In the report, the analyst notes:

"On September 11, Barclays analyst Brian Johnson upped AXL shares to 'Overweight' from 'Equal Weight.' According to the analyst's report, the Company's debt deal with its lenders and GM's cash infusion have helped ease concerns over the Company's liquidity. Johnson also wrote that AXL is poised to benefit from resurgence in demand for full-size pickups, for which it produces components. AXL's price target was also raised to $13 from $8.

"In its recent regulatory filing, AXL announced it has been granted a waiver extension on its revolving-credit facility for time, which expired Thursday, September 17. According to the Company, the previous waiver expired as 'it continues to work with key stakeholders on various commercial agreements and financing arrangements that would result in a comprehensive long-term solution outside of bankruptcy.' Through these waivers, AXL is given time to renegotiate its loans and avoid a bankruptcy filing."
