- Friday, May 3, 11:42 AM Ericsson (ERIC +1.1%) has sold its power cable unit, which had 2012 sales of SEK1.5B ($231M), to Demark's NKT Cables for SEK250M ($38.5M). Also, the mobile infrastructure giant says it expects tough price competition in China as 4G buildouts get underway. China's 3 carriers plan to spend $56B this year on capex, and China Mobile (CHL - the world's biggest carrier) plans to increase capex by 49% to ~$31B. $6.75B of that will be used to set up 200K base stations for CHL's nascent 4G TD-LTE network - Alcatel-Lucent (ALU) should get a portion of it. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, April 8, 1:57 PM The price tag for Ericsson's (ERIC +1.1%) purchase of Microsoft's (MSFT -0.6%) Mediaroom IPTV unit is in between the $99M Ericsson paid for network management software firm Optimi and the $234M it paid for a majority stake in the LG Nortel JV, says a company exec. Analyst Alexander Peterc points out Mediaroom complements the video assets Ericsson acquired from Tandberg. Meanwhile, chairman Leaf Johansson is striking a positive tone about 2013 mobile infrastructure demand. "I am a little more optimistic on the U.S ... Perhaps Europe too has stabilized." Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Monday, April 8, 9:44 AM Microsoft (MSFT) unloads its Mediaroom IPTV infrastructure platform business to Ericsson (ERIC) for an undisclosed sum; Bloomberg reported about this deal a couple weeks ago. Ericsson claims the deal will give it a 25%+ share of the IPTV/multi-screen infrastructure market, and points out the global IPTV subscriber base is expected to grow to 105M in 2015 from 76M in 2013. In a blog post, Microsoft says it will now dedicate all its TV resources to the Xbox. The remarks come as The Verge reports the next-gen Xbox will be revealed at a May 21 event. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, April 3, 9:59 AM Though Cisco (CSCO) insists it has no intention of entering the traditional base station market (citing commoditization), its acquisition of small cell base station vendor Ubiquisys makes it more of a mobile infrastructure rival to Alcatel-Lucent (ALU) and Ericsson (ERIC) than ever. The combination of Ubiquisys' 3G/4G small cell solutions and Cisco's Wi-Fi hardware should eventually give it an end-to-end offering to take on market leader ALU's lightRadio line. Cisco is also pushing its new Quantum software suite (the result of the BroadHop/Cariden/Intucell deals) to mobile carriers. 2 Comments [Tech, M&A]
- 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]
- Wednesday, January 2, 2:21 PM Cisco (CSCO) is open to making additional wireless-focused acquisitions to "fill gaps" in its portfolio, says marketing exec Murali Nemani, but it has no interest in making a larger acquisition to compete head-on with the likes of Ericsson and Alcatel-Lucent in the traditional base station market. Nemani adds Cisco views the market as "a slow-growing, highly commoditized space." Instead, Cisco wants to focus on the budding small cell market, via integrated solutions that feature its Wi-Fi hardware, management software, and ASR 5000 routers. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, October 18, 2012, 12:33 PM Juniper (JNPR +4.3%) gives back the majority of its early gains as analysts prove skeptical that EMC would consider buying the company, as is suggested by a rumor. Cantor, UBS, Goldman, and Oppenheimer all consider an EMC-Juniper unlikely, though Oppenehimer thinks Ericsson or a P-E firm could be interested. Also, a source tells Reuters Juniper hasn't hired an i-bank to facilitate a purchase, contradicting the rumor. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, M&A]
- Friday, October 12, 2012, 9:39 AM STMicroelectronics (STM +8.2%) is thinking of breaking itself up, sources tell Bloomberg. The company's analog chip business could be split up from its digital chip business, which is heavily exposed to the soft TV and set-top box markets, and mobile baseband chip JV ST-Ericsson, reported this week to be exploring "strategic options," might be sold. Samsung, which has been increasing its mobile chip exposure, is named as a potential buyer for struggling ST-Ericsson. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, M&A]
- Tuesday, September 25, 2012, 4:20 PM Ericsson (ERIC) has acquired ConceptWave, a Canadian developer of OSS/BSS billing and provisioning software for telecom networks, for an undisclosed sum. The acquisition complements Ericsson's Telcordia unit, a top player in the OSS/BSS space, and boosts the company's exposure to a relatively healthy telecom software market at a time when mobile infrastructure sales remain tepid. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 2:45 PM Struggling and restructuring Nokia Siemens (NOK, SI) is in "advanced talks" to sell its Business Support Systems division, says Bloomberg. The division, which provides billing services to carriers, has reportedly drawn interest from Ericsson (ERIC), Amdocs (DOX), and P-E firms. Sources think it could fetch a sale price of €300M ($377M). Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 4:51 PM Calix (CALX) +3% AH after announcing it's buying Ericsson's (ERIC) fiber access equipment division and forming a reseller agreement with the company. Calix, which expects the deal to be accretive to EPS, claims Ericsson's division offers the industry's highest-capacity GPON fiber solution. Infonetics' Jeff Heynen notes the deal will allow Calix, currently focused on North America, to expand into emerging markets; his firm previously called Ericsson a top-3 GPON vendor. Comment! [Tech, On the Move, M&A]
- Tuesday, February 21, 2012, 10:50 AM Mobile infrastructure kingpin Ericsson (ERIC) is acquiring BelAir Networks, a leading maker of Wi-Fi networking gear for carriers. The acquisition comes in response to growing carrier interest in deploying Wi-Fi hotspots, with the goal of offloading soaring mobile data traffic from 3G/4G networks. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, October 18, 2011, 10:32 AM The $4.5B sale of Nortel's patents to six tech companies (AAPL, MSFT, RIMM, EMC, ERIC, and SNE) is still being reviewed by the DOJ, according to Microsoft's IP chief. Regulatory challenges to the deal could potentially have an impact on the bidding for InterDigital (IDCC) and/or Eastman Kodak's (EK) patents. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Thursday, October 6, 2011, 11:54 AM Sony (SNE +0.9%) puts smartphones at the center of its consumer strategy with talks to buy out Ericsson (ERIC +7.1%) from the companies' joint venture, WSJ says - at an amount estimated at $1.3B-$1.7B. The 50-50 partnership, formed in 2001, is the sixth-largest mobile phone maker. Comment! [Tech, M&A, On the Move]
- Friday, September 9, 2011, 4:10 PM Intel (INTC), Ericsson (ERIC), and HTC (HTCCF.PK) are the latest companies said to be weighing offers for 3G/4G patent holder InterDigital (IDCC -4.5%), while Google (GOOG) is viewed as losing interest now that it has MMI. Other names reported at some point to be considering offers include AAPL, QCOM, and NOK. Comment! [Tech, M&A]
- Tuesday, August 16, 2011, 4:19 AM Despite fears Google (GOOG) may show favoritism to Motorola (MMI), Android handset makers Samsung (SSNLF.PK), Sony Ericsson (SNE ERIC), HTC and LG Electronics endorse the acquisition. With Motorola's more than 17,000 patents, "Google is buying them protection" in IP disputes. 2 Comments [Tech, Consumer, M&A]
