- Tuesday, March 12, 12:49 PM Not too surprisingly, STMicroelectronics (STM -3.5%) and Ericsson (ERIC +1.8%) have failed to find a buyer for money and share-losing ST-Ericsson, six sources tell Bloomberg. Samsung and other prospective buyers reportedly failed to make bids after being approached. A wind-down of the JV is being considered among other options. Shares of both owners have spiked lower, but STM (a much smaller company) is getting the worst of it. (CEO change) Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Monday, March 11, 5:03 AM ST-Ericsson CEO Didier Lamouche will step down at the end of the month, having been in the job since late 2011. Lamouche's departure comes as STMicroelectronics (STM) plans its exit from the loss-making chip venture, while Ericsson (ERIC) mulls what to do with the company. (PR) Comment! [Tech]
- Thursday, March 7, 12:00 PM Alcatel-Lucent (ALU +4.9%) and Ericsson (ERIC +3.4%) have joined the rally seen in telecom equipment and optical component makers following Ciena's market-pleasing results and guidance. This morning, Ericsson, which has an early lead in 4G deployments, announced a 4G infrastructure deal with MetroPCS - merger partner T-Mobile USA (DTEGY.PK) reportedly plans to flip the switch on its LTE network later this month. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 5, 11:02 AM Debt-laden Telefonica (TEF +2%) obtains a $1B credit facility to buy infrastructure gear from Ericsson (ERIC +2.9%). The news follows recent deals to use Ericsson's equipment in 4G buildouts in the U.K., Brazil, and Chile. Compared with U.S. carriers, Telefonica has been taking its time to deploy 4G. Ericsson recently boasted of having a 50%+ 4G LTE volume share (likely to come down, but still impressive), and of scoring LTE deals with 9 of the world's 10 largest mobile carriers. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 27, 12:58 PM KPN has hired Alcatel-Lucent (ALU +2.6%) to manage its Dutch wireline network for the next 5 years. Alcatel will also migrate KPN's backbone network from legacy circuit-switched SDH tech to VoIP, and provide lightRadio Wi-Fi systems. News of the deal comes as Bloomberg observes Alcatel and Huawei are emphasizing managed services in an attempt to win deals at the expense of Ericsson and Nokia Siemens. Alcatel's services revenue grew 1.8% in 2012, while service provider hardware sales fell 8.6%. (Ericsson forecast) Comment! [Tech]
- Monday, February 11, 3:08 AM Ericsson (ERIC +0.45% in Stockholm)) wins a $1B eight-year contract from Reliance Communications to manage the Indian cellular operator's networks in the northern and western states of India. In January, Reliance awarded a similar deal to Alcatel-Lucent for its networks in east and south India. Comment! [Tech]
- Wednesday, February 6, 12:51 PM The average mobile user gobbled up 201MB of data/month in 2012, more than twice the 92MB/month consumed in 2011, according to this year's update to Cisco's (CSCO) Visual Networking Index. Cisco predicts mobile data traffic will post a 66% CAGR from 2012-2017, with 47% of 2017 traffic coming from Asia-Pac, 46% being offloaded onto Wi-Fi gear and femtocells, and 66% stemming from mobile video (YouTube dominates). Key mobile infrastructure players: ERIC, ALU, FFIV, ALLT, PKT, RKUS, DRWI, CRNT (last year: I, II) 2 Comments [Tech]
- Monday, February 4, 12:54 PM AT&T (T), Verizon (VZ), and other U.S. telcos are on edge over an FCC proposal to free up spectrum for public Wi-Fi networks that could significantly lower mobile data usage. Intel and Qualcomm want the spectrum to be licensed, and Cisco is raising interference concerns - all 3 have an interest in keeping carriers happy. However, Google and Microsoft support the proposal. With carrier data ARPUs surging and voice ARPUs declining, the stakes are high. If the project goes ahead, it could benefit telecom Wi-Fi hardware providers RKUS, ERIC, and ARUN. 5 Comments [Tech]
- Friday, February 1, 10:29 AM Ericsson (ERIC +4.6%) adds to yesterday's big post-earnings gains after Goldman upgrades shares to Conviction Buy, and Credit Suisse lifts them to Neutral. Management struck a positive tone during the Q4 call about demand for mobile infrastructure gear (fueled by mobile data growth) on both the radio and transport sides, and Ericsson's 4G LTE positioning. Rival Alcatel-Lucent (ALU +4.8%) is also faring well, aided by a rally in European equities. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
- Thursday, January 31, 10:32 AM Ericsson (ERIC +9.9%) has surged to new 52-week highs after trouncing Q4 estimates thanks to very strong North American demand (fueled by LTE buildouts from U.S. carriers). The mobile infrastructure leader also saw healthy Japanese demand and 19 new contracts for its Smart Services Routers, which handle both mobile and wireline traffic. China (declining 2G orders) and India (low investment activity) were relatively soft. Alcatel-Lucent (ALU +5.8%) is up in sympathy. (PR - .pdf) 2 Comments [Tech, On the Move, Earnings]
- Thursday, January 31, 9:48 AM Down AH yesterday following mixed Q4 results and light Q1 guidance, STMicroelectronics (STM +5.8%) is making new 52-week highs this morning. A 16% Y/Y increase in analog, MEMS, and microcontroller sales could be going over well. On the other hand, Digital (consumer electronics) and Wireless (dominated by ST-Ericsson) respectively fell 18% and 14%. Moreover, ST-Ericsson "anticipates a very significant sequential decrease in net sales" for Q1, and STM expects to spend $300M-$500M to exit the failed basbeband chip JV. Comment!

EBIT +17% to 4.8B krona vs consensus of 4.3B krona. Revenue +5% to 66.94B krona, boosted by 51% jump in North America. Gross margin rises to 31.1% from 30.2% vs forecasts of 30.8%.

- Friday, January 18, 2:50 PM STMicroelectronics (STM -1.5%) and Ericsson (ERIC +2.5%) head in opposite directions after the WSJ reports JPMorgan has been hired to explore options for the baseband chip JV - a French paper reported the same in October. STM has already said it wants to exit the 50/50 JV, which is struggling to compete with Qualcomm, MediaTek, and others, by the end of Q3. Ericsson recently said it will take a $1.22B charge on ST-Ericsson for Q4, while adding it doesn't intend to buy STM's stake. 4 Comments [Tech, M&A]
