emphasize that more than the live-action slate. Disney`s been cutting back a little bit on the investments in live action so I think what you`ll see is probably more emphasis on animation, which has been the bread and butter for CGI Studios.

GHARIB: When we talked last week, Tuna, you were very high on Disney`s stock. How do you feel about it now? Is there still enough upside now that all this merger news is out?

AMOBI: I think investors have voted and you saw the stock rise today. I think what you probably see is that over the next year you`re going to see the integration of Pixar. And as investors become more and more comfortable, you`re going to see over the longer term that Disney`s share price reflects that. So we really have a 12-month target price of 32 on Disney today.

GHARIB: All right, Tuna, thanks a lot. We appreciate it.

AMOBI: Thanks for having me.

GHARIB: We`ve been speaking with Tuna Amobi, senior entertainment analyst at Standard & Poor`s.

01/24/06:Quarterly Earnings Give Stocks A Nudge In The Right Direction

JEFF YASTINE: A mixed bag of quarterly earnings helped push stocks slightly higher today. The Dow gained 23 points as five of its components chimed in with earnings and guidance for 2006. As Suzanne Pratt reports, some experts say investors are worrying unnecessarily about future results.

SUZANNE PRATT, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: One fourth of corporate America has weighed in with their quarterly numbers and so far the results have been fairly good. Fourth quarter profits for the S&P 500 are expected to show an average gain of 14 percent. That`s up slightly from a forecast of 13 percent at the beginning of January and a modest deceleration from the third quarter. Today five Dow components reported quarterly profit numbers and all were either "in line" or slightly better than estimates. Experts point out, however, that DuPont slashed its forecast two weeks ago, so the better than expected number was basically meaningless. Still, most experts say it`s not the fourth quarter that`s causing problems for the market. Instead, it`s what some companies are saying or not saying about the future.

CHIP DICKSON, CHIEF INVESTMENT STRATEGIST, LEHMAN BROTHERS: I think in a post Reg FD world, in a world after Reg FD goes into effect, it`s not surprising that managements are a bit more cautious in their guidance. They don`t want numbers getting too high. That`s not their objective right now. They want to be as realistic as possible.

PRATT: Today, for example, DuPont, which has been struggling with damage from hurricanes Katrina and Rita warned that 2006 profits would fall short of estimates. 3M also became the latest major industrial to issue a disappointing forecast.

DAN ORTWERTH, MATERIALS ANALYST, EDWARD JONES: I think the guidance is the big deal. You know, the company had been talking a lot about a 5 to 8 percent growth rate and today they said 4 to 7 percent, and I think that really scared people a lot. I think it scared them more than they needed to.

PRATT: Experts say the market is suffering from a lack of great forward-looking statements. So while there hasn`t been a lot of terrible news, there`s been little to motivate buyers. Nevertheless, many strategists are still upbeat about 2006.

DICKSON: There`s lots of money coming back into the market in the form of dividend increases, net share repurchases and cash from M&A. That ought to be a catalyst that helps push the market higher.

PRATT: Analysts say despite the recent noise regarding 2006 earnings, the outlook for most companies is still positive. Analysts are forecasting low double digit profit growth for the S&P 500, not bad when you consider the historic average is about 7 percent. Suzanne Pratt, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, New York.

1/24/06: "One On One"-With Northrop chairman and CEO Ronald Sugar

SUSIE GHARIB: Shares of Northrop Grumman soared $1.32 today or more than 2 percent on news that its quarterly earnings rose 22 percent. The defense giant earned $0.92 per share in the fourth quarter, $0.09 more than estimates. Revenues rose only slightly to $7.9 billion. Northrop also raised its earnings forecast for 2006 to a range of $4.25 to $4.40 a share. Earlier today, I talked with Northrop chairman and CEO Ronald Sugar and he told me which sectors of the company`s business will drive growth this year.

RONALD SUGAR, CHAIRMAN & CEO, NORTHROP GRUMMAN: You know, we have recast our representation into four major segments now, information services, electronics, aerospace and ships. And certainly we`re going to see a promise in all these areas. We think the aerospace portion will be a little bit flat this year. The other sections will be growing reasonably well.

GHARIB: Dr. Sugar, you also cut your forecast for revenues to $31 billion from $32 billion. Tell us what`s behind that revision.

SUGAR: We made a strategic decision to exit one of our businesses, which is basically the computer reseller business, which we found not to be strategically aligned with the company going forward and also a business without very significant margins as well. That accounts for about three quarters of a billion dollars of revenue that we`re going to not be having next year or rather in `06 where we -- as we exit that business. In addition, of course, we are seeing some slowness in recovery although we`re making steady progress. We will not be at full speed in our shipyards until probably the end of the year.

GHARIB: I was going to ask you.

SUGAR: . putting those two factors together.

GHARIB: I was going to ask you about the impact of hurricane Katrina and when will you be back 100 percent?

SUGAR: We think by the end of the year, Susie, we should be back to about 100 percent. Today we`re operating at about 65 percent of capacity of pre-Katrina. About 90 percent of our people are back on our rolls. Unfortunately, they can`t all come to work on any given day because, as you can imagine, they`re very much consumed with taking care of fixing their homes and dealing with their family situations. But I think by the end of the year, we`ll be back to 100 percent.

GHARIB: What impact is the new reality of reduced defense spending having on your business?

SUGAR: Well, first of all, I would say that there is no reduction in defense spending. There is a reduction in the rate of growth in defense spending where it was going at double digit rates in the last few years. It`s trimmed down to single digit growth rates now. So the fact is that we are still seeing growth, albeit more modest in the marketplace. We see the kind of businesses we`re in as being very much in the center of what`s going to be required for the future, so we are predicting single-digit growth now going forward. The $31 billion earnings -- sorry, $31 billion sales forecast for `06 accounts for that. Certainly the...

GHARIB: Do you see a shift in your portfolio of businesses or do you think that your product choices of today are right for the next five years?

SUGAR: We think that the portfolio we have today is pretty well suited for what we see in the `06/`07 budget processes and what we see coming out of the QDR, the quadrennial defense review. We`re pretty happy with it. If you look at our emphasis areas, very much on information and services, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, precision strike. Those are the kinds of capabilities that are going to require to going forward. We like the portfolio we have for that.

GHARIB: Do you see more opportunities for acquisitions? You have about $1.6 billion of cash on your books.

SUGAR: We`re paying down debt and we`re making significant investments and recapitalizing our shipyards and our other business for the future. And as part of that balanced cash deployment strategy, we are also considering potential acquisitions where they make sense. But I would stress that we`re not trying to acquire companies just to get large. We`re large enough. We want to acquire companies where they make sense strategically and allow us to improve the value of the company going forward.

GHARIB: Nice move on Northrup stock today. What do you think is going to be the catalyst to take it to the next level?

SUGAR: Well, I think if we keep doing what we`ve been doing, which has been performing and making sure we`re driving our capital structure correctly, reducing share count and positioning ourselves with future new business opportunities, I think the market is going to continue to have confidence in this company and this management team to do what we`ve said we`ve been doing.

GHARIB: Dr. Sugar, thank you very much for coming in to speak with us at NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT and congratulations on a good quarter.

SUGAR: Thank you very much, Susie, pleased to be here.

1/24/06: Capitol Hill Is Trying To Drive The Auto Industry Into Better Directions

JEFF YASTINE: Following the lead of its American rivals, DaimlerChrysler today announced a major restructuring at its North American unit. The German and U.S. auto maker will cut 1,500 jobs in North America. That`s part of an overall global restructuring that will see 6,000 white collar jobs eliminated over the next three years. DaimlerChrysler says the moves will help it shave $2 billion in costs.

GHARIB: Add up all the auto layoffs announced recently, and you`ll find 64,000 Americans are about to lose their jobs. That`s the kind of statistic that gets the attention of lawmakers, especially in an election year. But as Darren Gersh reports, there are different views on Capitol Hill on how to steer Detroit towards a healthier future.

DARREN GERSH, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: Touring hybrid hot rods at the Washington auto show, Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman pitched the Bush administration`s preferred solution for Detroit`s troubles: a $1.2 billion Federal investment in hydrogen fuel cells and other cutting edge technologies.

SAMUEL BODMAN, ENERGY SECRETARY: In order to maintain competitiveness, ultimately that`s the responsibility of those who are running the private sector companies. Our job is to try to create an environment where it`s appropriate to do research that`s helpful to them in that endeavor.

GERSH: The Bush administration has rejected a bailout for Ford or GM, arguing Detroit just needs time to adapt to a changing marketplace. But there are bipartisan calls in Congress for a more aggressive approach, beginning with a crackdown on Chinese and Japanese currency manipulation, which lowers costs for Detroit`s toughest competitors.

SEN. DEBBIE STABENOW (D) MICHIGAN: And I believe it`s a wakeup message for the president and for the Congress to get serious about enforcing our trade laws.

GERSH: The U.S. auto industry says it can retool the business model, but government will have to address the health care and retirement costs auto makers have carried for generations.

STEPHEN COLLINS, PRESIDENT, AUTOMOTIVE TRADE POLICY COUNCIL: The cost structure of traditional U.S. companies, because they have been around for so long, because they have such deep roots, is much greater than the cost structure of those who just opened a plant two years ago.

GERSH: Many Republicans are wary of expensive solutions to Detroit`s problems in the free market. But auto unions argue it`s time for Washington to address the competitive burdens manufacturers face in a global economy.

ALAN REUTHER, LEGISLATIVE DIRECTOR, UAW: There are a number of ideas that have been proposed to help with the retiree health care cost problem. One would be some type of Federal catastrophic reinsurance program, perhaps applying to the entire country.

GERSH: But it is now much harder for Detroit to drive the political agenda in Washington, now that foreign-owned auto plants produce half the cars sold in the United States. Darren Gersh, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT, Washington.

1/24/06: "Commentary"- The Corporate Malfeasance Blame Game

SUSIE GHARIB: In tonight`s commentary, a few thoughts on who`s to blame when it comes to corporate malfeasance. Here`s Laura Unger, former commissioner at the Securities and Exchange Commission.

LAURA UNGER, FORMER SEC COMMISSIONER: When the dramatic loss of investor confidence occurred following Enron, WorldCom and their progeny, it became clear that heads needed to roll before investors would return to the markets. That sentiment led to a record number of civil and criminal cases against corporate malfeasors. Actions against an individual clearly serve their purpose. They punish wrongdoers and deter future bad acts. They also seek to recompense victims. In cases of pervasive fraud or systemic lawlessness, the government faces a much more complex task, deciding whether to punish the company itself. As we saw, the government`s indictment against Arthur Anderson sounded the company`s death knell. The government cannot send bad public companies to jail, but the SEC can make them pay penalties in the tens of millions of dollars. In this time of rolling heads, that may sound fair, until you consider who actually pays those fines -- the company`s shareholders. In many cases, the shareholders are also the victims, making the outcome very unfair. So went the argument among the SEC commissioners. Just recently, however, the new commission made clear when companies will face paying a monetary penalty. Simply put, the SEC will consider whether the company and its shareholders unfairly benefited from the fraudulent action and how much the penalty will compensate victims. Now public companies know exactly what conduct puts them in the government`s penalty box. That`s fair play. I`m Laura Unger.

1/24/06: "Paul Kangas' Stocks In The News"

JEFF YASTINE: Investors appeared to like the latest crop of corporate earnings and showed it with slow and steady gains for the major averages. The Dow moving higher, helped by shares of United Technologies and McDonald`s, both reporting better than expected results. At midday, the Dow up 25, the NASDAQ up 11. Both indexes broke to new marginal highs as oil prices retreated slightly in the afternoon and then gave part of it back going into the close. So the Dow rising 23 1/2 points to 10712. The NASDAQ Composite climbing 16 3/4 points to 2265 and the S&P rising over three points to 1266 and a fraction. And over in the bond market, the 10- year note rising, excuse me, falling 9/32 to 100 26/32, the yield at 4.4 percent.

And today we start off with General Electric (GE) falling another $0.33.

And then there`s Lucent Technology (LU) which tacked on $0.03. Including charges the company posted earnings of $0.04 a share in the first quarter. That was $0.02 above estimates.

EMC Corp (EMC) gaining $0.39.

And then Bristol Myers Squibb (BMY) falling $0.77. HSBC downgrading the shares of that drug maker.

And then shares in McAfee (MFE) tumbling nearly $5. An earnings warning from the company as it spreads out its big contracts over multiple quarters, but some analysts raise concerns about McAfee`s ability to continue growing in competition with Microsoft and Symantec, its rivals.

Ford Motor Co (F) rising a fraction.

Then General Motors (GM) gaining $1.20 on fairly heavy volume today.

Pfizer (PFE) shedding $0.30.

And then Time Warner (TWX) rising $0.18.

Texas Instruments (TXN) falling over $1. It reported disappointing results lower than expected fourth quarter results yesterday. Analysts at Merrill Lynch concerned that semiconductor sales may start to fade.

And Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) finishing down $1.83. It reported a 6 percent drop in global drug sales last night and some analysts think that points to Johnson & Johnson`s need to acquire Guidant, not let that acquisition get away and add some new growth to their product niche.

Shares in United Technologies (UTX) rising nearly $2. Fourth quarter earnings rising by a larger than expected announced $0.71 a share.

And then we see Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNI) rising over $3. All those imports coming in from overseas helping the nation`s number two railroad move all those goods around the country. Fourth quarter earnings rising 24 percent.

And then we look at AK Steel Holding

(AKS) which exploded to the upside on better than expected quarterly results. The steelmaker drastically cutting its quarterly losses by 2/3 and some analysts also think that AK could also be a takeover target and that news buoying the entire steel sector. Nucor (NUE), Oregon Steel (OS), U.S. Steel (X) all rising nicely today.

Lexmark International (LXK) inked a gain of more than $5. The printer maker announcing a restructuring plan. It will cut 5 percent of its workforce. Lexmark`s trying to shape up for competition with Hewlett- Packard.

And then shareholders in Coach (COH) bagging a gain of nearly $3. Sales in Japan picking up steam. Coach is trying to double its market share of the luxury leather goods market in that country.

Avaya (AV) losing $1.15. Analysts at Citigroup and Piper Jaffray seeing limited growth potential and down went the stock.

Now let`s look at the NASDAQ where Google (GOOG) climbed over $15, again fighting back from recent weakness.

Apple Computer (AAPL) falling over $1.63. Of course Apple`s Chairman Steve Jobs also the CEO of Pixar and with today`s deal will also join Disney`s board of directors.

Intel (INTC) falling a little bit.

Microsoft (MSFT) down by the same amount.

Sandisk (SNDK) rising $1.88.

And we look at Yahoo! (YHOO) which rose $0.70.

Cisco Systems (CSCO) gaining a bit there.

Dell (DELL) losing $0.32.

Amgen (AMGN) rising a fraction.

Qualcomm (QCOM) gaining $1.15.

Now here`s a look at Symantec (SYMC) which fell $1.04. It`s vice chairman and president Gary Bloom is leaving the company.

And then we check out Ariba (ARBA) shares which jumped nearly $2. It posted improved results of $0.14 a share. That was double analyst estimates.

And finally, on the American exchange, shares in Sulphco (SUF) down again after yesterday`s $9 plunge. The company firing back at a negative article in "Barron`s," calling that article materially misleading, but that did not help the shares today.

And those are our stocks in the news tonight.
