Digital outdoor advertising leader. Third place company behind Clear Channel and CBS (Viacom). Industry moving towards digital replacement.

Submitted July 17, 2009

This company is strapped with debt and declining financials. The recent run up was due to a short interest that was greater than the company float. I see this company returning to the $5-7 level.

LAMR has an illiquid balance sheet and a too high valuation compared to its sales potential. It is also loss making at least until 2011.
