Moffett Research LLC is now MoffettNathanson LLC

NEW YORK, Sept. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With the addition today of leading Media analyst Michael Nathanson, independent research firm Moffett Research LLC has been renamed MoffettNathanson LLC.  The firm's new web address is www.moffettnathanson.com. 

MoffettNathanson LLC is an independent research boutique that brings together two analysts who have been at the top of their respective sectors for most of the past decade.  Together, they bring almost fifty years of experience in Media and Telecommunications.

Craig Moffett has repeatedly been named both the top Telecommunications analyst and the top Cable & Satellite analyst in the U.S.  He was named the #1 U.S. Telecommunications analyst in Bloomberg's 2012 equity research poll and has been ranked the #1 U.S. Cable & Satellite analyst for each of the past seven years in Institutional Investor Magazine's All-America Research Team poll.  He has also been ranked among the top three Telecommunications analysts in the U.S. by Institutional Investor Magazine in each of the past three years, holding the #1 spot in 2011. 

Michael Nathanson has consistently been named the top Media analyst in the U.S.   He was ranked the #1 Media analyst in America in 2012 by Institutional Investor Magazine, marking the sixth time in the past seven years he has earned that honor.  He has also received Institutional Investor's top rankings in the now defunct Publishing & Advertising Agencies and the Broadcast & Radio sectors in past years.

Mr. Moffett and Mr. Nathanson worked closely together for eight years at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., LLC, regularly collaborating on research that spanned the Media Content and Distribution value chain. Their joint research included seminal reports on video over the Internet, programming cost inflation, and retransmission consent.  By reuniting at the new MoffettNathanson, the two bring a unique perspective not just to their individual sectors but to the intersections between them.  "Now more than ever, what our clients really need and want is insight into the whole value chain, and the way the pieces of the puzzle fit together," said Nathanson.

MoffettNathanson is a partnership of six seasoned investment professionals – Moffett, Nathanson, Patrick O'Connell, Ethan Steinberg, John Towers, and David Cielusniak – each of whom brings more than a decade of investment advisory experience.  Five of the partners – Moffett, Nathanson, O'Connell, Steinberg, and Towers – were previously colleagues at Bernstein. They are joined by Cielusniak, formerly of Conquest Capital Group, who serves as the firm's Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel, and Chief Compliance Officer.
