| DON'T BUY | 1.400 | Werner Muehelemann | Have a technology that is essentially fibre to the home. Seems to be better technology at lower cost. Still at the product testing part, so sales as yet. Could have good sales if it works and it becomes a leader. Investors became too bullish and that's why the stock has run up. | 2008-05-28 | |
| DON'T BUY | 1.400 | Alex Lane | Able to integrate a lot of optical components onto one chip solution at very low cost. Acquiring Wave7 Optics, which potentially puts them in competition with their customers. Not sure this is going to be a successful move. Trading at 64X 09 earnings, so it is not cheap. Speculative. Below $1 would be an interesting entry point. | 2008-04-23 | |
| Comment | 1.650 | Hugh Cleland, CFA | Have a product that would take fibre to the home. Has a high regard for the management team for what they have achieved and where they are going. It was always 2 steps ahead of where he could get his head around valuation. Leading edge technology. A “waiting on blue skies” story. | 2008-04-02 | |
| Comment | 2.900 | Hugh Cleland, CFA | Fibre to the home with a chip-based solution, which is far more cost effective than any of the competitors. Likes the company, but it was always a valuation issue with him. You really had to look out 4 or 5 years. | 2008-03-04 | |
| WATCH | 2.930 | Howard Sutton | Deals with fibre to the home for broader bandwidth. Issue has been cost. Have a chipset that from the fibre to the home can dramatically reduce the cost. Very early in the stages of revenue. The big run-up has been on the expectation of them landing contracts. He prefers to see more revenue and cash flow so he missed this one. | 2008-02-27 | |
| Comment | 2.510 | Howard Sutton | Chip to bring broadband into the home through fibre. The issue has always been the cost of bringing fibre to the home. Their chipset is a piece of the puzzle but is dramatically dropping the price of providing services. Doesn't have revenue yet. There is huge expectation on delivery but you are getting into risk of execution. | 2008-02-13 | |
| DON'T BUY | 0.460 | Robert McWhirter | Their technology is the last piece of fibre to the home. Just announced a manufacturing agreement, in order to get high-volume production. It will be 2009 before profitability occurs. Very interesting technology, but it will be March-June/07 before they start up to sign large contracts. | 2006-10-25 | |
| WAIT | 0.550 | Robert McWhirter | Involved in fibre-optics to the home. Interesting new technology. Would not buy until it is closer to the time when their first chips start coming out in ’07 and then wait to see if they can ramp up volume production. | 2006-08-15 | |
