Winning Stocks on a Down Week (ADY, BCRX, DDRX, DGI, FAZ, LORL, RHT, WX)

This was a week of profit taking and a probable realization that a move of 30% and more from the lows in March was probably a bit much in the face of only consistent “less-bad” economic data.  But as every optimist says, “There is always a bull market somewhere.”  We saw a drop of  about -3.6% to 8,268.64, while the S&P 500 Index slid by -4.% to 882.88.  The NASDAQ was the ‘better’ of the losers with a drop of -3.4% to 1,680.14.  But there are many standout stocks, and some of the key big movers and winners this week were American Dairy Inc. (NYSE: ADY), Biocryst Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: BCRX), Diedrich Coffee Inc. (NASDAQ: DDRX), DigitalGlobe, Inc. (NYSE: DGI), Direxion Daily Financial Bear 3X Shares (NYSE: FAZ), Loral Space & Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: LORL), Red Hat Inc. (NYSE: RHT) and WuXi PharmaTech Inc. (NYSE: WX).

Believe it or not, some of these are up exponentially off of the lows.  One is up 30-fold from the end of March, and amazingly the best winners were not in tech or biotech.  We have provided a weekly synopsis and the reason for their from the lows.

Cisco’s Unified Computing: Many Risks, Questionable Rewards (CSCO, VMW, EMC, BMC, MSFT, RHT, ACN)

cisco-logoCisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) came out with its big technology platform announcement, as prior reports had hinted at.  This includes announcements for services and products involving Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), Red Hat Inc. (NYSE: RHT), VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW)and EMC Corp. (NYSE: EMC), BMC Software Inc. (NYSE: BMC), and Accenture Ltd. (NYSE: ACN).  While this sounds complex, it is not really that complex.  But there are some risks.  This could cloud the waters at Cisco in determining if it wants to use the business model of an arms dealer or a mercenary.  It may also open the company to risks in new businesses which it has been able to avoid to date.

Will India’s $10 Laptop Kill PC Business? (DELL, HPQ, AAPL, MSFT, RHT)

Burning_money_pic_4 The massive power in the newest of low-cost PC’s is killing the computer companies  PC’s are becoming about the same as refrigerators and toasters.  And now the $10 laptop is on the verge of  being launched in India.  We have read about this for well about two years, and it almost seems too good to be true…. 

Should companies such as Dell (NASDAQ: DELL) and Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) be shivering?  What about Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) where one cheap version of Windows or a student version of MS Office costs multiples of this?  What about the premium computers sold by Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL).

Mini Tech Earnings Season Next Week (ORCL, RHT, RIMM, MU, PALM)

Next Wednesday we will have what almost feels like a tech earnings season, although it’s really just the end of the road before the earnings flurry picks up in mid to late July.  We have Oracle Corp. (NASDAQ:ORCL), Red Hat Inc. (NYSE: RHT), and Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) all reporting earnings.  To make matters even more interesting, we have Palm Inc. (NASDAQ: PALM) and Micron Tech (NYSE: MU) reporting earning on Thursday.  We have included estimates out of First Call and average analyst targets for each, but keep in mind that these estimates will change slightly after the weekend.

Oracle Corp. (NASDAQ:ORCL) is going to to be the most important for determining th strength of enterprise business operations for tech.  The enterprise software giant is expected to post $0.44 EPS on $6.86 Billion in revenues in its year-end report for Fiscal May 2008.  For the year ahead, its May-2009 estimates are expected to be $1.50 EPS on $25.67 Billion in estimates.  Average analyst targets are roughly $25.00.

We will also get earnings out of Linux software maker Red Hat Inc. (NYSE: RHT) with First Call estimates of $0.18 EPS on just over $153 million in revenues.  The next quarter after this for August will also maek its fiscal year end and estimates are $0.19 EPS on $163.36 million in revenues.  As far as average analyst targets, this one is very close with targets being around $23.00 to $24.00.

The entire cell phone and electronic gadget market is going to brace for Research In Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) earnings on Wednesday.  The company is expected to to post $0.85 EPS on $2.27 Billion in revenues.  For the next quarter estimates are $0.90 EPS on $2.43 Billion in revenues, and the estimates for Fiscal Feb-2009 are $3.88 EPS on $10.35 Billion in revenues.  Analysts have an average of target range of between $160.00 and $165.00, although some newer and raised targets have recently taken this one over $200.00 for a year out.

To make matters even more interesting, we have Palm Inc. (NASDAQ: PALM) and Micron Tech (NYSE: MU) reporting earning on Thursday. 

With today being options expiration date we are not including any options expectations to the stocks.  We’ll also follow up ahead of earnings with more detailed analysis on what the charts and other key metric expectations are for each company.  It may be a slow summer, but not every day.

Oracle Joins the VMware Fight, Sort Of (VMW, ORCL, RHT, QSFT)

Oracle Corp (NASDAQ:ORCL) made its "virtualization push" public yesterday at its Oracle OpenWorld, which is seeing some mixed reaction on the day after.  The enterprise software giant has not had a public or formal answer to VMWare Inc.’s (NYSE:VMW) virtualization lead.  Oracle’s product is three times more efficient than competitors’ offerings, at least according to the company itself.  The pricing also looks different.  Customers can download "Oracle VM" for free, and the enterprise software giant will sell service contracts ranging from $499 to $999 per year.

VMware shares were hit another 8% yesterday, while Oracle shares rose almost 3%. Apparently Jefferies believes the sell-off in VMware was too much.  Thomas Weisel noted that Oracle VM roughly compares to Red Hat (NYSE:RHT) Enterprise Linux 5.0.

Just this morning, VMware unveiled VMware Server 2, its (already) next generation of the company’s free-of-charge virtualization product, which enables organizations to quickly provision new server capacity by partitioning a physical server into multiple virtual machines.  VMware Server 2 beta for Linux and Windows hosts is available for immediate download, while VMware Server 2 is expected to be generally available next year. Enterprise-class support from VMware is expected to be available for VMware Server 2 at the time of general availability.

As more and more companies enter the virtualization space with announcements, whether the virtualization products are great or not, it is hard not to take heed of Virtual Iron’s CEO comments from our exclusive interviews over the last week: "Anyone can run multiple O/S’s on a server now, but that alone won’t cut it ahead."

Quest Software (NASDAQ:QSFT) made its own announcement yesterday with its acquisition of privately held Provision Networks Inc.

The VMware Conundrum still exists.  You can expect more ‘virtualization’ announcements today from various players.  There is the "Virtualization Conference & Expo West" from yesterday and today, and UBS is hosting its "Global Technology & Services Conferences" today through Thursday.

Redhat (RHT) Gets A Win For Linux

The advocates of open source keep saying that Linux will eventually start to do some real damage to Microsoft (MSFT) Windows. Well, the largest enterprise Linux company in the US, Redhat (RHT) showed that the dream is still alive.

Net income for the quarter ended August 31 rose 65 percent to $18.2 million, or 9 cents per share, from $11 million, or 5 cents, in the year-ago period. Revenue rose 28 percent to $127.3 million That is still tiny compared to Windows, but at least Linux is not dying.

On the bad news side of town, Redhat suffered another delay in the launch of the PC version of its product.

According to Reuters: "RHT Chief Executive Matthew Szulik said in an interview that the software maker is still working to translate the software into foreign languages, make sure it is compatible with different PC hardware and work out some issues relating to licensing of some of the software in the package."

You can’t win em all.

Red Hat Looking More Green & Blue (RHT, VMW)

Red Hat Inc. (NYSE:RHT) is starting to look more and more like a traditional software company each quarter.  The valuations are no longer like virtualization values, and virtualization is probably going to help Linux system sales directly for Red Hat.  Here are the key results:

  • Total revenue for the quarter was $127.3 million, an increase of 28% from the year ago quarter and 7% from the prior quarter. Subscription revenue was $109.2 million, up 29% year-over-year and 6% sequentially. Total revenue expectations from First Call were $117 million.
  • Net income for the quarter was $18.2 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared with $16.2 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the prior quarter and $11.0 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the year ago quarter.
  • Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the quarter was $36.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, after adjusting for stock compensation and tax expense as detailed in the tables below. This compares to non-GAAP adjusted net income of $33.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, in the prior quarter and $24.5 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the year ago period. Non-GAAP expectations from First Call were $0.17 EPS.
  • Guidance was issued for the quarter was $131 to $133 million in revenues, and non-GAAP EPS of $0.18; estimates are $0.18 EPS and $132.5 million revenues.

Red Hat released the beta version of the Red Hat Developer Studio, an integrated Eclipse-based set of open source development tools and runtime environment.  VMware’s (NYSE:VMW) rapid launch and faster investor absorption tied with cheaper RAM and multi-core processors are both lining up to be just what the doctor ordered for Red Hat and other Linux players in general (read about that on the Red Hat site on virtualization).

In addition, Red Hat today announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the continuation of the Company’s stock and debenture repurchase program. Under the program, the Company is authorized to repurchase in aggregate up to $250 million of the Company’s common stock and in aggregate up to $75 million of the Company’s 0.5% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2024.

If Red Hat just meets fiscal FEB-2008 EPS targets at $0.70 then even after the 4% jump in after-hours prices its forward P/E ratio on a non-GAAP basis is becoming more than easy to mentally absorb at 27.5.  The company does have more competition, but this new opening up of the desktops from virtualization in 2008 to 2009 and beyond may really open up the market for this company. 

The wildcard for this one tomorrow is going to be the Wall Street research calls with upgrades or downgrades.  These numbers on the surface have no WOW-factor to them, but the flip side is that these numbers are also starting to look more normalized.
