COMMENT
Manufactures television station equipment for conversion to HDTV. Industry can have some great growth. This one is a tough call. Had a bad quarter. Seems to be lumpiness to the orders. If you like the sector, he would suggest you own a couple, such as this one and Evertz Technology (ET-T).
DON'T BUY
Cheap but relative to its main competitors it has not performed nearly as well and their respective IPOs. A lot of volatility in earnings. Low advertising has also affected them.
TOP PICK
Involved in high definition TV. A turnaround situation. Had a long fall through 2007 and 2008 and didn't do much through 2009 and 2010. Started to come to life again making big deals with major growth. Peaked at $10 and pulled back to the $8 level. He just started buying and only has a small position. Use an $8 stop loss.
TOP PICK
Big benefit with the Olympics and the US election. Very strong 13% free cash flow yield. Potential acquisition. Dirt cheap.
COMMENT
He is shaving back on his holdings because of the smaller cap exposure. Has been subject to takeover rumours and management is talking to potential acquirers. Reported earnings on May 11 with a 15% negative earnings surprise. Analysts have reduced their estimates by about 6% in the last 90 days. Ranks well in his database.
