Situation similaire a ATY "The unusual first quarter development is that two of our major customers, in the widely separate fields of networking and tape storage equipment, have unexpectedly and simultaneously reduced their volume requirements," says Raymond J. Farnham, Hi/fn Chairman and CEO. "The reductions are primarily due to inventory adjustments. The virtual private network (VPN) market, the primary end market served by our networking customers, is moving ahead with all major equipment networking manufacturers participating. However, as with any rapidly growing market segment, short-term adjustments at individual providers will occur."

"We are lowering our rating on Hi/fn from a Buy to a Long-Term Attractive, following the company's pre-announcement conference call yesterday after the market closed," said Veerappan. "The company pre-announced that fiscal-fourth-quarter 1999 results would come in above our revenue and earnings-per-share estimates of $14.0 million and $0.37, respectively, led by strong sales to its networking customers, of which Ascend comprises approximately 80 percent of revenues." "In addition, the company indicated that sales would likely decline and come in around the $10 million mark for the December quarter, led by inventory corrections at the company's two largest customers, Quantum and Ascend," said Veerappan. "While we had indicated that incremental strength in the December quarter would clearly slow down when compared to previous quarters, the company's current guidance does represent an even more substantial change."

Mon opinion... Un titre qui rapporte 0.18$ par trimestre et qui vaux 100$ mˆme si ‚ventuellement il pourrait rapporter 3-4$/an il est cher. Le P/E est haut! Je sais que tu fais des in/out et que c'est pas dangereux pour toi. Claude

HIFN n'est pas une cie Internet. Ils sont dans les semiconducteurs - Si on d‚gomme LUMM comme ca! Ouff! C'est seulement que Ascend et une autre cie a annonc‚ qu'ils n'achŠteraient pas autant dans le prochain trimestre que pr‚vu. Ca pourrait vouloir dire qu'on s'attend … ce que la croissance va ralentir du c“t‚ de t‚l‚com car ils servent ces derniŠres. Pour l'instant, je suis en stand by, l'action se promŠne entre 42.75 et 41 Le volume est rendu … 7M d'actions transig‚es. Armand
