Jefferies analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu assigns an 80% probability to KLX Inc. (KLXI) selling itself as it explores strategic alternatives. A sale of the entire company would generate the most value to shareholders rather than a split or sale of one of the assets, Kahyaoglu tells investors in a research note. Based on aerospace distribution comparable transactions, the analyst estimates a sale price in the $74 per share range. KLX closed Friday down 20c to $63.0. A second option is a spin or sale of the company's ESG assets, Kahyaoglu points out, to which she applies a lower probability of 15%. A third option could be a merger with direct competitor Wesco Aircraft (WAIR), the analyst adds, although she only ascribes a 5% probability given likely antitrust concerns and product/customer overlap. Kahyaoglu has a Hold rating on KLX with a $63 price target.
