This is our twenty-third quarterly Analyst Focus List (AFL) highlighting
ow sector analysts' best ideas. Starting with this issue, we are publishing
the high yield portion of our AFL as a standalone report.
Investors have complained for a long time that the high yield market has
felt picked over. While find flows have favored loans YTD, and our index
briefly backed up to about 6% in February, investors wonder whether to
call today's Index yield of 5.7% "high yield." Still, everything is relative.
Inside this report you'll fund 20 long ideas and 4 shorts that we think have
the potential to outperform in the next three months. These ideas are the
product of extensive bottoms-up analysis and our analysts are, as always,
available to talk through their assumptions and rationales.
This quarterly roundup is a complete refresh; ideas not carried over and
presented again are considered superseded by new ideas. Names may be
removed intra-quarter where a valuation target has been largely or wholly
achieved or the original rationale is considered no longer valid. New ideas
can also be added intra-quarter. For intraquarter additions or deletions,
analysts will post a brief summary of their rationale to our J.P. Morgan
Markets website. Please check J.P. Morgan Markets for the most up-to-
date AFL at any time.
We hope you find this report helpful in meeting your investment
objectives.
See page 22 for analyst certification and important disclosures.
J.P. Morgan does and seeks to do business with companies covered in its research reports. As a result, investors should be aware that the
firm may have a conflict of interest that could affect the objectivity of this report. Investors should consider this report as only a single factor in
making their investment decision.

AMR Corp. (AMR)
Overweight Buy AMR 7.0% B-Tranche 11-1 EETCs
Moody's: B1 (31-Jan-18 maturity, 8-Feb-17 AL)
S&P: B+
Offered at $106.125 (5.19% yield); Target: $108.5 (4.52% yield)
Airlines Credit and Investment Highlights:
Mark Streeter' • AMR Corporation is the parent company of American Airlines, one of the
(1-212) 834-5086
mark.streeterOpmorgan.com
world's largest international airlines. On 29-Nov-II. AMR filed for Chapter I I
bankruptcy protection. On 14-Feb-13, AMR and US Ainvays announced plans to
merge. On 27-Mar-I3, the bankruptcy judge overseeing the case approved the
Jonathan Rau
(1-212) 834-5237
merger. Final Doi and DoT approvals are expected later this year. We expect an
jonathan.d.rau©Ipmorgan.00rn exit from bankruptcy and merger in early 4Q13.
• This deal is backed by 15 x 737.800s (1999-2001), 6 x 757-200 ETOPS (1999,
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC 2001), 2 x 767-300ERs (1999), and 7 x 777-200ERs (1999, 2000). The 7.00%
bonds are the B-tranche behind the 5.25% A-tranche.
• Using a mean of appraisals from Aviation Specialists Group (ASG) and Ascend
Worldwide, we calculate a current market value loan-to-value (LTV) of 84.9%
through this B tranche. After applying our haircuts, we calculate our IPM LTV of
ANALYST` 91.2% (assuming full draw of the liquidity facility which covers 18 months of
interest). The step-up in leverage from the As to the Bs is 19.4%.
FOCUS Why This Pick Should Outperform:
\ LIST • We think the A-B spread in EETCs is too wide (the current range is —200-
250bps; we think fair value is 75-100bps). For the AMR 1 1-I deal, the A-B
spread appears wide at —220bps. In general, we expect B-tranches to outperform
tt. A-tranches going forward. Note that the average senior/sub spread in FIG Banks
is only 55-60bps.
• The —220bp spread pick-up for 19% of leverage is too wide, in our opinion, given
the fact that these core-to-the-fleet aircraft are cross defaulted and cross
collateralized, minimizing the probability of a rejection in the event of another
AMR bankruptcy down the road.
• We expect ratings on the 7%s to rise 2-3 notches once AMR emerges from Ch.
II and the agencies re-rate the issuer higher (the upside at Fitch is higher if they
rate the deal). Our target yield is that of our current HY BB index, which we
believe is achievable for the 7%s given the short •17 average life.
• We expect New American Group to achieve higher EBITDAR margins than
DAL and UAL in 2014, in part due to AMR and LCC unions' negotiating away
profit sharing. Specifically, we expect 2013/2014 EBT1DAR of S6.0bn and
$6.8bn. or 14.9% and 16.1% margins, respectively. See our merger model here.

Dana Holding Corp. (DAN)
Overweight Buy DAN 6.75% Sr. Notes due 2021
Moody's: B2: Outlook. S
S&P: BB; Outlook, P Offer: $110.00 (4.1% YTW, 380bp STW)
Target: $112.00 (3.4% YTW, 311bp STW)
Automotive
Credit and Investment Highlights:
Eric J. Seale'
1-212-270-9624 • Over the past four years. Dana has lowered leverage by 2.3x (despite acquiring
Eric.J.Selle@ipmorgan.com controlling stakes in two of its JVs) via EBITDA growth, stock issuance, asset
sales and free cash flow generation.
Yao Li • Despite guiding to a 2% decline in sales, Dana expects FY13 EBITDA to grow
1.212-270-9455
Yao.L.i@ipinorgan.com 3% and free cash flow to total $250mm.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC • Credit Improvement: We project Dana will generate FY13 EBITDA of
$808mm, milking in coverage of 11.5x, leverage of 1.1x and net leverage of
negative 0.5x. We note that the gross leverage levels are roughly half the average
leverage in the J.P. Morgan High Grade index and that net debt is expected to
decline 0.2x y/y.
ANIILYS • Total Return Potential: Should the 6.75% notes (B2/BB, stable/ positive
outlooks) due 2021 converge with J.P. Morgan's BB index (358bp STW),
FOCUS investors could achieve a 6.7% total return in the next year (or 9.0% to the 3PM
split BBB Index). We believe an upgrade is likely and these returns would exceed
the 5.7% YTW of the JPM HY Index and the 4.7% YTW of the Auto sector.
\ LIST
• Relative Value: We expect Dana's notes to generate more total return than
similarly rated bonds of LEA, DLPH and TRW, all of whom have similar credit
profiles but are more shareholder friendly with their free cash flow, have more
European exposure (3 peers generate 40% of sales from European production vs.
28% for Dana) and are less levered to the heavy duty market. Lear's 4.75%
Ba2/BB rated notes of 2023 are offered at 45bps inside Dana's bonds, TRW 4.5%
Ba2/BB rated notes of 2021 are 99bps inside and Delphi's Bal/BB+ rated notes
of 2023arc 64bps inside. In turn, despite their shorter duration (3 competitor
bonds mature in 8-10 years vs. 3-year 1st call for Dana), Dana's notes offer 6.1%
current yield vs. 4.7% for its peers.
• Liquidity: In FY13, we estimate Dana will generate $424mm in core free cash
flow (EBITDA less capex, interest and taxes), which represents 47% of its
outstanding debt. Dana's bond covenants are fairly weak, as they offer little
protection over restricted payments to equity holders. Despite our projection for
Dana to spend $104mm on preferred and common dividends and repurchases of
common stock, we expect Dana to generate $203nun of free cash flow. We
contrast this fully loaded free cash flow versus projections of negative $391mm at
Lear and negative $348mm at TRW due to their shareholder friendliness. Dana
also has no considerable outstanding debt maturing until 2019 and $1.4bn in total
liquidity.

Credit and Investment Highlights:
Automotive
• Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) designs, develops, manufactures and sells premium
Erie J. Salle` sports sedans and sports cars (Jaguar brand) and premium all-terrain vehicles
1.212.270-9624
Erie.J.Selle@pmorgan.com (Land Rover brand). During its 3Q12 ended Dec. 2012, JLR's revenues grew 1%
to £3.8bn but its EBITDA fell IrA to £0.5bn due to elevated product
Yao Li development costs and mix degradation. After £0.2bn of YTD cash bum, JLR
1-212-270-9455 ended 3Q12 with net debt of negative £0.3bn. At Dec. 2012, the company had
Yao.Lifajpmoroan.00m cash of £2.1bn and undrawn committed facilities of £1.0bn.
Why This Pick Should Underperform:
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC
• Credit Profile: For FYI 3E we estimate JLR will generate EBITDA of £2.2bn.
After backing out nearly £0.9bn of capitalized R&D, EBITDA would total £1.3bn
and total leverage would be 1.7x. We expect EBITDA to lag its £2.4bn of
expected cape; taxes, interest and pension provisions. While some of this cash
bum is offset by £0.5bn in estimated working capital inflows, JLR's capex should
ANALYS remain elevated for the next couple years. Due to JLR's new UK engine facility,
its JV in China with Chery and potential for projects in Brazil and Saudi Arabia,
FOCUS we project 2014-15 capex to average £2.7bn per year. These levels of capex arc
£1.0bn above the average annual capex experienced in FY12-13. More
\ LIST importantly, JLR's FY14-15 capex is expected to exceed fully loaded EBITDA
(before backing out capitalized R&D) by £0.3bn.
• Relative Value: JLR's 5.625% Ba3/BB- rated notes of 2023 are offered at 4.7%
'k , YTW and 342bp stt. These levels compare to the 5.3% YTW and 493bp stt
generated by Chrysler's 8.25% BIB rated notes of 2021. Chrysler also has close
to zero net debt, but is less European focused. Furthermore, Chrysler generates
free cash flow, as its FY13 estimated EBITDA exceeds capex by StSbn. We
expect JLR's FYI4 EBITDA (ex capitalized R&D) to lag its capex by £0.6bn.
• European Exposure: During the LTM as of Sept. 2012, JLR's sales were split
between Europe at 22% (ex Russia and UK), UK 19%, NA 18%. China 19%, AP
5% and ROW 17%. We note that its 41% combined European exposure could hurt
results in the future. IHS is projecting total European production to be down Wo y/y
in IQI3 and down 3% for FY13 after declining 5% during FYI2. We expect JLR
to outpace overall EU volumes due to its luxury focus and new products, but note
that profits have been hit over the past two quarters due to mix (new lower priced
products selling more volumes but less profits than prior products). For example.
JLR's 3Q12 retail volumes were up 14%, but its EBITDA was down 17% and
caused its EBITDA per retail sale to plunge 27% y/y.

WideOpenWest (WOWFINFIN)
Overweight Buy WOWFINFIN 13 3/8s '19 @ $113.75, 9.95% ytm
Moody's: B2; Outlook, S
S&P: B; Outlook, S Credit and Investment Highlights:
• Financial results for WideOpenWest have been generally in line with our
Cable/Satellite expectations. Unit adds have been slightly below our estimates, as we suspect
chum remains elevated in acquired Knology markets, but reported revenue and
Michael Pantie
(1-212) 270-6530 adjusted EBITDA growth has been in line (+4% to +5% y/y). We expect similar
Michaelpace(g)jumorgan.com results/trends in 1Q13 (+3% revenuc/EBITDA growth; slightly negative PSUs)
and for results to pick up momentum beginning in 2Q13 (timing of rate increases,
Maxx Kauffman progress on Knology integration, etc.). We continue to model full-year revenues,
(1-212) 270-6797 reported adjusted EBITDA, and capex of —51.25bn (+4%), —5452mn (+8%), and
Maxx.d.kautImanajpmorgan.com 5230mn, respectively.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC • Following the company's successful hank refinancing, we note WOW is now
FCF positive on a runrate basis (albeit slightly). WOWFIN recently refinanced
its $1.915bn TLB with a new $1.96bn facility (incremental for fees/revolver
paydown). We estimate this refinancing will save the company —530m in annual
interest expense. With this event behind the company, we think focus for
investors should shift to operational execution, which we expect to show more
meaningful progress in 2Q13 and beyond.
ANALYST'
• We expect leverage to improve during 2013. At year-end 2012, total net
FOCUS leverage was 7.0x, unsecured leverage was 6.3; while bank leverage was 4.6x.
We forecast these metrics to decline to 6.6x, 6.0x, and 4.4x at year-end 2013.
\ UST
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• We continue to view WOWFIN as our top total return idea within HY
cable/satellite. In our opinion, WOW bonds still offer double-digit return
profiles (big coupons), even after a few points of run-up since the beginning of
2013. This compares to our 4% to 6% return expectations for most other high-
yield cable/satellite bonds and a HY market trading just inside 6%. Although the
bonds have already hit our original price targets (January 28, 2013 initiation
report) we still think upside exists, particularly in the 13 3/8% subordinated notes.

Momentive Performance Materials (MOMENT)
Overweight Buy MOMENT 9.0% 2nd Lien Notes due 2021
Moody's: Gael; Outlook, S
Offered at $77.50 (13.81%); Target $94.66 (10.0%)
S&P: CCC; Outlook, N
Credit and Investment Highlights:
Chemicals • Momentive Performance Materials is a former subsidiary of General Electric that
Tarek Remit was purchased by Apollo Management and its affiliates via a leveraged buyout in
(1-212) 834-5468 December 2006. The company is the world's second largest producer of silicones
Tarek.x.hamid©jpmorgan.com and silicone derivatives and is a global leader in products derived from quartz and
specialty ceramics.
Jon J. Mann
(1-212) 834-7239 • On April 1st, Momentive reported in-line 4Q12 results. Segment EBITDA of $50
Jonathantinannapmorgan.com million was in line with our estimate of $51 million. Momentive results improved
sharply from a very disappointing 4Q12, driven by cost reduction initiatives and
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC volume increases in the silicones business, but still remain well below normalized
earnings levels. Momentive finished 4Q12 with $362 million of liquidity, up
sharply from 3Q12. The company also disclosed that it has entered into a new
$75 million cash flow facility to supplement the company's $270 million ABL
facility.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
ANALYS • The company began to comp positively on EBITDA in 4Q12 as the silicones
industry continues to grow into capacity. Leverage remains highly elevated;
FOCUS however, we do not believe anything is fundamentally broken in the Momentive
business model. Modest volume growth and fixed cost absorption are the focus
\ UST for 2013, and should help drive Silicones earnings higher sequentially through the
year. Price increases in silicones are likely a 2014 story at best. Additionally,
quartz results should improve through 2013 as semiconductor demand recovers.
In the interim, liquidity looks strong (PF 4Q12 liquidity north of $435 million),
and the company has no maturities until 2016.
• Longer term the sustainability of the capital structure remains a question.
However, the company has many potential options to address the capital
structure, including debt-for-equity swaps, refinancing of expensive first and 1.5
lien debt, asset sales, and potentially a merger with sister subsidiary Hexion.
Most importantly, we are very comfortable with enterprise valuations greater than
$2.5 billion, and that implies a very high recovery floor on the 9% Notes no
matter the capital structure machinations.

Chemicals • Tronox is the fifth largest global producer of both titanium dioxide and titanium
Tarek Hamicec feedstocks. Titanium dioxide has an unparalleled ability to impart the color white
(1-212) 834-6468 and is very difficult to substitute in painting and dying applications. The TiO2
Tarek.x.hamid©jpmorgan.com industry has all the hallmarks of a very profitable commodity, with growing
demand, low threat of substitution, and a high concentration of market share
Jon J. Mann among a few participants. However, with the exception of a few brief moments of
(1-212) 834-7239
Jonathantinannapmorgan.com success, the industry has generally disappointed.
• On February 2Ist Tronox reported disappointing 4Q12 results. Reported
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC EBITDA of $71 million compared with the pre-released EBITDA of $70 million.
Reported results matched the preliminary results provided earlier in the month,
but Pigments results were surprisingly negative. Tronox burned cash during the
quarter, driven by a large outflow from accounts payable. Management expects
pigment prices to decline further in IlQ13, consistent with other industry players.
Why This Pick Should Underperform:
ANALIIS • The profitability of the pigments and mineral sands industries are highly
FOCUS dependant on operating rates given their commoditized nature. Softening demand
from European and Asian construction markets, highly elevated inventories and
\ LIST lower per unit customer consumption has driven a significant decline in pigment
volumes and pricing since 2Q12. The recent collapse in pigment demand has also
significantly impacted the mineral sands industry, which is heavily dependant on
the pigments end-market. Mineral sand prices are down 10-30% across grades
YTD, despite significant reductions in production from industry leaders,
including Iluka.
• On recent calls, Tronox has noted that it is interested in pursuing strategic
opportunities and the stated priority use of the company's new term loan is
potential acquisitions. Separately Rockwood CEO Seifi Ghasemi has said that
Rockwood will "pursue every possible option" to divest the company's
Sachtleben pigments portfolio during 2013. Additionally, given Huntsman's
efforts to buy Tronox out of bankruptcy, media reports have focused on the
possibility Tronox would buy Huntsman's TiO2 assets instead. We believe the
acquisition of either of these assets would be a significant leveraging event for
Tronox, as we outlined in our recent initiation.
• Tronox B2/BB- rated bonds currently trade inside 7%, and we believe a
downgrade from S&P would likely push bonds wider. Current ratings at S&P
look very high given acquisition risk, the cyclicality of the industry, and it's
severely challenged current operating environment.

through out the year, paying down bank debt with excess cash flow of
approximately $70 million. We expect Secured Debt/EBITDA to continue to
improve by YEI 3, to 3.6 x from 4.2x
• Compelling Relative Value. Secured bonds offered at S105 and 7.6% YTW
look cheap relative other secured Low B/CCC rated distributors of steel products

Mohegan Gaming Authority (TRIBAL)
Overweight Buy TRIBAL 3rd liens due '12/16.
Moody's: Caal; Outlook, S
Offered at $98.750 (10.911%); Target: $101.00
S&P: B-; Outlook, S
Credit and Investment Highlights:
Gaming • Mohegan is the largest tribal casino operator in the U.S., with its flagship
Susan Berliner 4 property being Mohegan Sun in CT. while it also owns Mohegan Sun at Pocono
(1-212) 270-3085 Downs in PA (located on commercial land). Unlike most tribal credits, TRIBAL
susan.bediner@jomorge n.corn
is a public filer and has a database of customers in excess of 4 million.
Management has been focusing on diversifying its operations with a small
Richard DeGaetani
(1-212) 834-9524
investment made in A.C. (Resorts) and a management contract in place. TRIBAL
richard.j.clegeetandgijpmorgan.com is also vying for a license in Western MA and is pursuing a management
agreement with the Cowlitz tribe for a project in La Center. WA.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC • Management recently obtained third-party financing to construct a hotel at its PA
property which should help generate traffic and is also pursuing a new hotel in
CT. In '9/12, the authority implemented a 520mm cost savings program. and
management continues to look for additional cost saving opportunities.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• Attractive Relative Value. These bonds offer one of the highest yields in the
sector at 10.91%, which we believe is quite attractive given management's focus
FOCUS on deleveraging. In addition, potential upcoming positives include monetizing
non-core assets, refinancing its capital structure, and improving monthly gaming
numbers, while additional cost savings should bolster margins.
\ LIST
• Focused on Debt Reduction/Refinancing. We believe management is already
focused on refinancing its entire capital structure, as its Revolver & TL-A mature in
let '3/15, its 10.5% 3rd liens and 11% sub notes are currently callable at par, while its
TUB becomes callable on 3/6/14 and its 2nd liens become callable in 11/14.
Although the company is currently not generating free cash flow, we estimate that in
2015 it will generate just over S50 mm (which is when the relinquishment payments
cease) with FCF targeted at debt reduction. We also believe a non-core asset sale
could facilitate deleveraging, and we estimate its retail mall at the CT property could
generate roughly S 150mm of proceeds. We estimate roughly SI3mm of term loan
amortizations in 2013, and in 2/13, TRIBAL retired a 515.8mm bond maturity and
has a S21.2nun bond maturing in 8/14 which it expects to pay off with cash on hand.
• Collateral Available. Although TRIBAL is a Native American casino and thus
has a component of sovereign risk, its Pocono Downs facility is not located on
sovereign land and was recently appraised for 5482mm. In addition, collateral
includes a leasehold mortgage in non-gaming assets that produce an income
stream and could be used for a sale-leaseback or an outright sale. These include a
1,175-room hotel. 50-outlet retail mall. 10K seat arena, and convention/meeting
space. Of course any asset sale would need to comply with bank covenants as
well as bond covenants (meaning some debt pay down).

David Common, CFA '4 which represents over 70% of EBITDA today. It diversified into soft tissue
(1-212) 270-5260 biologics by buying LifeCell for $1.7 billion in 2008 (-12x EBITDA). FYI2
dayid.commoneljpenorgan.com revenues and EBITDA were $1.7 billion and $753 million. Kinetic Concepts has
two segments:
Jared Feeney, CFA
(1.212) 270-0699 o KCI — advanced wound therapies, over 90% of which is NPWT. For FY 12,
jared.a.feeneyQpnbargan.com MIS reported revenues of $1.3 billion.
o LifeCell — market leader in soft tissue matrices, with an estimated 60%
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC market share. For FY 12, LifeCell reported revenues of $434 million.
• Acquired in 2011 by Apex, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, and the
Public Sector Pension Investment Board for $6.3bn (—8.5x EBITDA).
• In November, KCI sold its TSS (bed business) to Getinge AB for about $250
million. This business had a run-rate EBITDA of approximately $25 million.
AINALYS' • In January, CMS announced the competitive bidding payment amounts for Round
FOCUS 2. NPWT will face a weighted price cut of about 41% beginning in July for this
Round. The annualized pricing impact is about S30 million.
\ LIST Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• In our view, the value of LifeCell, plus cash, about equals first lien debt.
let • We think KCI will deliver 2013 EBITDA of -$700mm vs. our mid-2012
expectation of $640mm. Revenue has been weaker than expected, but cost-
cutting has far outpaced.
• We don't think competitive bidding results will materially impact pricing on the
non-Medicare NPWT (-90% of NPWT revenues) business any time soon.
• LifeCell revenue growth should rebound a few percentage points, and modest
acquisitions may add to that in year ahead.
• Liquidity looks strong with $500mm in cash, and we expect FCF generation of
about S125mm this year, about 3% of total debt.
• We're not counting on "the device tax" being rescinded. But that has some
bipartisan support and could be a modest boost to EBITDA if enacted.
• The second liens are rated FOB. But they've never traded in line with that index
and now trade close to the CCC index, which has outperformed: The 10-1/2s are
offered only —75bps inside CCCs, vs. an average of 175bps in the last year.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC
• We believe these bonds are covered with inventory of $575.2mm and cash of
$219.1mm. This $794.3mm of collateral roughly covers the $577mm 1st lien
bonds and these $220mm 2nd lien bonds. We expect HOV's inventory position to
increase with the improvement in the overall market.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
ANALYST‘ • Strong Housing Fundamentals. We believe the housing recovery is here to stay
FOCUS and anticipate a very solid spring selling season due to significant pent-up
demand, low inventory, excellent affordability. and the improving job market.
Although the overall sector trades quite rich, this is one of the yieldier bonds in
LIST the sector, as well as one of the few secured bonds.
• Attractive YTC. We expect these bonds to be refinanced on the first call date
(11/15/15) at $106.844. With ow expectations for a continued housing recovery
over the next few years, we believe HOV could refinance these bonds at a
notably lower coupon, which could save HOV S6mm annually (assuming a 6.5%
coupon). Although this bond has tightened a lot, it still offers 70 bps of pickup
over the JPM HY Index and remains one of the cheapest bonds in the sector.
• Expected Improvement in Earnings vs. Some of its Peers. We estimate HOV
will generate EBITDA of $137.3mm in 2013 versus $58.3mm for BZH and
5146.2mm for KBH. We estimate HOV's net debt/EBITDA will end 2013 at
9.58x versus 20.4x BZH and 9.44x for KM.
• Other Potential Events. HOV could issue equity/converts (equity market cap is
S750mm versus $366mm for BZH), or HOV could look to clean up the $127mm
of front-end bonds by issuing a new unsecured bond with a longer maturity.
HOV could also once again expand its land banking arrangement with GSO.
• Technical Bid. HOV is the highest yielding issuer in a sector that has significant
positive operating momentum and few secured bonds. 11OV is trading about 240
bps behind BZH's 2nd lien bonds.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC • Sensitive to economic cycles. Manitowoc's crane business is highly sensitive to
the macro-economy. Manitowoc's foodservice equipment business diversifies
the company's exposure to the highly cyclical cranes business.
• Fourth quarter results were solid and in line with our expectations.
Manitowoc reported 4QI2 revenue of SI,130 million, increasing 9% yly, about in
line with our estimate of 51,162 million. Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was
ANALYS $117 million, improving 32% y/y, in line with our estimate of $120 million.
FOCUS Margins improved 190bps yly due to operating leverage in the crane business and
cost saving initiatives in the foodservice business. The company's food services
segment has grown over the last year and has consistently improved margins. We
\ LIST expect margins to continue to expand in both business segments.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• Over the next twelve months, we expect a meaningful decrease in leverage.
Our model shows the company de-levering to the mid-3s or lower by year-end
2013 with very little benefit from MTW's end markets improving. The company
has a stated goal of reducing debt by —$200 million in 2013.
• The credit remains one of our top risk-adjusts return ideas in Industrials.
While yields are below average relative to the overall high yield market, in the

flexibility to pursue unlimited below par non pro rata dutch tender offers for the
Term Loam B and the ability to use S200mm of cash to repurchase legacy notes

• On February 19th, 2013, Clear Channel reported its fourth quarter 2012 and full
year results. Total 4Q revenues of S1,696.3bn, up +2.6%. and EBITDA of
ANALYSt 5546.6mm. up +6.0%, slightly beat our estimates on the back of strength in both
FOCUS the radio and outdoor segments. Management highlighted pacing data for CCME
of -3% (Radio of +2%), Americas of +2%. and International of -1%.
\ LIST Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• While the top line in 2013 will likely be negative in the first half of the year,
related to Europe in Outdoor and Traffic and Network comps in Radio, we expect
1k. YoY expense declines will largely offset the revenue softness, resulting in flattish
EBITDA.
• As Clear Channel looks to address its 2016 bank debt stack (having just repaid
the TL A) via exchanges and extensions, we believe the LBO Notes, which also
mature in 2016, will shortly become the next tranche in focus. We believe an
exchange/extension of the LBO Notes would make it easier for the company to
tackle a larger portion of the 2016 secured stack.
• The —557.4mm AHYDO related par repayment due on August 1st of this year
represents approximately —7% of the issue, and will likely occur prior to any
exchange/attempt to address the LBO Notes. The payment effectively increases
the calculated return of the 11% Notes. Though volatile, the CCMO LBO Notes
offer Media investors well above average yields within our coverage universe.

S&P: BB-: Outlook, S
Credit and Investment Highlights:
• New Gold is a mid-size gold producer, headquartered in Canada. The
Metals & Mining company has four operating mines in the US, Mexico, Australia and Canada.
Dave Katz, CFA' New Gold produced 412 koz of gold in 2012 with total cash costs of $421 per
(1-212) 270-4593 ounce. For 2013, the company forecasts gold production of 440 koz to 480 koz at
dave.adam.katz@pamorgan.corn
total cash costs of $265 to $285 per ounce.
Baying Bashtaeva • New Gold's New Afton project has outperformed. The Canadian mine met its
(1-212) 270-1372 targeted June 2012 production start and began commercial production in July
Bayine.bastitaevaajpmorgan.com 2012. In 4QI2, the mine operated at 11,700 tonnes per day, above its design
capacity of 11,000 tonnes per day, highlighting New Gold's successful tamp-up.
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC New Gold also has two development projects: the 30%-owned El Morro project
in Chile and the 100%-owned Blackwater in Canada.
• New Gold is a low cost gold producer, benefiting from significant by-
products credits. On a consolidated basis, we believe New Gold is at the border
of the first quartile and the second quartile of the industry cost curve.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
ANALYST • New Gold has lagged the tightening of the overall market. In our opinion, the
FOCUS credit should trade at least 50bps inside of the Split BB index, which implies 2.5
points of upside on relative value alone.
LIST • We believe gold is better positioned than prices indicate. As recent events
would suggest, geopolitical risk remains in the system. Prices remain low
compared to producers' all-in sustaining costs. The recent nonfarm payrolls report
111. indicates that the US economy remains weak. European GDP estimates have been
revised downward. We believe this environment will likely drag other
commodities down and that gold will outperform.
• We forecast an improvement in the company's credit metrics. Even when
using forward prices, we forecast that NGDCN's gross leverage will drop from
I.9x at 4Q12 to 1.7x by the end of IQ13. We expect the company's IQI3

Credit and Investment Highlights:
• Peabody Energy is the largest private-sector coal company, with thermal coal

The company serves coal customers in more than 25 countries on six continents.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC Indonesia. Mongolia and the U.S. In 2012. Peabody sold about 75% of its total
sales (by volume) to U.S. electricity generators, 23% to customers outside the
U.S. and 2% to the U.S. industrial sector.
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• A weak first quarter is expected. Consensus for 1Q13 EBITDA is $235 million,
down from $409 million in 4OI 2. The lower sequential result reflects higher
MIALYS costs during the conversion to owner-operator status at two Australian mines, as
FOCUS well as higher than normal overburden removal, lower realized metallurgical coal
pricing, lower U.S. sales and pricing and startup costs.
\ LIST • But the rest of the year should show quarter-on-quarter Improvement. The
conversion to owner-operator status should be completed in April 2013, lowering
costs at those mines. Stripping ratios are expected to drop through the year.
tki Finally, although we remain cautious on metallurgical coal prices, we believe
they will trend up sequentially. We estimate this will result in 36%. 24% and 10%
sequential quarterly EBITDA growth, in 2Q13, 3O13, and 4Q13, respectively.
• We believe the company is better positioned than its competitors. The
company's shill into PC1 coal through 201I's Macarthur acquisition has allowed
BTU to take advantage of steel producers' shift in coal blends. The company is a
relatively low cost producer in the PRB. Its PRB and Illinois Basin operations
should begin to see prices rise given greater year-over-year coal usage following
an increase in natural gas prices. Finally, in our opinion, the company's trading
operations and JV relationships provide it with the industry's best coal
knowledge, allowing it to stay ahead of market movements.

Moody's: 83; Outlook, N
Offered at $58.00 (33.17%); Target: $80.00 (20.00%)
S&P: B-; Outlook, S
Credit and Investment Highlights:
Paper & Packaging • Verso is currently the second largest manufacturer of coated groundwood in
Tarek Heraldic North America with —21% market share and the third largest manufacturer of
(1.212)834-5468 coated freesheet in North America with —12% market share. Verso was

purchased by Apollo Management in 2006 and subsequently taken public
through an IPO in May 2008.
Jon J. Mann
(1-212) 830-7239 • On March 7th. Verso reported 4Q12 results. Reported EBITDA of $41 million
Jonethenj.mann@jpmorgan.com compared to our estimate of $48 million and the consensus estimate of $44
million. Reported EBITDA results were OK at best, in our view, as strong
J.P. Morgan Securities LLC volume and price performance were offset by higher-than-expected costs.
However, insurance receipts boosted liquidity more than expected, and guidance
and market commentary were constructive. Verso finished 4Q12 with $204
million of liquidity, up from $132 million at 3Q12. Note also that the company
has announced a preliminary agreement for the sale of the remaining assets at
Sartell and reiterated its expectation of finishing 2013 with over $200 million of
liquidity.
MIALYS
Why This Pick Should Outperform:
FOCUS • Following the Holdco PIK exchange, Verso has no debt maturities before the
remaining stub subordinated notes mature in 2016. Additionally, the covenants in
\ LIST the company's new 11.75% 1.5 lien notes specifically prevent the company from
utilizing its restricted payment capacity except for refinancing the subordinated
notes.
rt.
• The Subordinated Notes offer a current yield of 19.6% with a clear maturity
runway and a solid liquidity profile. Verso finished 4Q12 with $204 million of
liquidity, and we expect the sale of the Sartell site and hydro assets will provide
an additional incremental boost to liquidity. We believe Verso will achieve
management's expectations of finishing 2013 with over $200 million of liquidity.
• Industry consolidation continues to seem inevitable over the longer term. Verso's
rejected offer to acquire NewPage valued the company's first liens at over $80.
NewPage's post-reorganization equity is now trading at the equivalent of below
$40. We think it is highly unlikely that the valuation disconnect is allowed to
persist and that some sort of industry consolidation will re-emerge in the near
term. Ultimately, no matter how consolidation unfolds, taking out capacity should
benefit pricing and margins long term and help this industry earn something
resembling its cost of capital.

• TOY was bought by Bain, KKR, and Vornado in 2005 for 8.6x EBITDA, it filed an
IPO registration in 2009, but withdrew that registration last month.
Why This Pick Should Outperform
ANALYSI" • We are Neutral on the TOY credit, as the next three quarters are relatively
FOCUS insignificant for the company and with no IPO on the horizon, there is modestly
greater dividend risk. It's 8.5% and 10.75% notes, however, are both secured at
SPV property companies, and both are callable this year. We believe the 8.5s offer
LIST attractive yield for short-dated secured paper. The first call date is December I,
2013 (at 104.25), stepping down annually to maturity. The yield to the first call is
near 5.5%, and increases with each subsequent call. We believe there are 2-3
points of upside for this to trade in line with other YTC bonds.
• TOY is focused on improving gross margins and continuing its side-by-side store
roll out, which should better lever its fixed cost structure in each store. This has
improved cash flow over the past several years and allowed TOY to use some of its
excess cash to begin paying down debt. It refinanced over $800 million of
European debt in the past three months with $565 million of new debt, using excess
cash to pay down the rest. We believe the company will do the same when it has the
ability to call its Propco I bonds (10.75% callable in July).
• While the market appears concerned about overall big-box toy retailing, we point
out that TOY has performed well online (growing this business to over $1 billion
today) and held its share in the market for toys. When we look at the composition
of holiday sales, the company grew its sales ofjuvenile products (+9.8%, which we
partly attribute to the side-by-side strategy) and learning toys (+1.2%). The
entertainment category remains weak, owing to product lifecycles (-10.5%). and it
decided to forego somc promotion on seasonal goods to preserve margin (seasonal -

• Positive fundamentals in both the car and equipment rental businesses. In
the car rental business, volume was positive y/y throughout 2012. Pricing in the
equipment renal business continues to be strong with volumes continuing to
increase y/y. As a result of these factors, Hertz's corporate EBITDA improved
18% yiy, and margins expanded 140bps in 2012.
ANALYST • De-levering credit story. Our model shows HTZ net leverage of 2.6x at year
end 2013 and ISx at year end 2014. Hertz's LTM PF net leverage is 3.3x.
FOCUS Why This Pick Should Outperform:
\ LIST • Margin expansion opportunity. The equipment rental business continues to
report strong EBITDA growth. In the fourth quarter, it generated revenue and
EBITDA growth for the eighth consecutive quarter and is still —30% below prior
peak EBITDA. The equipment rental business, about 25% of EBITDA, should
contribute to margin expansion in 2013.
• Investment grade prospects. While it will likely be several years (2014 or
2015) before Hertz's credit profile can support investment grade ratings. we think
a path to 1O should be visible by year end 2013. Over the next twelve months,
we expect crossover investors to increasingly look at this credit.
• Attractive on a relative value basis. We think Hertz credit profile today should
support BB valuation. We think bonds look cheap relative to the J.P. Morgan BB
index now at —4.4%.

• We believe CenturyLink is a better credit risk than peer companies such as
Windstream and Frontier. The company has lower leverage and greater scale than
either of those companies. and has diversified its business away from the
declining revenues associated with consumer voice telephony. We think
CenturyLink, with its predictable cash flows, could become the de facto
ANALYSI‘ benchmark 'BB' place to invest in high yield telecom.
FOCUS Why This Pick Should Outperform:
• We believe CenturyLink's predictable cash flow will make the company's bonds
a good place for portfolio managers to invest when seeking out bonds with a
N LIST relatively low beta. CenturyLink was recently downgraded to below-investment
grade status by all three rating agencies. The downgrades required that
CenturyLink bonds be removed from investment grade bond indices and into
high yield indices, which caused bonds to trade lower as investment grade index
managers adjusted their portfolios. That trade now seems to have run its course.
with the possible exception of CenturyLink long bonds, which still appear cheap
to us as their longer duration tends to be avoided by many high yield investors.
• For investors who can tolerate duration, we particularly like the long bonds of
2042, which offer yields of about 7.89%. If you worry about treasury moves, you
can hedge that bond and get a spread of +500bps, which we believe represents a
bargain.
