Extra: Emmis Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: EMMS) is an asset play that was also brought to my attention by the investor who passed me TravelCenters of America. The CEO recently offered $2.40 to takeover the company. EMMS is now trading at $0.79. More recently, the company has succeeded in buying back preferred shares at $15.56. The deal has fallen apart in the past multiple times and people trying to arbitrage it have gotten burned. With a 52-week range topping at $1.34 and bottoming at $0.58, I'd say that at $0.79 there is serious upside to where the CEO tried to buy them out, over 200%. The risk here is low and the upside remains and the company has made progress escaping the death grip of the preferred shareholders. Target: $1.25-$1.75. Outperform.
