Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. reiterates eBay Inc. at 'sell'

The analyst wrote in a research report: "We like the BillMeNow story/concept and strategic fit, but not when there's a credit crisis, consumer spending decline and plenty of issues to address/fix in the core business. These concerns, along with a hefty price tag for a business with hefty capital requirements and earnings dilution, clearly suggest bad timing on eBay's part. Assuming a an optimistic 10% EBITDA margin for 2009, this puts the EBITDA multiple north of 63x 2009, much higher than the 8x 2009 multiple for Visa and MasterCard. Nonetheless, we think the asset is attractive, but the price paid is a bit high when it may have been a lot lower several months from now."
