TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

We reiterate PHI, the Philippine's largest telecommunications company as a TOP PICK.  Although debt is growing, free cash flow exceeds 280 million (including payout of a robust dividend).  It trades at 8x earnings, 2.2x book, and supports a 28% ROE.  We recommend trailing up the stop (from $18) to $19, looking to achieve $26 -- upside potential of 18%.  Yield 5.5%

(Analysts’ price target is $31.10)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly

PHI is the largest telecommunications company in the Philippines.  It has completed 97% of the capital intensive project converting legacy to fiber optic systems for the residential customer and has completed a US-Transpacific sub-sea fiber network.  All this while growing cash reserves, retiring debt, and supporting a robust dividend under 50% of cash flow.  We recommend setting a stop-loss at $18, looking to achieve $30 -- upside potential of 30%.  Yield 5.6% 

(Analysts’ price target is $29.82)
