Seeing OmniVision as a Hold OVTI
-63.77%
in 176 days
Although its shares have traded down over the last two months, we are reiterating our Hold rating in view of uncertainties in consumer spending.

Slowdown Evident in Top-Line Guidance, Reiterate Hold OVTI
-69.22%
in 258 days
2/29 - "OmniVision reported upside to estimates last night, but guided under consensus in Q1, reflecting what we believe is weaker-than-seasonal demand for handsets in China. However, mix benefit derived from shipping less low-end China product is mitigating EPS impact and keeping us at a HOLD rating for OVTI shares...Management guided Q4/F2008 revenues in the range of $170-190 million and non-GAAP EPS between $0.27 and $0.40. First Call estimates for FQ4 were $193.6 million and $0.32, while we had $210 million and $0.38." "We are lowering our estimates...Revenue: Q1/C2008E (Apr) from $21...

2/29 - "In the just-reported quarter, OmniVision's management thought they were stealing market share from the other guys, and with new products on the way, that's a trend they'd like to continue...Net income was $0.40 per diluted share on $225 million in sales. Those numbers skim the low end of management's revenue guidance, but skipped over the top of the official earnings forecast." "More importantly, after many delays, the company's much-vaunted TrueFocus technology will soon hit the streets. Cameras built around those chips will be able to auto-focus instantly and with unlimited depth...

3/18 - "In a tougher handset market, I’d also expect a tougher pricing environment for OmniVision and its peers...Still, I like the recent trend in OmniVision and the potential for expanded interest among value investors in coming months. With appropriate protection (such as tight trading stops), it might be worth taking a risk in the name." "Alternatively, the April $17.50 puts are $0.80 as I write this. Writing the puts would offer either a 4.5% five-week yield on the money risked, or a more attractive entry point of $16.70 should the options be exercised."

Omnivision outlook continues to improve... Graphic_rating_buy OVTI

OmniVision is an OEM of CMOS image sensors and support circuitry used within handsets and applications in other mass markets. Second quarter results exceeded consensus estimates on both the top and bottom lines. Forward guidance is for a -5%
to 3% revenue growth in the third quarter. The softer guidance is based on typical seasonality. We believe the outlook continues to improve, and expect continued strength in the emerging products category in 2008. The share price has dropped off
significantly over the last few days, opening up an opportunity to accumulate shares. Consequently, we ...

Underwhelmed by Overstock, Continued OVTI

Overstock (ostk) says it's "celerbrating" the decision by a California appeals court to let its suit against Gradient Analytics and Rocker Partners to go to full trial. Among other things, the suit alleges libel.

Never mind that Gradient says it may appeal to the California Supreme Court in a case that could otherwise have chilling effects on freedom of speech: A scan through the court documents shows that much of the case is tied to the testimony of none other than Dimetrios Anifantis. Yes, that's the same Dimetrios Anifantis whose declaration -- "under the penalty of
