Sirius XM and Others Benefitting From Increasing Value of Spectrum Ownership

Andrew Montero — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:34:51 +0000

Sirius XM Radio purchased spectrum in the 2320 MHz to 2345 MHz range at FCC auction over 12 years ago for $170 million dollars combined and subsequently poured billions of dollars into infrastructure, content and management over the ensuing years. Sirius XM, still a fledgling company as a combined entity, only recently reported their first ever consecutive profitable quarters. Several years after Sirius XM Satellite radio purchased their spectrum licenses and had started building out their infrastructure, the FCC auctioned off another section of spectrum which bookends the spectrum belonging to Sirius and XM in the 2305-2320 MHz and the 2345-2360 MHz ranges

Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI) Breakout Continues

Andrew Montero — Wed, 11 May 2011 12:30:39 +0000

Sirius XM continues to impress post 1st Quarter conference call with a new 52 week high of $2.36 a share as well as a new closing high of $ 2.35 cents. Short interest was up according to the April 29th information released yesterday. So what is driving Sirius XM higher? Could it be that spectrum, an all too scarce commodity, is much higher in terms of valuation today than it was just 4 or 5 years ago?

Sirius XM Radio Surges to New 52 Week High on High Volume

king1 — Tue, 10 May 2011 19:44:20 +0000

Shares of Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ:SIRI) surge to an intra day high today of $2.35, setting yet another 52 week high. It had already established a new 52 week high on more than one occasion last week as well. This move is coming on higher than average volume. This may cause investors to ask the question, "Is this move news based?". It could very well be a news story yet to come or still solid demand from their strong quarter reported last week. Whatever the cause the stock has been on a tear since September of 2010 and hasn't slowed since.

SIRIUS XM, Liberty Media and DISH…..Pt 2

Andrew Montero — Wed, 04 May 2011 12:47:20 +0000

In my last article I concentrated on why I was so excited to see a DISH (NASDAQ:DISH) Network executive on the Sirius XM Board after being recently appointed. Having given you an idea of how synergies can and will be achieved from a Dish perspective with Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI), I will now explain how Liberty Media (NASDAQ:LCAPA) needed to be part of the picture.

Sirius XM, Liberty Media and DISH….Synergies Anyone? Part 1

Andrew Montero — Mon, 02 May 2011 12:53:09 +0000

With the recent addition of Dish network(NASDAQ:DISH) executive Carl Vogel to the Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI) Board, many are asking what is the fit. Vogel was one of Dish networks executive officers from 1994 until 1997, and served as President from 1995 until 1997 when he was a key member of the executive team that created and launched DISH Network in 1996. Upon reviewing recent acquisitions by DISH and Charlie Ergen, I came across the following pending acquisition, which I think is a much bigger deal than some have realized.

DISH Network Prepares to Battle Netflix

Andrew Montero — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 13:48:23 +0000

Last week, DISH Network released a PR which I find quite exciting. This PR in and of itself is very good, but couple it with the recent winning bid for Blockbuster Video by DISH and I would say a certain other online movie service is in for a major battle; are you paying attention Netflix (NSADAQ: NFLX) ? Perhaps due to waiting for final approval from the bankruptcy court and satisfaction of certain conditions related to the bankruptcy, DISH network has been relatively quiet about the winning auction bid for Blockbuster. In the April 21 filing with U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York, lawyers for DISH said they needed more time to determine which of the 1,700 Blockbuster stores would remain in operation.

Tivo Poised For Another Price Spike

Gino Lattarulo — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 00:49:41 +0000

Tivo (TIVO) has recently blown the doors off of its price action, rising almost 70 percent last week after the federal appeals court upheld a contempt ruling against EchoStar (SATS) and Dish Network (DISH) for continual patent infringement. All of this isn't exactly stunning news of course but it does lend itself to some interesting possibilities from Tivo in the future.

At The Threshold: A New Global Media Era

king1 — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 14:31:59 +0000

By Relmor Demitrius - Terrestrial radio. Broadcast TV. Newsprint circulations. If people heard it, saw it, or read it, they did it through these 3 mediums only a short time ago. Today is a much different age. People have access to information now through a vast array of additional avenues once thought to be impossible. The internet, Smart Phones, laptop computers, satellite television and radio, cable TV, and even the Kindle are allowing the distribution of information that is becoming harder and harder for the old media companies to be able to control.
