Liberator, Inc. Announces Initiation of Coverage by Goldgaber Research

ATLANTA, Jan. 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Liberator, Inc. (OTCBB/OTCQB: LUVU), a dynamic high-growth and vertically integrated company capitalizing on the emerging sexual wellness revolution through the worldwide marketing of the Liberator® brand, today announced the release of an in-depth initiation report by fee-based, third-party research firm Goldgaber Research.

The report discusses Liberator, its proprietary products at the forefront of the sexual wellness revolution, and initiates coverage with a 12-month price target of $1.00 per share.

"Liberator is addressing the growing demand for sexual wellness products in the United States and around the world, through our growing sales initiatives and fantastic brand awareness," said Louis Friedman, President and CEO of Liberator, Inc. "This comprehensive report provides investors with an excellent overview of Liberator and our unique strengths: from our patented iconic Liberator products, our vertically integrated manufacturing process, and our significant potential for expansion based on our mission to grow both organically and through potential accretive acquisitions in 2012."

From the Goldgaber Research Report, Mr. Goldgaber states:

"Reflecting the progress the franchise has made in becoming a mainstream brand, Liberator has sold $60 million in products and spent nearly $9 million in print advertising including appearances in numerous mainstream publications.  Additionally, Liberator has been featured in both television programs and movies, including memorable scenes featured in two movies, Meet the Fockers and Burn After Reading, which had a combined gross of approximately $680 million globally."

The report details the significant growth projected in the sexual wellness market, which benefits from a major trend toward greater acceptance of mainstream sex-based products and services, a heightened focus on general health and well-being, as well as domestic and international mega-brands such as Trojan and K-Y that are expected to increase consumer spending and awareness in this multi-billion dollar industry.  Goldgaber Research also explains how Liberator is attempting to translate this growth into future results, even at what Goldgaber Research considers conservative growth projections.

"As Liberator expands its product distribution more broadly online and continues expanding its bricks and mortar presence by tailoring and packaging products appropriately for retail shelves, the company has an opportunity to create a brand and franchise as mainstream as Trojan and K-Y," explains Mr. Goldgaber. "Goldgaber Research is initiating coverage of LUVU with a target price of $1.00 based on an expectation of a price / revenue multiple expansion reflected in the valuation illustration presented later in the report."
