Finisar drops on pre-earnings downgrade; peers also off
Sep 2 2014, 13:45 ET | About: Finisar Corporation (FNSR) | By: Eric Jhonsa, SA News Editor

Ahead of Thursday's FQ1 report, Jefferies' James Kisner has downgraded Finisar ( FNSR -6.2%) to Hold, and cut his target by $6 to $19.

Kisner cites weak pricing for both datacom and telecom optical components, weaker-than-expected 100G datacom share, a Chinese inventory correction, Cisco/Huawei vertical integration risk ( previous), and looming price pressure/share loss to startups and possibly Intel.

Fellow component vendors JDS Uniphase ( JDSU -2.2%), Oclaro ( OCLR -1.7%), and Alliance Fiber ( AFOP -2.3%) are also off, as is equipment vendor Ciena ( CIEN-2.1%).

JDS and Alliance were among the names that followed Finisar lower last Wednesday, following cautious notes from MKM and RBC.

Jefferies raised alarm bells about AT&T's wireline capex in June, before Juniper and JDS offered soft guidance blamed on light North American capex.

A lot has been priced in: Finisar now only trades for 9x FY16E (ends April '16) EPS exc. net cash.
