Tuesday, April 30, 8:42 AM Spansion (CODE): Q1 EPS of $0.03 beats by $0.01. Revenue of $189.6M misses by $5.54M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech]
Tuesday, April 30, 6:43 AM Spansion (CODE) says it will buy Fujitsu Limited's (FJTSY.PK) microcontroller and analog business for $175M including $65M for inventory. CODE says the purchase "aligns with [its] strategy to expand into system-on-chip solutions that require leadership in embedded Flash technology." The acquisition should be accretive to earnings this fiscal year. (PR) Comment! [Tech]
Wednesday, January 30, 12:45 PM Midday top 10 gainers: MERU +40%. CWBC +21%. BIOC +19%. MGAM +17%. FSL +17%. HTCH +17%. DLHC +17%. CPNO +14%. USAK +14%. IBCP +14%.
Midday top 10 Losers: VTUS -21%. KTCC -18%. MTOR -16%. HA -13%. ATTU -12%. CODE -12%. CEVA -12%. AUDC -11%. TRMD -10%. UPI -9%. 3 Comments [On the Move]
Tuesday, January 29, 4:29 PM Spansion (CODE): Q4 EPS of $0.34 misses by $0.02. Non-Gaap Revenue of $224M misses by $10.4M. Shares -7% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech, On the Move]
Tuesday, December 11, 2012, 4:42 PM Micron (MU +1.5%) is planning to lay off ~1/3 of its staff at its Israeli NOR flash memory manufacturing plant, the Calcalist reports. As Spansion (CODE) investors can vouch, NOR flash demand has slumped due to weak consumer electronics sales and the adoption of NAND flash for mobile device storage. Comment! [Tech]
Thursday, October 25, 2012, 4:33 PM Spansion (CODE): Q3 EPS of $0.36 beats by $0.06. Revenue of $239.7M (-7.4% Y/Y) in-line. Shares -2.7% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech, On the Move]
Tuesday, July 31, 2012, 6:55 PM Spansion (CODE): Q2 EPS of $0.22 beats by $0.05. Revenue of $233.4M (-21.9% Y/Y) beats by $5.M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Tech]
Tuesday, June 19, 2012, 6:24 PM Spansion (CODE +4.8%), which has been having a hard time as mobile device makers stop buying its NOR flash memory chips in favor of relying on NAND flash, is introducing an acoustic co-processor chip for automotive, gaming, and consumer electronics hardware. The chip, which relies on Nuance's (NUAN +4%) voice recognition tech, is meant to improve voice input response times and accuracy. Comment! [Tech]
Wednesday, April 11, 2012, 2:35 PM After a strong rise in semiconductors so far this year, Needham suggests staying the course with secular chip stocks - CODE, OVTI, SIMG and SIMO are named as meeting or beating near-term expectations - rather than switching to cyclical shares which already have priced in much of the benefit they may see from inventory restocking. Comment! [Tech]
Monday, April 2, 2012, 5:32 PM Spansion (CODE) announces an alliance with Hynix Semiconductor (HXSCF.PK) to sell NAND flash memory chips for more specialized applications in products like cars, videogame systems and TVs. CODE has been getting nearly all its revenue from NOR flash technology, which gradually has been overshadowed by sales of NAND chips for mobile devices. Comment! [Tech]
Friday, January 27, 2012, 4:26 PM Spansion (CODE +4.6%), already hit hard by the weakness seen in the NOR flash memory market, rallied today after reporting Q4 revenue of $220M (-33% Y/Y) and EPS of -$0.12; the latter missed by a penny, but the former beat by $5.3M. Spansion is guiding for Q1 revenue of $210M-$230M and EPS of $0.01 to $0.07, which compares with Street estimates of $221.8M and -$0.01. (transcript) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Tuesday, January 3, 2012, 11:44 AM Though most analysts seem inclined to look past the bad news in weak chip sales, Barclays now expects semiconductor revenue growth to come in flat to 4% in 2012, worse than its prior view for a 2%-5% rise. The firm lowers its ratings on INTC +0.8%, AMAT +0.9%, FSL +1.9%, MCHP -1.6% and CODE +0.8% to Equal Weight from Overweight. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Monday, November 28, 2011, 10:55 AM Tessera (TSRA +4.2%) trades higher after the U.S. Supreme Court rejects requests to review an earlier ITC ruling that found its patents were valid, and several competing firms had infringed upon them. The U.S. Court of Appeals had affirmed the ITC's decision last December, and the defendant companies asked the Supreme Court to review the case. The court rejected their appeals without comment. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Thursday, November 3, 2011, 3:28 PM Struggling NOR flash memory vendor Spansion (CODE +1.1%), crushed last week by a bad Q3 report and uglier Q4 guidance, says it will cut about 20% of its workforce, primarily through the closure of a Malaysian chip-packaging facility. The company says it will record a charge of $30M-$56M related to the restructuring. Comment! [Tech]
Friday, October 28, 2011, 10:28 AM Spansion (CODE -25.7%) crashes after reporting Q3 revenue of $258.2M (-16% Y/Y) and EPS of $0.48, missing consensus by $2.6M and $0.08. Moreover, Spansion, which operates in the slow-growing NOR flash memory market, expects Q4 sales of $205M-$225M and EPS of -$0.17 to -$0.07, far below a consensus of $264.3M and $0.40. Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Friday, October 21, 2011, 12:11 PM Altera (ALTR +12.1%) surges after investors decide its weak earnings and guidance are more about inventory issues than customer demand, and is bringing rivals Xilinx (XLNX +2.8%), Lattice (LSCC +5%), and QuickLogic (QUIK +3.7%) along for the ride. Meanwhile, Sandisk's (SNDK +7.8%) results are lifting flash memory firms Micron (MU +3%) and Spansion (CODE +3.3%). Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
