Me will avoid this stock. Intel is pushing for ultra book to replace traditional Laptop. If they are successful, within 1 years, 50% of hard disk demand will be replaced by DRAM. Unless they can migrate their business out of hard disk, else don't think their share price will perform even it is trading at cheap valuation.
Broadway, based on past record, can be expected to declare 1-c final dividend (when it announces its full year results). The 1-c is after adjusting for last year's bonus issue of 1 bonus share for 1 share. So the dividend yield is about 3.3% -- so-so only but a consolation if you want to buy and hold for its profits to normalise (after a disastrous 4Q becos of the flood).
Mr Zen, u kow cimb today not happy with broadway -- so how?
52 week low alert! - Broadway International's share price just hit its 52 week low of S$0.255 last Friday (Bloomberg). The flood in Thailand is in the price and one might be thinking if now is a good time to pick up some shares in this Company. Although the worst may be over, it could take a few quarters before Broadway can start posting better earnings and earn a re-rating. Could it be a case of dead money for 1H12, at least if you initiate a position now?
We have an Underperfom, TP S$0.26 on Broadway. If you still have no idea how bad earnings will be SGX-listed HDD component suppliers, just have a glance at Cheung Woh and Miyoshi's results. If you must buy into the HDD supply chain, you could consider JCY International (Outperform, TP RM 1.54) where we expect positive earnings surprise to continue for the next few quarters.
