5:17am 03/18/02 CQP seen vulnerable on no deal vote: UBS (HWP, CPQ) By Emily Church Shares of Compaq Computer (CPQ) are likely vulernable if shareholders on Tuesday reject the Hewlett-Packard (HWP) take-over deal, UBS Warburg says. Downside risk to Compaq shares is that it could sell for 30-40 percent of revenue, equal to $5-6/a share, analyst Don Young said. "A broken deal would most likely cause a serious loss of confidence by customers, the potential for accelerated defections from the proprietary server base, and we believe the need for major restructuring charges to address problems in the CPQ PC business," he said.
