MoffettNathanson analyst Michael Nathanson upgraded Disney to Outperform from Market Perform with a $120 price target. The analyst cites the news that Disney is bringing back former CEO Bob Iger for a two-year term for the upgrade. “We applaud Disney’s Board for the courage to make this change,” Nathanson tells investors in a research note. He expects Iger to examine the investment plans at Disney+ and refocuses investment on “areas of franchise strength and away from broader general entertainment content.” Disney’s multiple will likely move higher as these new changes are implemented, contends Nathanson.
