However, demand doesn’t appear to be an issue at the moment in China. Total sales of electric vehicles in China totaled 1.026 million units in November. Over the January to November period, total EV sales rose by 36.7% year-over-year to 8.3 million units. However, competition is mounting and this has resulted in considerable price wars","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Chinese luxury electric vehicle maker Nio stock delivered 18,012 vehicles for December, marking a 13.9% increase versus last year and a growth of 12.9% versus November. Nio likely benefited from higher sales of the updated ES6 SUV, which launched earlier in 2023, as well as a year-end sales promotion that included free battery swaps, accessories, and a subscription to its autonomous driving software. Overall Nio delivered 160,038 vehicles in 2023, marking an increase of 31% compared to the previous year. That said, the year-end figure was well below the company’s target of doubling 2023 sales year-over-year to about 245,000 cars. Nio’s growth rates also continue to fall behind rivals who posted even stronger monthly deliveries. For example, Li Auto delivered a record 50,353 units for the month, up almost 2.4x compared to last year. Xpeng delivered 20,115 vehicles for the month, marking an increase of 78% compared to the year-ago period.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">NIO stock has suffered a sharp decline of 85% from levels of $50 in early January 2021 to around $8 now, vs. an increase of about 25% for the S&P 500 over this roughly 3-year period. Notably, NIO stock has underperformed the broader market in each of the last three years. Returns for the stock were -35% in 2021, -69% in 2022, -7% in 2023, and -12% in 2024. In comparison, returns for the S&P 500 have been 27% in 2021, -19% in 2022, 24% in 2023, and -0.1% in 2024 - indicating that <strong>NIO underperformed the S&P</strong> in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. In fact, <strong>consistently beating the S&P 500</strong> - in good times and bad - has been difficult over recent years for individual stocks.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">In contrast, the Trefis High Quality Portfolio, with a collection of 30 stocks, has <strong>outperformed the S&P 500 each year</strong> over the same period. <strong>Why is that?</strong> As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.</p><p>Given the current uncertain macroeconomic environment with high oil prices and elevated interest rates, could NIO face a similar situation as it did in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 and <strong>underperform the S&P</strong> over the next 12 months - or will it see a recovery?</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">There are concerns about global EV demand, with most mainstream automakers, including Volkswagen, Mercedes, Ford, and GM indicating a softer-than-expected uptake. However, demand doesn’t appear to be an issue at the moment in China. Total sales of electric vehicles in China totaled 1.026 million units in November. Over the January to November period, total EV sales rose by 36.7% year-over-year to 8.3 million units. However, competition is mounting and this has resulted in considerable price wars.

Nio likely benefited from higher sales of the updated ES6 SUV, which launched earlier in 2023, as well as a year-end sales promotion that included free battery swaps, accessories, and a subscription to its autonomous driving software. Overall Nio delivered 160,038 vehicles in 2023, marking an increase of 31% compared to the previous year. That said, the year-end figure was well below the company’s target of doubling 2023 sales year-over-year to about 245,000 cars. Nio’s growth rates also continue to fall behind rivals who posted even stronger monthly deliveries. For example, Li Auto delivered a record 50,353 units for the month, up almost 2.4x compared to last year. Xpeng delivered 20,115 vehicles for the month, marking an increase of 78% compared to the year-ago period.NIO stock has suffered a sharp decline of 85% from levels of $50 in early January 2021 to around $8 now, vs. an increase of about 25% for the S&P 500 over this roughly 3-year period. Notably, NIO stock has underperformed the broader market in each of the last three years. Returns for the stock were -35% in 2021, -69% in 2022, -7% in 2023, and -12% in 2024. In comparison, returns for the S&P 500 have been 27% in 2021, -19% in 2022, 24% in 2023, and -0.1% in 2024 - indicating that NIO underperformed the S&P in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. In fact, consistently beating the S&P 500 - in good times and bad - has been difficult over recent years for individual stocks.In contrast, the Trefis High Quality Portfolio, with a collection of 30 stocks, has outperformed the S&P 500 each year over the same period. Why is that? As a group, HQ Portfolio stocks provided better returns with less risk versus the benchmark index; less of a roller-coaster ride as evident in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.Given the current uncertain macroeconomic environment with high oil prices and elevated interest rates, could NIO face a similar situation as it did in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 and underperform the S&P over the next 12 months - or will it see a recovery?There are concerns about global EV demand, with most mainstream automakers, including Volkswagen, Mercedes, Ford, and GM indicating a softer-than-expected uptake. However, demand doesn’t appear to be an issue at the moment in China. Total sales of electric vehicles in China totaled 1.026 million units in November. Over the January to November period, total EV sales rose by 36.7% year-over-year to 8.3 million units. However, competition is mounting and this has resulted in considerable price wars. Investors have been concerned about Nio’s price cuts, which impacted average selling prices and reduced gross margins in recent quarters. For example, Nio posted a gross margin of 8% in Q3, down from 13.3% in the year-ago period, compared to Li Auto which posted gross margins of 22%, up from 12.7% in Q3 of 2022.That being said, there are some positives as well.

Investing in China is already hard enough; investors don't need to add more difficulty by investing in upstarts in a highly competitive industry.While Nio may have a great product, the stock doesn't seem worth the risk.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":384,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":254014922162216,"gmtCreate":1703051999588,"gmtModify":1703052004298,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Share your opinion about this news…","listText":"Share your opinion about this news…","text":"Share your opinion about this news…","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/254014922162216","repostId":"1163836111","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1163836111","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1703048542,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1163836111?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-12-20 13:02","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Raises Rental Occupancy Cap to Meet High Demand","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1163836111","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"Singapore will allow more tenants to occupy a single property under a temporary two-year measure to meet higher rental demand in the financial hub.Starting next year, larger public and private residential properties will be allowed to house up to eight unrelated persons from the current cap of six, Minister for National Development Desmond Lee said in a Facebook post on Wednesday.Rents in the city-state have surged since the pandemic, largely due to strong demand amid Covid-19 construction delay","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Singapore will allow more tenants to occupy a single property under a temporary two-year measure to meet higher rental demand in the financial hub.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Starting next year, larger public and private residential properties will be allowed to house up to eight unrelated persons from the current cap of six, Minister for National Development Desmond Lee said in a Facebook post on Wednesday.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Rents in the city-state have surged since the pandemic, largely due to strong demand amid Covid-19 construction delays, Lee said.

The company recently completed its long-awaited takeover of VMware and also released a very solid Q4 earnings report. At pixel-time the stock was trading at $1060.24 a share, making it increasingly hard for many smaller ordinary investors to scale-into a full position in the stock by making occasional share purchases. As a result, it is quite likely that Broadcom will - in the near future - split the shares. My guess is that the company will declare a 20:1 split.</p><h2 id=\"id_4060706663\">Investment Thesis</h2><p>All things being equal (while acknowledging they seldom are ...), a stock-split in and of itself does not create shareholder value. After all, if I hand you a $5 bill and you give me five $1's back, I am none the richer. That said, one could argue that a stock-split does give an emotional and psychological lift to the shares. However, two relatively recent examples of 20:1 stock-splits in the technology sector show they are certainly no panacea:</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/833043cadee2a5ca4d11f75552f59e1f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"377\"/></p><p>Google 20:1 Stock Split (Yahoo Finance)</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/64b5a9f257871e5bac395896dfbdf6e4\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"379\"/></p><p>Amazon 20:1 Stock Split (Yahoo Finance)</p><p></p><p>As can be seen in the charts above (by the square "S" in the graphics near the volume bars on the bottom), both Google (GOOG) and Amazon (AMZN) split their stocks 20:1 in 2022. Note I predicted the AMZN split in this Seeking Alpha article, although I suggested a 10:1 split was more likely. That was based on the thesis that AMZN wanted to become a more attractive candidate to join the DJIA Index. That still has not happened, but it seems to be a given that some day it will. Amazon is another favorite tech holding of mine, and one could argue that its current valuation is based solely on its AWS cloud segment, which is - in my opinion - ignoring the immense potential of advertising in its retail operations. But that is a subject for another article down the road.</p><p>Meantime, note that both GOOG and AMZN stocks got a short-term boost after the splits before drastically selling-off in the 2022 tech-sector bear market as rapidly increasing interest rates and a strong dollar took a toll on the tech sector. However, today both stocks are significantly higher than they were at the time of the splits (in the end, fundamentals drive long-term stock value).</p><p>The old Broadcom split its stock three times between 1999 and 2006. However, since Avago bought Broadcom and adopted its name in 2015, the stock has not split even once. Propelled by a series of acquisitions that were excellently managed and integrated by CEO Hock Tan to unleash strong shareholder value, the stock has appreciated 300%+ over the last 5-years alone.</p><p>It's time for a split.</p><h3 id=\"id_584021930\">Impact of A Potential 20:1 Split</h3><p>According to its recent Q4 EPS report, Broadcom ended FY2024 with an average of 427 million fully diluted shares. Despite Broadcom's strong share buyback plan, that was actually <em>up</em> 4 million shares on a yoy basis, primarily because Broadcom was prevented from executing its full share buyback plan while the VMware deal was in-flux. However, from the Q4 conference call we learned:</p><blockquote><p>For fiscal 2023, we spent $15.3 billion, consisting of $7.6 billion in the form of cash dividends and $7.7 billion in share repurchases and eliminations. We ended the year with $7.2 billion of authorized share repurchase programs remaining. <em>With the VMware deal closed, we have resumed repurchasing shares under our existing program.</em></p></blockquote><p>The resumption of share repurchases may be one reason for the strong stock-price action since the close of the VMware deal on November 22:</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/eca7023c53adae530428b424feffe794\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"435\"/></p><p>Data by YCharts</p><p></p><p>The other reasons, of course, was the excellent Q4 earnings report combined with the FY2024 guidance - both of which I will get to in a minute. Meantime, a 20:1 stock split would equate to:</p><ul style=\"\"><li><p>An estimated 8.54 billion outstanding share count.</p></li><li><p>A stock price of $53.01.</p></li><li><p>An annual dividend of $1.05/share.</p></li><li><p>The yield, of course, would stay the same (2.00%).</p></li></ul><h3 id=\"id_1014079449\">Earnings</h3><p>Broadcom's Q4 revenue of $9.295 billion was only up 4% yoy and many investors and analysts appeared to be unimpressed. What they are missing is that Broadcom typically grows earnings and free-cash-flow faster than revenue, and this was once again the case in Q4:</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2ca836e96af2a5a1affae133e44c03a9\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"355\"/></p><p>Broadcom</p><p></p><p>As can be seen in the graphic, Q4 earnings of $8.25/share were up 5.4% yoy. More importantly to me<em>, Q4 free-cash-flow was $4.723 billion, which was up $262 million yoy, grew 5.9% yoy and was a whopping 50.8% of total revenue.</em></p><p>The result of such terrific operational and financial performance was another very generous boost in Broadcom's quarterly dividend: a 14% increase to $5.25/share ($21/share on an annual basis).</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/21448652990c38d146c63c7afcbe968f\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"312\"/></p><p>Broadcom</p><p></p><p>As you can see from the graphic above (taken from the December presentation, which I strongly encourage investors to review), Broadcom's ability to grow both organically and through M&A, and to deliver strong margins throughout the cycles, has enabled it to become one of the best dividend growth stocks in the entire S&P500 (if not <em>the</em> best).</p><h3 id=\"id_3106066254\">Going Forward</h3><p>Due to the sizeable impact of the VMware acquisition, Broadcom did not give its typically quarterly guidance, but issued full-year FY2024 guidance instead:</p><ul style=\"\"><li><p>Consolidated revenue is expected to be $50 billion (+40% yoy).</p></li><li><p>In total, the Infrastructure Software segment is expected to generate revenue of $20 billion (40% of total), with $12 billion coming from VMware That estimate is based on only 11 months of contribution from VMware and does not include ~$2 billion of revenue from VMware's EUC and <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/CBLK\">Carbon Black</a> units, which Broadcom plans to divest.</p></li><li><p>Silicon revenue is expected to grow from mid-to-high single digits, driven primarily by generative AI.</p></li></ul><p>Broadcom also plans to convert "an installed base of licenses that is over 60% perpetual today to one that will be mostly subscription by the end of fiscal 2024." While the conversion may well lead to short-term decline in what the software segment's revenue would otherwise be, it is expected that this strategy will actually accelerate VMware's revenue growth over the next three years.</p><p>Broadcom also expects to spend ~$1 billion to digest VMware during FY24. The company expects VMware's spending run-rate will exit FY24 at ~$1.4 billion per quarter. That would be down 40% yoy and is yet another example of how CEO Hock Tan has consistently figured out how to ring-out higher margins from his acquisitions.</p><p>I hope investors listened to the previously referenced Q4 conference call (CEO Hock Tan typically gives some of the most valuable commentary & analysis on the entire technology sector ...) and caught this gem, which is likely one of the primary rationalizations for the VMware acquisition:</p><blockquote><p>Well, as you may be aware, in the last VM Explore in Las Vegas, <em>VMware came out and announced in partnership with NVIDIA, the VMware Private AI Cloud Foundation.</em> Another way of describing it is, the VMware Cloud Foundation Software Stack, the whole VCF stack runs NVIDIA coder, runs the NVIDIA GPU. That is the partnership. So, if you’re an enterprise, it’s a very easy step to get into gen AI analytics because the data center that you as an enterprise own on-prem that runs VCF will by default run the NVIDIA GPU software stack as well.</p><p>Another way to put it, it virtualizes the NVIDIA GPU. That’s the VMware software stack as well. So it’s a very strong attraction in our -- from our perspective to, in fact, accelerate thinking of a lot of enterprise to adopting the whole VCF site. It’s simply because <em>not only does it virtualize the data centers and make your data on-prem data center much more resilient, easier to manage, lower cost to manage, it has the added benefit, a big attraction this is of being able to right away start running AI workloads.</em></p></blockquote><p>Sorry for the length of that quote, but it is important for investors to understand what is going on here. As I have been pointing out on Seeking Alpha for quite some time now, Nvidia's (NVDA) massive success in AI is not due solely to its GPUs designs (i.e. hardware), it's because Nvidia is also a leader in AI-related software as well. That being the case, VMware is going to make Nvidia's software even more valuable to its customers (and to Broadcom investors ...).</p><h2 id=\"id_3320893568\">Summary & Conclusion</h2><p>Broadcom's very high stock price rationalizes a 20:1 stock split. As pointed out in this article, stock splits in-and-of themselves do not create value. However, there are two benefits in my opinion: psychologically, investors like stock splits; a lower stock price would likely encourage many small investors to begin to accumulate shares.</p><p>Regardless, the big picture investment thesis in Broadcom remains terrific. While the term "rock star" is used way too often in the corporate world, Broadcom CEO Hock Tan's performance track record puts him at the top of the tech sector's list (just view the chart below). Going forward, I see no indication, whatsoever, that any change is imminent: Broadcom will continue to grow its revenue, earnings, and free-cash-flow at a strong clip, maintain and grow its already strong margins, and rewards shareholders with arguably the best dividend growth in the business along with significant shareholder buybacks.

As a result, a 20:1 stock-split is quite likely in the near future.Stock splits in-and-of themselves are no panacea. After all, if I give you a $5 bill and you hand me five $1's back, I am no better off.However, stock splits do have emotional value and also enable small investors to more easily scale-into full positions.In my opinion, Broadcom's strong Q4 earnings report, its excellent free-cash-flow profile, and the VMware acquisition make a stock split even more likely.Meantime, Broadcom continues to be one of the best dividend growth stocks in the entire S&P500 with a 14% increase in the quarterly dividend to $5.25/share, or $21 on an annual basis.Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO), long one of my favorite technology stocks, has been on a tremendous bull-run this year: +91.6% YTD. The company recently completed its long-awaited takeover of VMware and also released a very solid Q4 earnings report. At pixel-time the stock was trading at $1060.24 a share, making it increasingly hard for many smaller ordinary investors to scale-into a full position in the stock by making occasional share purchases. As a result, it is quite likely that Broadcom will - in the near future - split the shares. My guess is that the company will declare a 20:1 split.Investment ThesisAll things being equal (while acknowledging they seldom are ...), a stock-split in and of itself does not create shareholder value. After all, if I hand you a $5 bill and you give me five $1's back, I am none the richer. That said, one could argue that a stock-split does give an emotional and psychological lift to the shares. However, two relatively recent examples of 20:1 stock-splits in the technology sector show they are certainly no panacea:Google 20:1 Stock Split (Yahoo Finance)Amazon 20:1 Stock Split (Yahoo Finance)As can be seen in the charts above (by the square \"S\" in the graphics near the volume bars on the bottom), both Google (GOOG) and Amazon (AMZN) split their stocks 20:1 in 2022. Note I predicted the AMZN split in this Seeking Alpha article, although I suggested a 10:1 split was more likely. That was based on the thesis that AMZN wanted to become a more attractive candidate to join the DJIA Index. That still has not happened, but it seems to be a given that some day it will. Amazon is another favorite tech holding of mine, and one could argue that its current valuation is based solely on its AWS cloud segment, which is - in my opinion - ignoring the immense potential of advertising in its retail operations. But that is a subject for another article down the road.Meantime, note that both GOOG and AMZN stocks got a short-term boost after the splits before drastically selling-off in the 2022 tech-sector bear market as rapidly increasing interest rates and a strong dollar took a toll on the tech sector. However, today both stocks are significantly higher than they were at the time of the splits (in the end, fundamentals drive long-term stock value).The old Broadcom split its stock three times between 1999 and 2006. However, since Avago bought Broadcom and adopted its name in 2015, the stock has not split even once. Propelled by a series of acquisitions that were excellently managed and integrated by CEO Hock Tan to unleash strong shareholder value, the stock has appreciated 300%+ over the last 5-years alone.It's time for a split.Impact of A Potential 20:1 SplitAccording to its recent Q4 EPS report, Broadcom ended FY2024 with an average of 427 million fully diluted shares. Despite Broadcom's strong share buyback plan, that was actually up 4 million shares on a yoy basis, primarily because Broadcom was prevented from executing its full share buyback plan while the VMware deal was in-flux. However, from the Q4 conference call we learned:For fiscal 2023, we spent $15.3 billion, consisting of $7.6 billion in the form of cash dividends and $7.7 billion in share repurchases and eliminations. We ended the year with $7.2 billion of authorized share repurchase programs remaining. With the VMware deal closed, we have resumed repurchasing shares under our existing program.The resumption of share repurchases may be one reason for the strong stock-price action since the close of the VMware deal on November 22:Data by YChartsThe other reasons, of course, was the excellent Q4 earnings report combined with the FY2024 guidance - both of which I will get to in a minute. Meantime, a 20:1 stock split would equate to:An estimated 8.54 billion outstanding share count.A stock price of $53.01.An annual dividend of $1.05/share.The yield, of course, would stay the same (2.00%).EarningsBroadcom's Q4 revenue of $9.295 billion was only up 4% yoy and many investors and analysts appeared to be unimpressed. What they are missing is that Broadcom typically grows earnings and free-cash-flow faster than revenue, and this was once again the case in Q4:BroadcomAs can be seen in the graphic, Q4 earnings of $8.25/share were up 5.4% yoy. More importantly to me, Q4 free-cash-flow was $4.723 billion, which was up $262 million yoy, grew 5.9% yoy and was a whopping 50.8% of total revenue.The result of such terrific operational and financial performance was another very generous boost in Broadcom's quarterly dividend: a 14% increase to $5.25/share ($21/share on an annual basis).BroadcomAs you can see from the graphic above (taken from the December presentation, which I strongly encourage investors to review), Broadcom's ability to grow both organically and through M&A, and to deliver strong margins throughout the cycles, has enabled it to become one of the best dividend growth stocks in the entire S&P500 (if not the best).Going ForwardDue to the sizeable impact of the VMware acquisition, Broadcom did not give its typically quarterly guidance, but issued full-year FY2024 guidance instead:Consolidated revenue is expected to be $50 billion (+40% yoy).In total, the Infrastructure Software segment is expected to generate revenue of $20 billion (40% of total), with $12 billion coming from VMware That estimate is based on only 11 months of contribution from VMware and does not include ~$2 billion of revenue from VMware's EUC and Carbon Black units, which Broadcom plans to divest.Silicon revenue is expected to grow from mid-to-high single digits, driven primarily by generative AI.Broadcom also plans to convert \"an installed base of licenses that is over 60% perpetual today to one that will be mostly subscription by the end of fiscal 2024.\" While the conversion may well lead to short-term decline in what the software segment's revenue would otherwise be, it is expected that this strategy will actually accelerate VMware's revenue growth over the next three years.Broadcom also expects to spend ~$1 billion to digest VMware during FY24. The company expects VMware's spending run-rate will exit FY24 at ~$1.4 billion per quarter. That would be down 40% yoy and is yet another example of how CEO Hock Tan has consistently figured out how to ring-out higher margins from his acquisitions.I hope investors listened to the previously referenced Q4 conference call (CEO Hock Tan typically gives some of the most valuable commentary & analysis on the entire technology sector ...) and caught this gem, which is likely one of the primary rationalizations for the VMware acquisition:Well, as you may be aware, in the last VM Explore in Las Vegas, VMware came out and announced in partnership with NVIDIA, the VMware Private AI Cloud Foundation. Another way of describing it is, the VMware Cloud Foundation Software Stack, the whole VCF stack runs NVIDIA coder, runs the NVIDIA GPU. That is the partnership. So, if you’re an enterprise, it’s a very easy step to get into gen AI analytics because the data center that you as an enterprise own on-prem that runs VCF will by default run the NVIDIA GPU software stack as well.Another way to put it, it virtualizes the NVIDIA GPU. That’s the VMware software stack as well. So it’s a very strong attraction in our -- from our perspective to, in fact, accelerate thinking of a lot of enterprise to adopting the whole VCF site. It’s simply because not only does it virtualize the data centers and make your data on-prem data center much more resilient, easier to manage, lower cost to manage, it has the added benefit, a big attraction this is of being able to right away start running AI workloads.Sorry for the length of that quote, but it is important for investors to understand what is going on here. As I have been pointing out on Seeking Alpha for quite some time now, Nvidia's (NVDA) massive success in AI is not due solely to its GPUs designs (i.e. hardware), it's because Nvidia is also a leader in AI-related software as well. That being the case, VMware is going to make Nvidia's software even more valuable to its customers (and to Broadcom investors ...).Summary & ConclusionBroadcom's very high stock price rationalizes a 20:1 stock split. As pointed out in this article, stock splits in-and-of themselves do not create value. However, there are two benefits in my opinion: psychologically, investors like stock splits; a lower stock price would likely encourage many small investors to begin to accumulate shares.Regardless, the big picture investment thesis in Broadcom remains terrific. While the term \"rock star\" is used way too often in the corporate world, Broadcom CEO Hock Tan's performance track record puts him at the top of the tech sector's list (just view the chart below). Going forward, I see no indication, whatsoever, that any change is imminent: Broadcom will continue to grow its revenue, earnings, and free-cash-flow at a strong clip, maintain and grow its already strong margins, and rewards shareholders with arguably the best dividend growth in the business along with significant shareholder buybacks. A stock-split would be totally consistent with management's shareholder friendly policies.I'll end with a 10-year total returns comparison of Broadcom versus the three broad market indexes as represented by the (VOO), (QQQ), and (DIA) ETFs:Data by YChartsAs you can see, it's not even close: Broadcom has returned nearly 7x the total returns of the Nasdaq-100.

While the company managed to finally improve its rate of deliveries in August, its margins continue to deteriorate while its cash burn rate remains at unsustainable levels. As such, NIO would likely be prompted to increase additional liquidity that would dilute its shareholders, as the slowdown of China along with tough competition in Europe are unlikely to help the company's business to improve its financial performance anytime soon.</p><h2 id=\"id_1951163960\">The Worst Is Likely Not Over Yet</h2><p>Back in July, I warned that NIO is likely to disappoint investors as the company's deliveries in recent months were weak while its margins have been deteriorating for quite some time. That's exactly what has happened as the Q2 earnings results that were released in the last week of August showed that NIO's revenues during the three months were down 14.8% Y/Y to $1.21 billion and below the expectations by $60 million, while its non-GAAP EPADs was -$0.45, also below the expectations by $0.04. In addition to that, the deliveries in Q2 decreased by 6.1% Y/Y to 23,520 vehicles, while the vehicle margin was 6.2% against 16.7% a year ago.</p><p>While the company managed to improve its deliveries in August, which increased by 81% Y/Y to 19,329 vehicles, there are still plenty of reasons to believe that it won't help the company improve its margins or the bottom-line performance anytime soon. This is mostly due to the fact that the EV industry is currently in the middle of a price war that affects each car manufacturer across the globe. Even Tesla's (TSLA) margins have been contracting in recent quarters and are unlikely to improve anytime soon due to the fierce competition in a saturated market. What's more, is that the systemic issues that China currently faces could also have a negative effect on the whole industry in the foreseeable future.</p><p>In addition to all of that, NIO has also been constantly underperforming and disappointing its investors by missing expectations in recent quarters. This has resulted in a major depreciation of its shares in the last year alone, and besides the short-lived rebound in late July, its stock is stuck in limbo without any major growth catalysts that could've helped the business improve the situation.</p><p></p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/2519d8c380ce1392d924f0cc3620dc35\" title=\"\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"232\"/></p><p>NIO's Stock Performance (Seeking Alpha)</p><p></p><p>Even if the company ramps up its deliveries in the following months, its bottom-line would continue to suffer as the ongoing price war would prevent the company from significantly improving its margins in the foreseeable future. Despite the growth of deliveries in August, the street estimates that NIO's EPS in Q3 would stand at -$0.40 per share, down 12.26% Y/Y. At the same time, if we take a closer look at NIO's income statement, we'll see that its margins have been steadily declining in recent quarters and its gross margin in Q2 was only ~1%, down from ~13% a year ago.</p><p>What's more is that if we look at NIO's balance sheet, we'll see that the company's cash burn stands at around $1 billion per quarter and at the end of Q2 the business had only $3.8 billion in cash reserves. While the company managed to receive additional funding in late June from one of UAE's investment funds, the proceeds from the deal are likely to disappear within one quarter given the business's aggressive cash burn rate. In addition to that, NIO also proposed the offering of $1 billion convertible notes last week which shows that liquidity is slowly becoming an issue in this new environment. The cash from the offering is likely to be gone in another quarter as well if the company continues to burn resources at the current rate.</p><p>As such, the company would likely continue to look for more funding which would result in additional dilution of its existing shareholders, especially since the ongoing price war is likely going to result in a further contraction of margins even if the deliveries increase.</p><p>That's one of the main reasons why NIO has been receiving dozens of downward EPS revisions in recent months, as there are no major growth catalysts that could improve the company's financial state of affairs at this stage. That's also why I think that it's unlikely that we'll see a major rally anytime soon as the worst is likely not over yet for NIO.</p><h2 id=\"id_3106033409\">Emerging Risks On The Horizon</h2><p>In addition to financial issues, there are also geopolitical risks that make investing in NIO questionable at best. Almost a year ago I stated that China is uninvestable, as the Chinese government is likely to strengthen its grip over the private sector, which could diminish the potential returns for investors due to the implementation of programs such as the <em>Common Prosperity</em> that aims to redistribute wealth across the Chinese society. Since that time, NIO's stock has greatly underperformed the S&P 500 Index and there are more than enough reasons to believe that it will be the case in the foreseeable future due to the rise of additional geopolitical risks that could accelerate capital outflow from China.</p><p>On top of all of this, it's also hard to see how NIO could scale its sales in Europe to mitigate China-related risks. The company started to sell its vehicles in European markets in recent quarters, but the results have been subpar at best. In Q2, NIO sold only 504 vehicles in Europe, while in Q3 so far it sold only 681 of its EVs.</p><p>What's more, is that there are reasons to believe that it will become much harder for NIO and its Chinese peers to scale their sales in the region in the following quarters. On September 11 it was reported that France is pressuring the European Commission into opening an anti-dumping investigation against Chinese EV manufacturers. On September 13, it was announced that the European Commission has officially opened a probe against the Chinese manufacturers in order to stop the flood of EV imports into the bloc as it hurts the local producers. Such a move could result in a trade war with China that could make it nearly impossible for NIO and its peers to compete with legacy European automakers, especially in new tariffs are going to be announced. While companies like Tesla would be able to mitigate the trade war risks thanks to having their own production in the EU, firms like NIO that produce their vehicles solely on Chinese soil and ship them to other countries could lose access to one of the biggest EV markets in the world.</p><h2 id=\"id_830065143\">The Bottom Line</h2><p>It's safe to say that the current price war within the EV industry amid the slowdown of China would make it significantly harder for NIO to improve its financial performance as there's nothing that could stop the contraction of its margins at this stage.

While the company managed to finally improve its rate of deliveries in August, its margins continue to deteriorate while its cash burn rate remains at unsustainable levels. As such, NIO would likely be prompted to increase additional liquidity that would dilute its shareholders, as the slowdown of China along with tough competition in Europe are unlikely to help the company's business to improve its financial performance anytime soon.The Worst Is Likely Not Over YetBack in July, I warned that NIO is likely to disappoint investors as the company's deliveries in recent months were weak while its margins have been deteriorating for quite some time. That's exactly what has happened as the Q2 earnings results that were released in the last week of August showed that NIO's revenues during the three months were down 14.8% Y/Y to $1.21 billion and below the expectations by $60 million, while its non-GAAP EPADs was -$0.45, also below the expectations by $0.04. In addition to that, the deliveries in Q2 decreased by 6.1% Y/Y to 23,520 vehicles, while the vehicle margin was 6.2% against 16.7% a year ago.While the company managed to improve its deliveries in August, which increased by 81% Y/Y to 19,329 vehicles, there are still plenty of reasons to believe that it won't help the company improve its margins or the bottom-line performance anytime soon. This is mostly due to the fact that the EV industry is currently in the middle of a price war that affects each car manufacturer across the globe. Even Tesla's (TSLA) margins have been contracting in recent quarters and are unlikely to improve anytime soon due to the fierce competition in a saturated market. What's more, is that the systemic issues that China currently faces could also have a negative effect on the whole industry in the foreseeable future.In addition to all of that, NIO has also been constantly underperforming and disappointing its investors by missing expectations in recent quarters. This has resulted in a major depreciation of its shares in the last year alone, and besides the short-lived rebound in late July, its stock is stuck in limbo without any major growth catalysts that could've helped the business improve the situation.NIO's Stock Performance (Seeking Alpha)Even if the company ramps up its deliveries in the following months, its bottom-line would continue to suffer as the ongoing price war would prevent the company from significantly improving its margins in the foreseeable future. Despite the growth of deliveries in August, the street estimates that NIO's EPS in Q3 would stand at -$0.40 per share, down 12.26% Y/Y. At the same time, if we take a closer look at NIO's income statement, we'll see that its margins have been steadily declining in recent quarters and its gross margin in Q2 was only ~1%, down from ~13% a year ago.What's more is that if we look at NIO's balance sheet, we'll see that the company's cash burn stands at around $1 billion per quarter and at the end of Q2 the business had only $3.8 billion in cash reserves. While the company managed to receive additional funding in late June from one of UAE's investment funds, the proceeds from the deal are likely to disappear within one quarter given the business's aggressive cash burn rate. In addition to that, NIO also proposed the offering of $1 billion convertible notes last week which shows that liquidity is slowly becoming an issue in this new environment. The cash from the offering is likely to be gone in another quarter as well if the company continues to burn resources at the current rate.As such, the company would likely continue to look for more funding which would result in additional dilution of its existing shareholders, especially since the ongoing price war is likely going to result in a further contraction of margins even if the deliveries increase.That's one of the main reasons why NIO has been receiving dozens of downward EPS revisions in recent months, as there are no major growth catalysts that could improve the company's financial state of affairs at this stage. That's also why I think that it's unlikely that we'll see a major rally anytime soon as the worst is likely not over yet for NIO.Emerging Risks On The HorizonIn addition to financial issues, there are also geopolitical risks that make investing in NIO questionable at best. Almost a year ago I stated that China is uninvestable, as the Chinese government is likely to strengthen its grip over the private sector, which could diminish the potential returns for investors due to the implementation of programs such as the Common Prosperity that aims to redistribute wealth across the Chinese society. Since that time, NIO's stock has greatly underperformed the S&P 500 Index and there are more than enough reasons to believe that it will be the case in the foreseeable future due to the rise of additional geopolitical risks that could accelerate capital outflow from China.On top of all of this, it's also hard to see how NIO could scale its sales in Europe to mitigate China-related risks. The company started to sell its vehicles in European markets in recent quarters, but the results have been subpar at best. In Q2, NIO sold only 504 vehicles in Europe, while in Q3 so far it sold only 681 of its EVs.What's more, is that there are reasons to believe that it will become much harder for NIO and its Chinese peers to scale their sales in the region in the following quarters. On September 11 it was reported that France is pressuring the European Commission into opening an anti-dumping investigation against Chinese EV manufacturers. On September 13, it was announced that the European Commission has officially opened a probe against the Chinese manufacturers in order to stop the flood of EV imports into the bloc as it hurts the local producers. Such a move could result in a trade war with China that could make it nearly impossible for NIO and its peers to compete with legacy European automakers, especially in new tariffs are going to be announced. While companies like Tesla would be able to mitigate the trade war risks thanks to having their own production in the EU, firms like NIO that produce their vehicles solely on Chinese soil and ship them to other countries could lose access to one of the biggest EV markets in the world.The Bottom LineIt's safe to say that the current price war within the EV industry amid the slowdown of China would make it significantly harder for NIO to improve its financial performance as there's nothing that could stop the contraction of its margins at this stage. Add to all of this the potential headwinds that the company is likely to face in Europe and it becomes even harder to justify opening a long position in NIO even at the current market price.Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Discover the reasoning, psychology, and strategies behind this potential market maneuver.","content":"<html><body><div><p>Stock splits can make high-priced shares more accessible to ordinary investors. Accounting experts and textbooks call it a \"neutral event.\" It has no real effect on the stock's total market value or the value of shares in your portfolio.</p><p>Yet there's psychological value in a comfortably priced stock ticker, and auto-trading computer algorithms may execute trades based on specific prices and daily trading volumes.</p><p>So most companies with dramatic stock-price growth tend to perform stock splits from time to time. The exceptions to this rule end up with astronomical share prices over time.</p><p>Take Warren Buffett's <strong>Berkshire Hathaway</strong> <span>(BRK.A<span> -1.41%</span>)</span> <span>(BRK.B<span> -1.57%</span>)</span>, for example. In the most famous example of high-performance stocks without stock splits, the original Class A shares have been beating the market since the mid-1960s without spectacular changes to the share count. Today, the insurance-based conglomerate trades at $547,000 per share.</p><p>That's a bit more than the average consumer-sized wallet can handle. Berkshire issued a Class B stock in 1996, which danced the stock-split polka with a 50-for-1 split in 2010. Those shares can now be had for $358 a share.</p><div><div></div></div><p>Without the fairly recent split, even the low-cost alternative would command a princely sum of $17,900 per share in the summer of 2023. Both stock classes offer nearly identical returns over time.</p><p>So let's take a look at one of the highest-priced stocks in the surging stock market of 2023. Semiconductor giant <strong>Broadcom</strong> <span>(AVGO<span> -3.67%</span>)</span> has seen share prices rise 52% year to date and 161% in three years.</p><p>The old Broadcom stock did split three times between 1999 and 2006. But Avago, which acquired Broadcom and adopted the name in 2015, has never taken the stock-split route. As a result, one Broadcom share costs $850 right now. That's uncomfortably close to $1,000 -- a level few stocks in history ever achieved.</p><p>Should Broadcom issue a stock split in 2023? Here's what I think.</p><div><div></div></div><div><app :collapse_on_load=\"false\" :instrument_id=\"222667\" :show_benchmark_compare=\"true\" amount_change=\"-32.43\" average_volume=\"3,058,120\" company_name=\"Broadcom\" current_price=\"850.73\" daily_high=\"883.53\" daily_low=\"848.72\" default_period=\"FiveYear\" dividend_yield=\"2.08%\" exchange=\"NASDAQ\" fifty_two_week_high=\"923.18\" fifty_two_week_low=\"415.07\" gross_margin=\"63.69\" logo=\"https://g.foolcdn.com/art/companylogos/mark/AVGO.png\" market_cap=\"$351B\" pe_ratio=\"26.89\" percent_change=\"-3.67\" symbol=\"AVGO\" volume=\"3,894\"></app></div><h2>The factors and history behind stock splits</h2><p>There's no magic number that would automatically trigger a stock split for every stock. In recent memory, energy drink brewer <strong>Monster Beverage</strong> issued a 2-for-1 split when the pre-split share price stood just below $100. <strong>Amazon</strong>'s 20-for-1 split last summer, on the other hand, dropped share prices from $2,500 to $125.</p><p>Broadcom never announced a split before. Hence, there's no established history of split-inducing price levels. Furthermore, the topic of stock splits never comes up in Broadcom's earnings calls or investor conferences.</p><p>I checked every transcript I could find from the last three years and Broadcom management's use of the word \"split\" was largely limited to how its revenues are split between different client classes. It never showed up in the context of stock splits.</p><p>This stock could very well reach $1,000 per share and just keep on trucking. There is no rule, regulation, management promise, or tradition forcing the company to make a move.</p><div><div></div></div><p>That said, Broadcom could post a stock split without signaling its intentions beforehand. A 10-for-1 split would drop the share price to less than $100, assuming the stock doesn't go on a wild run before the adjustment takes effect.</p><p>The company would have to run this idea past a shareholder vote first, asking the owners to approve a dramatically larger number of authorized shares. This year's annual shareholder meeting was held in April, so there would have to be a special meeting for the purpose of tallying the vote.</p><p>That's just extra paperwork, though. I see no reason why the stockholder base would reject that proposal.</p><h2>What about Broadcom's shareholder-friendly strategy?</h2><p>Broadcom's board of directors (who would announce and manage the stock-split process) could soon seek a stock split, but there's no overwhelming reason to do so. Ultimately, the decision comes down to whether the company wants to encourage smaller investors to get more engaged with this stock.</p><p>On that note, I'm actually surprised by Broadcom's non-existent stock split history. Shareholder-friendly moves are right up this company's alley.</p><p>Over the last four quarters, Broadcom generated $17.1 billion of free cash flow. From that rich vein of cash profits, the company sent out dividend checks worth $7.4 billion while buying back shares to the tune of $6.9 billion. That's 83% of an impressive cash flow going right back into investors' pockets.</p><p>It doesn't make a big difference whether Broadcom splits its stock or not.

Accounting experts and textbooks call it a \"neutral event.\" It has no real effect on the stock's total market value or the value of shares in your portfolio.Yet there's psychological value in a comfortably priced stock ticker, and auto-trading computer algorithms may execute trades based on specific prices and daily trading volumes.So most companies with dramatic stock-price growth tend to perform stock splits from time to time. The exceptions to this rule end up with astronomical share prices over time.Take Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A -1.41%) (BRK.B -1.57%), for example. In the most famous example of high-performance stocks without stock splits, the original Class A shares have been beating the market since the mid-1960s without spectacular changes to the share count. Today, the insurance-based conglomerate trades at $547,000 per share.That's a bit more than the average consumer-sized wallet can handle. Berkshire issued a Class B stock in 1996, which danced the stock-split polka with a 50-for-1 split in 2010. Those shares can now be had for $358 a share.Without the fairly recent split, even the low-cost alternative would command a princely sum of $17,900 per share in the summer of 2023. Both stock classes offer nearly identical returns over time.So let's take a look at one of the highest-priced stocks in the surging stock market of 2023. Semiconductor giant Broadcom (AVGO -3.67%) has seen share prices rise 52% year to date and 161% in three years.The old Broadcom stock did split three times between 1999 and 2006. But Avago, which acquired Broadcom and adopted the name in 2015, has never taken the stock-split route. As a result, one Broadcom share costs $850 right now. That's uncomfortably close to $1,000 -- a level few stocks in history ever achieved.Should Broadcom issue a stock split in 2023? Here's what I think.The factors and history behind stock splitsThere's no magic number that would automatically trigger a stock split for every stock. In recent memory, energy drink brewer Monster Beverage issued a 2-for-1 split when the pre-split share price stood just below $100. Amazon's 20-for-1 split last summer, on the other hand, dropped share prices from $2,500 to $125.Broadcom never announced a split before. Hence, there's no established history of split-inducing price levels. Furthermore, the topic of stock splits never comes up in Broadcom's earnings calls or investor conferences.I checked every transcript I could find from the last three years and Broadcom management's use of the word \"split\" was largely limited to how its revenues are split between different client classes. It never showed up in the context of stock splits.This stock could very well reach $1,000 per share and just keep on trucking. There is no rule, regulation, management promise, or tradition forcing the company to make a move.That said, Broadcom could post a stock split without signaling its intentions beforehand. A 10-for-1 split would drop the share price to less than $100, assuming the stock doesn't go on a wild run before the adjustment takes effect.The company would have to run this idea past a shareholder vote first, asking the owners to approve a dramatically larger number of authorized shares. This year's annual shareholder meeting was held in April, so there would have to be a special meeting for the purpose of tallying the vote.That's just extra paperwork, though. I see no reason why the stockholder base would reject that proposal.What about Broadcom's shareholder-friendly strategy?Broadcom's board of directors (who would announce and manage the stock-split process) could soon seek a stock split, but there's no overwhelming reason to do so. Ultimately, the decision comes down to whether the company wants to encourage smaller investors to get more engaged with this stock.On that note, I'm actually surprised by Broadcom's non-existent stock split history. Shareholder-friendly moves are right up this company's alley.Over the last four quarters, Broadcom generated $17.1 billion of free cash flow. From that rich vein of cash profits, the company sent out dividend checks worth $7.4 billion while buying back shares to the tune of $6.9 billion. That's 83% of an impressive cash flow going right back into investors' pockets.It doesn't make a big difference whether Broadcom splits its stock or not. The move itself shouldn't move Broadcom's adjusted share price or the total market value in the long run.Still, I sort of expect such a shareholder-friendly business to keep the skyrocketing stock affordable to the common stock buyer. So I won't hold my breath waiting, but it's entirely possible that Broadcom could announce the preliminary steps toward a stock split at any moment.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":499,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":198793079197704,"gmtCreate":1689567641328,"gmtModify":1689567642891,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/198793079197704","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":353,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189543334207712,"gmtCreate":1687300899728,"gmtModify":1687300904029,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Bravo","listText":"Bravo","text":"Bravo","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189543334207712","repostId":"2344258155","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2344258155","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1687274165,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2344258155?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-06-20 23:16","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cisco launches new AI networking chips to compete with Broadcom, Marvell","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2344258155","media":"Reuters","summary":"June 20 (Reuters) - Cisco Systems on Tuesday launched networking chips for AI supercomputers that would compete with offerings from Broadcom and Marvell Technology .

(<span>NASDAQ:AVGO</span>) is a leading semiconductor company with a broad portfolio of patents (over 23,000) and market leadership in niche products of logic semiconductors such as ethernet switches (76%) and ASICs (35%) and analog semiconductors including fibre channel (75%). Also, we know<span> that Broadcom has had an acquisition strategy based on its past M&A activities since 1960. We determined that its M&A strategy had been beneficial to its revenue growth, with M&A contributing to 54% of total revenue growth in the past 10 years.</span></p> <p>Furthermore, we believed its acquisition of CA Technologies highlights its continued diversification into the software industry and confirmed its expansion with the acquisition of Symantec’s enterprise security business. Moreover, its software expansion is supported by its partnerships with major cloud service provider Google Cloud by migrating its suite of enterprise software to the cloud, improving its scale and deployment efficiencies. Following these acquisitions, we confirmed the integration of its infrastructure software businesses with the launch of integrated products and improved its profitability by leveraging its common customer base to streamline its SG&A activities and increase its focus on R&D.</p> <p>Additionally, we determined that Broadcom has a dividend payment strategy based on cash flows (50%) and we forecasted its dividends per share to grow by 18% on average through 2024 based on expected cash flows. However, we see the company's high and rising debt levels could be a concern for its acquisition strategy.</p> <p>Recently, the company announced its acquisition of VMware (VMW) for a consideration of approximately $61 bln from an even split between cash and stock. This is expected to be completed by FY2023. The announcement of the deal is unsurprising to us, as we understood that the company has an acquisition strategy based on its past M&A activity since 1960. Previously, we already analyzed and expected the company to continue its diversification into the software industry as we saw it more progressively moving into software with 3 acquisitions, starting with Brocade in 2017 and expanding through its acquisitions such as CA Technologies in 2018 and Symantec Enterprise Security in 2019.</p> <p>To determine the impact of the acquisition on the company, we first analyzed VMware’s products and customers. We estimated its potential revenue synergies by determining whether it serves a common customer base with Broadcom which are enterprise customers based on its business relationships with the Fortune 500 firms. Additionally, we then examined whether Broadcom is planning to shift VMware’s license customers to subscriptions and projected its revenue growth and contribution to Broadcom.</p> <p>Moreover, we examined the potential for integration opportunities between Broadcom and VMware by targeting a common customer base on its operating expenses including SG&A and R&D by comparing Broadcom’s software segment margins with its previous acquisitions. We then projected the company’s operating margins through 2026 based on management's targeted EBITDA contribution.</p> <p>Lastly, we analyzed the deal’s acquisition cost with a mix of cash and stock to determine its impact on its cash flows and net debt through 2026. Also, we determined and analyzed its WACC pre-and post-acquisition with the increased debt.</p> <h2><strong>VMware Revenue Opportunity</strong></h2> <p>VMware provides a “core cloud infrastructure that powers modern enterprises.” The company’s product portfolio includes its</p> <blockquote><p>vSphere server virtualization platform, vSAN data storage virtualization solution, vRealize cloud management platform that provides automation, analytics and life cycle management for private cloud workloads and NSX.</p></blockquote> <p>Besides that, VMware's Tanzu platform “provides an end-to-end modern application management platform and end-user and security solutions.” According to Gartner (IT), VMware was the market leader in the global virtualization infrastructure software market in 2021 with a market share of 72%.</p> <p>According to Broadcom, the acquisition supports its software business and position to target the same type of large multinational enterprise customers. The company highlighted that its customers' demands include retaining control over their infrastructure by deploying applications that require software to develop and run the applications.</p> <blockquote><p>By adding VMware, we will bring significant scale to Broadcom's software business and reinforce our position as a premier provider of mission-critical platform solutions to enterprises globally. – Hock Tan, CEO</p></blockquote> <p>Additionally, management also highlighted the deal to target its common customer base. According to VMware, the company already serves 99% of Fortune 500 firms. In comparison, Broadcom’s software presentation highlighted that its software segment serves 80% of Fortune 500 firms. Thus, we believe that the acquisition of VMware could provide Broadcom with opportunities to strengthen its presence among enterprise customers by leveraging VMware’s solid market leadership and presence among the Fortune 500 firms and create revenue synergies for the company through upselling and cross-sell opportunities which are consistent to its overall software expansion strategy. Thus, we estimated its revenue synergies by calculating its software revenue based on its Fortune 500 customer presence pre-acquisition at 80% to 99% post-acquisition.</p> <span><table> <tr> <td><p><strong>Estimated Revenue Synergies ($ mln)</strong></p></td> <td><p><strong>2021 </strong></p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Broadcom Software Revenue ('a')</p></td> <td><p>7,067</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Enterprise Customer Presence (Pre-acquisition) ('b')</p></td> <td><p>80%</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Enterprise Customer Presence (Post-acquisition) ('c')</p></td> <td><p>99%</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Broadcom Estimated Software Revenue (With Increased Customer Presence) ('d')</p></td> <td><p>8,745</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Revenue Synergies ('e')</p></td> <td><p>1,678</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Revenue Synergies as % of Software Revenue</p></td> <td><p>24%</p></td> </tr> </table></span> <p><em>*d = a/b x c</em></p> <p><em>e = d – a </em></p> <p><em>Source: Broadcom, VMware, Khaveen Investments </em></p> <p>Based on the table above of our estimates of its revenue synergies, we expect the acquisition to generate $1,678 mln in revenue synergy opportunities for Broadcom’s software segment which is 24% of its 2021 segment revenue. Furthermore, Gartner highlighted in the quote below the synergies between Broadcom’s mainframe solutions with VMware’s Tanzu platform.</p> <blockquote><p>There are synergies with some of the CA tools for CI/CD and DevOps that could combine well with Tanzu, for those enterprises that are considering what to do with their legacy workloads, – Dennis Smith, Research <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VP..UK\">VP</a> in Gartner’s Infrastructure and Operations division</p></blockquote> <p>Furthermore, in line with its previous acquisitions including CA and Symantec’s enterprise security, the company explained that it is committed to shifting VMware’s perpetual license customers towards a subscription model.</p> <blockquote><p>The other top line is you can see that VMware has a perpetual model a lot in -- a lot of their on-prem licenses, they have a substantial $3 billion perpetual.

We forecasted VMware’s revenue based on its license, subscription and segment revenue based on its past 5-year average growth rate.

In comparison, its 2-year average software segment post-acquisition had an average growth rate of 17.5% which we believe highlights its revenue growth acceleration following Broadcom’s shifting its focus on enterprise clients and from a license to a subscription model.

While VMware had dominated the virtualization software market, according to VMware’s annual report, the company highlighted that it faces the risk of new applications being developed on public cloud providers which could reduce the demand for its products and services. However, the company had also partnered with cloud providers such as Microsoft which also competes against VMware with its Hyper V software. Additionally, other cloud-based competitors include Oracle (ORCL) VM server and Enterprise Linux with Smart Virtualization by Red Hat.</p> <h2><strong>Valuation</strong></h2> <p>We valued the company with a DCF valuation as we expect the company to continue generating positive free cash flows post-acquisition. We based its terminal value on the chipmaker's average EV/EBITDA of 18.44x.</p> <p><figure contenteditable=\"false\"><span><img contenteditable=\"true\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/6/28/49636850-16564165631002376.jpg\"/></span><figcaption><p><span>SeekingAlpha, Khaveen Investments</span></p></figcaption></figure></p> <p>Based on a discount rate of 7.4% (company’s WACC post-acquisition) and accounting for its post-acquisition share outstanding of 615 mln, our model shows an upside of 44.5%</p> <p><figure contenteditable=\"false\"><span><img contenteditable=\"true\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2022/6/28/49636850-16564165403776069.jpg\"/></span><figcaption><p><span>Khaveen Investments</span></p></figcaption></figure></p> <span><table> <tr> <td><p><strong>Equity Value ($mln)</strong></p></td> <td><p><strong>Pre-Acquisition</strong></p></td> <td><p><strong>Post-Acquisition</strong></p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Enterprise Value</p></td> <td><p>488,064</p></td> <td><p>488,064</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Plus: Cash</p></td> <td><p>10,219</p></td> <td><p>19,719</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Less: Debt</p></td> <td><p>49,152</p></td> <td><p>81,495</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Less: Minority Interest</p></td> <td><p>-</p></td> <td><p>-</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Equity Value</p></td> <td><p>449,131</p></td> <td><p>426,288</p></td> </tr> <tr> <td><p>Average FCF (5-year Forward)</p></td> <td><p>12,948</p></td> <td><p>20,696</p></td> </tr> </table></span> <p><em>Source: Khaveen Investments </em></p> <p>Additionally, following the acquisition, we estimated its equity value to decrease to $426 bln from $449 bln due to the increase of its debt from $49 bln to $81.5 bln despite the increase of its cash from $10 bln to $19.7 bln. Although we expect its equity value to decrease with the acquisition, however, we projected its average FCFs to increase with the acquisition with a difference of $7.7 bln in the 5 years post-acquisition.</p> <h2><strong>Verdict </strong></h2> <p>To conclude, we analyzed the company’s planned acquisition of VMware at a cost of around $59 bln based on a mix of cash and debt expected to be completed in FY2023. Not only is the deal expected to contribute 85% of revenue increase for the company and represent 32% of its total revenue, but we also expect the deal to create revenue synergy opportunities for the company as the market leader in virtualization software and have a common customer base of enterprise customers at an estimate of $1.9 bln. Also, we believe its shift towards a subscription model could support its revenue growth acceleration at an average of 17% from its past 5-year average of 11.6%. Moreover, we believe that through the integration of its sales force and elimination of redundancies, the VMware’s operating margins could increase to 34.1% by 2025 from 19.1%. While this is lower than Broadcom’s margins, we expect its operating income to continue growing due to VMware’s superior revenue growth.</p> <p>While we expect a financial impact on the company post-acquisition with its FCF margins forecasted to decline to -34.7% and its debt to increase by 65%, we believe that the acquisition is still positive as we expect its capital structure to improve with a reduced WACC to 7.4% from 8.1%. Additionally, despite the increase in its debt, its debt weight would increase to only 28.5% from 19.4% previously. Moreover, we forecasted its cash-to-debt ratio to improve to 0.41x by 2026 supported by its strong cash-generating abilities with a forecasted average FCF margin of 29% through 2026.</p> <p>Most importantly, compared to our previous analysis, our forecasted revenue growth accounting for the acquisition has increased to a 5-year forward of 22% compared to 8.8% in our previous analysis. Overall, we rate the company as a <em>Strong Buy </em>with a target price of <em>$730.80.</em></p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Broadcom: Acquisition Of VMware Provides 32% Revenue Boost</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nBroadcom: Acquisition Of VMware Provides 32% Revenue Boost\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-06-29 07:20 GMT+8 <a href=https://seekingalpha.com/article/4520836-broadcom-acquisition-of-vmware-provides-32-percent-revenue-boost><strong>seekingalpha</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Justin Sullivan/Getty Images News Broadcom Inc.

(NASDAQ:AVGO) is a leading semiconductor company with a broad portfolio of patents (over 23,000) and market leadership in niche products of logic semiconductors such as ethernet switches (76%) and ASICs (35%) and analog semiconductors including fibre channel (75%). Also, we know that Broadcom has had an acquisition strategy based on its past M&A activities since 1960. We determined that its M&A strategy had been beneficial to its revenue growth, with M&A contributing to 54% of total revenue growth in the past 10 years. Furthermore, we believed its acquisition of CA Technologies highlights its continued diversification into the software industry and confirmed its expansion with the acquisition of Symantec’s enterprise security business. Moreover, its software expansion is supported by its partnerships with major cloud service provider Google Cloud by migrating its suite of enterprise software to the cloud, improving its scale and deployment efficiencies. Following these acquisitions, we confirmed the integration of its infrastructure software businesses with the launch of integrated products and improved its profitability by leveraging its common customer base to streamline its SG&A activities and increase its focus on R&D. Additionally, we determined that Broadcom has a dividend payment strategy based on cash flows (50%) and we forecasted its dividends per share to grow by 18% on average through 2024 based on expected cash flows. However, we see the company's high and rising debt levels could be a concern for its acquisition strategy. Recently, the company announced its acquisition of VMware (VMW) for a consideration of approximately $61 bln from an even split between cash and stock. This is expected to be completed by FY2023. The announcement of the deal is unsurprising to us, as we understood that the company has an acquisition strategy based on its past M&A activity since 1960. Previously, we already analyzed and expected the company to continue its diversification into the software industry as we saw it more progressively moving into software with 3 acquisitions, starting with Brocade in 2017 and expanding through its acquisitions such as CA Technologies in 2018 and Symantec Enterprise Security in 2019. To determine the impact of the acquisition on the company, we first analyzed VMware’s products and customers. We estimated its potential revenue synergies by determining whether it serves a common customer base with Broadcom which are enterprise customers based on its business relationships with the Fortune 500 firms. Additionally, we then examined whether Broadcom is planning to shift VMware’s license customers to subscriptions and projected its revenue growth and contribution to Broadcom. Moreover, we examined the potential for integration opportunities between Broadcom and VMware by targeting a common customer base on its operating expenses including SG&A and R&D by comparing Broadcom’s software segment margins with its previous acquisitions. We then projected the company’s operating margins through 2026 based on management's targeted EBITDA contribution. Lastly, we analyzed the deal’s acquisition cost with a mix of cash and stock to determine its impact on its cash flows and net debt through 2026. Also, we determined and analyzed its WACC pre-and post-acquisition with the increased debt. VMware Revenue Opportunity VMware provides a “core cloud infrastructure that powers modern enterprises.” The company’s product portfolio includes its vSphere server virtualization platform, vSAN data storage virtualization solution, vRealize cloud management platform that provides automation, analytics and life cycle management for private cloud workloads and NSX. Besides that, VMware's Tanzu platform “provides an end-to-end modern application management platform and end-user and security solutions.” According to Gartner (IT), VMware was the market leader in the global virtualization infrastructure software market in 2021 with a market share of 72%. According to Broadcom, the acquisition supports its software business and position to target the same type of large multinational enterprise customers. The company highlighted that its customers' demands include retaining control over their infrastructure by deploying applications that require software to develop and run the applications. By adding VMware, we will bring significant scale to Broadcom's software business and reinforce our position as a premier provider of mission-critical platform solutions to enterprises globally. – Hock Tan, CEO Additionally, management also highlighted the deal to target its common customer base. According to VMware, the company already serves 99% of Fortune 500 firms. In comparison, Broadcom’s software presentation highlighted that its software segment serves 80% of Fortune 500 firms. Thus, we believe that the acquisition of VMware could provide Broadcom with opportunities to strengthen its presence among enterprise customers by leveraging VMware’s solid market leadership and presence among the Fortune 500 firms and create revenue synergies for the company through upselling and cross-sell opportunities which are consistent to its overall software expansion strategy. Thus, we estimated its revenue synergies by calculating its software revenue based on its Fortune 500 customer presence pre-acquisition at 80% to 99% post-acquisition. Estimated Revenue Synergies ($ mln) 2021 Broadcom Software Revenue ('a') 7,067 Enterprise Customer Presence (Pre-acquisition) ('b') 80% Enterprise Customer Presence (Post-acquisition) ('c') 99% Broadcom Estimated Software Revenue (With Increased Customer Presence) ('d') 8,745 Revenue Synergies ('e') 1,678 Revenue Synergies as % of Software Revenue 24% *d = a/b x c e = d – a Source: Broadcom, VMware, Khaveen Investments Based on the table above of our estimates of its revenue synergies, we expect the acquisition to generate $1,678 mln in revenue synergy opportunities for Broadcom’s software segment which is 24% of its 2021 segment revenue. Furthermore, Gartner highlighted in the quote below the synergies between Broadcom’s mainframe solutions with VMware’s Tanzu platform. There are synergies with some of the CA tools for CI/CD and DevOps that could combine well with Tanzu, for those enterprises that are considering what to do with their legacy workloads, – Dennis Smith, Research VP in Gartner’s Infrastructure and Operations division Furthermore, in line with its previous acquisitions including CA and Symantec’s enterprise security, the company explained that it is committed to shifting VMware’s perpetual license customers towards a subscription model. The other top line is you can see that VMware has a perpetual model a lot in -- a lot of their on-prem licenses, they have a substantial $3 billion perpetual. And we are converting them to over time -- over the next couple of years to subscription. – Hock Tan, CEO VMware Revenue Projections ($ mln) 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022F 2023F 2024F 2025F 2026F License (switch to a subscription model) 2,350 2,628 3,042 3,181 3,033 3,128 3,320 3,801 4,671 6,130 8,046 Growth % -2.2% 11.8% 15.8% 4.6% -4.7% 3.1% 6.1% 14.5% 22.9% 31.3% 31.3% Subscription and SaaS 687 927 1,303 1,877 2,587 3,205 3,596 4,720 6,195 8,131 10,672 Growth % 36.9% 34.9% 40.6% 44.1% 37.8% 23.9% 31.3% 31.3% 31.3% 31.3% 31.3% Services 4,403 4,781 5,268 5,753 6,147 6,518 7,051 7,627 8,250 8,924 9,654 Growth % 9.7% 8.6% 10.2% 9.2% 6.8% 6.0% 8.2% 8.2% 8.2% 8.2% 8.2% Total 7,440 8,336 9,613 10,811 11,767 12,851 13,966 16,148 19,116 23,186 28,372 Growth % 7.5% 12.0% 15.3% 12.5% 8.8% 9.2% 8.7% 15.6% 18.4% 21.3% 22.4% Source: VMWare, Khaveen Investments Based on VMware’s revenue breakdown, its subscription service represented 25% of its total revenues and was its fastest-growing segment with 10-year average revenue growth of 36.4%. On the other hand, its license revenue was 24% of its total revenue with an average growth rate of 4.7%. We forecasted VMware’s revenue based on its license, subscription and segment revenue based on its past 5-year average growth rate. For its subscription segment, we tapered down its average growth by 5% as a conservative estimate. To account for the switch from license revenue to subscriptions, we assumed its revenue growth to accelerate to 31.3% by 2025 based on its average subscription growth rate tapered down by 5% (31.3%). Acquisition Pre-Acquisition (5-year Average Revenue Growth %) Post-Acquisition (2-year Revenue Growth) CA Technologies -2.4% N/A Brocade 1.8% N/A Symantec Enterprise Security 2.6% N/A Average 0.04% 17.5% VMware 11.6% 17.0% Source: CA, Brocade, Symantec, VMware, Khaveen Investments For a comparison with its previous acquisitions, VMware had a higher average 5-year revenue growth rate before the acquisition (11.6%) than all 3 of its previous acquisitions which had a weighted average growth of only 0.04%. In comparison, its 2-year average software segment post-acquisition had an average growth rate of 17.5% which we believe highlights its revenue growth acceleration following Broadcom’s shifting its focus on enterprise clients and from a license to a subscription model. Therefore, we expect VMware growth to accelerate following its acquisition as the company shifts towards subscriptions as well and we forecasted its 2-year average growth post-acquisition to increase to 17% from 11.6%. According to Broadcom, the deal is expected to be completed by FY2023 subject to regulatory and shareholder approval. Based on our revenue projections for Broadcom from our previous analysis, we factored in VMware’s revenue contribution in FY2023.

Additionally, as VMware’s presence among the Fortune 500 firms is 99% and higher than Broadcom (80%), we believe this could provide revenue synergy creation and forecasted its revenue synergies to be $1.9bln across 3 years. In FY2023, we expect VMware’s revenue to account for 32.2% of its total revenues and represent 85% of its revenue increase for the year. Beyond that, we expect through the shift towards subscriptions, its revenue growth to accelerate at an average growth rate of 17% in 2 years post-acquisition. Integration with VMware As highlighted from our previous analysis, we believe another key opportunity for Broadcom is to integrate its acquired companies selling & admin operations with its sales force and provide an opportunity to leverage Broadcom’s existing relationships with key enterprise clients. This is as its SG&A as a % of revenue declined while its R&D expenses increase as it shifted its focus on R&D. Moreover, we compared Broadcom’s Infrastructure Software segment operating margin in the table below. We adjusted its Infrastructure Software segment margin with its unallocated expenses of $1.9 bln which we prorated based on its segment revenue breakdown. Margins Operating Margins % CA Technologies (pre-acquisition) 28.12% Brocade (pre-acquisition) 13.09% Symantec Enterprise Security (pre-acquisition) 18.52% Broadcom Adjusted Software Segment (current) 42.91% Source: Broadcom, CA, Brocade, Symantec, Khaveen Investments From the table above, Broadcom’s adjusted software margins (42.91%) were higher than CA Technologies (28.12%), Brocade (13.09%) and Symantec’s Enterprise Security (18.52%) margins pre-acquisition. Additionally, in the table below, Broadcom’s adjusted software segment margins had also consistently increased in the past 3 years from 28.2% in 2019 to 42.9% in 2021.

Expenses VMware Broadcom Infrastructure Software SG&A Expenses as % of revenue 39.5% 17.6% R&D Expenses as % of revenue 23.8% 29.0% Operating Margins 19.1% 42.9% Source: Broadcom, VMware, Khaveen Investments Based on VMware’s operating expense breakdown, its SG&A expenses were the largest expense at 39.5% of revenue followed by R&D at 23.8% of revenue. In contrast, Broadcom has a lower SG&A but higher R&D spending for its software segment and had a higher operating margin of 42.9% compared to VMware at only 19.1%. From its earnings briefing, Broadcom’s management highlighted its opportunity to derive synergies to reduce its SG&A through the integration of its direct sales force with VMware. And so we have a direct sales force, and we're going to leverage the fact that we have common coverage in both of those areas and take advantage of getting synergies there. – Tom Krause, CFO Additionally, the company also highlighted potential employee layoffs as it mentioned to “eliminate duplicative administrative functions” across “IT, finance, legal, human resources and facilities”. However, a difference in this acquisition compared to its past acquisitions is that the company had also indicated that it intends to retain VMware’s channel distribution model. Based on its annual report, VMware has a channel partner network including system integrators and resellers. And we think from learning about how we and Symantec, and frankly some of the revenues that we gave up, we think we can actually go back and reinvest in the channel and continue to drive revenue growth profitably. We don't want to walk away from the channel. We actually want to embrace it, – Tom Krause, CFO According to the company, it expects the acquisition to generate $8.5 bln in EBITDA within 3 years following the deal closing. Based on its target, we calculated the expected operating margin in 2025 assuming the deal closes in 2023 and depreciation of $593 mln to derive its EBIT target of $7,907 mln which we estimate to be an operating margin of 33.2% based on our revenue forecast in 2025 from the previous point.

However, unlike prior acquisitions, the company indicated its intention to leverage VMware’s channel partner network. Thus, we forecasted VMware’s operating margins to reach 34.1% by 2025 based on its guided EBITDA target of $8.5 bln within 3 years post-acquisition completion. However, its margins are lower in comparison to Broadcom’s adjusted software margins at 42.9% and we expect it to weigh down on its overall operating margins to 28.8% in 2023 but gradually improve with the increase of VMware’s margins. Despite the lower margins, we still expect the company’s total operating income to continue growing driven by the higher revenue growth of VMware. Financial Impact Based on the deal, Broadcom will pay VMware shareholders either $142.50 in cash or 0.2520 shares of Broadcom for each VMware share subjected to proration resulting in 50% of VMware shares exchanged for cash and half for Broadcom stock. Based on our calculations, we derived a total consideration of $59bln compared to its approximation of $61 bln from the announcement.

Also, we accounted for the Capex of VMware in our projections based on its 10-year average Capex as a % of revenue (3.7%).

Beyond that, we forecasted its average FCF margin of 29%. Additionally, Broadcom obtained commitments from a consortium of banks for $32 bln in debt financing. Additionally, the company will assume $8 bln of net debt from VMware according to Broadcom. Broadcom, VMware, Khaveen Investments Assuming the deal is completed by FY2023 as planned, we forecasted Broadcom’s debt to increase by 64.7% in 2023 and its cash to debt ratio to be impacted from 0.33x in 2022 to 0.24x in 2023. Due to the strong FCF cash generation of Broadcom, our model shows its cash to debt ratio recovering to 0.41x by 2026.

Moreover, its EBITDA/Net debt had remained stagnant in the past 10 years to 0.4x in 2021. Overall, we believe this highlights its deteriorating ability to repay its debt obligations with its increased debt. Pre-Acquisition Value ($ mln) Weight Cost Equity 204,215 80.6% 9.6% Debt 49,152 19.4% 2.1% WACC 8.1% Post-Acquisition Value ($ mln) Weight Cost Equity 204,215 71.5% 9.6% Debt 81,495 28.5% 2.1% WACC 7.4% Source: Khaveen Investments With the expected increase in its debt, we calculated the company’s WACC pre-and post-acquisition. Based on the table, we expect its debt weight to increase from 19.4% to 28.5%. As its cost of debt (2.1%) is lower than its cost of equity (9.6%), its post-acquisition WACC shows a decline to 7.4% from 8.1%. Overall, while we expect the deal to weigh on Broadcom’s FCF margin in FY2023 at -34.7% with an acquisition cost of $59 bln and increase its debt by 65%, however, we still believe the acquisition could provide a positive contribution to the company’s financials with a better capital structure with a lower WACC from 8.1% to 7.4% due to the increase of its debt weight to 28.5%. Furthermore, we believe that Broadcom’s cash to debt would improve to 0.41x by 2026 from 0.24x in 2023 supported by its strong cash flow generating abilities with a forecasted average FCF margin of 29% beyond 2023. All in all, we believe that the company’s financials should be able to support this acquisition. Risk: Competitive Threats According to Forrester Research, it highlighted that the company could be faced with challenges from other competitors such as Nutanix (NTNX), IBM Red Hat (IBM) and the major public cloud players like AWS (AMZN), Microsoft Azure (MSFT) and Google Cloud (GOOG). While VMware had dominated the virtualization software market, according to VMware’s annual report, the company highlighted that it faces the risk of new applications being developed on public cloud providers which could reduce the demand for its products and services. However, the company had also partnered with cloud providers such as Microsoft which also competes against VMware with its Hyper V software. Additionally, other cloud-based competitors include Oracle (ORCL) VM server and Enterprise Linux with Smart Virtualization by Red Hat. Valuation We valued the company with a DCF valuation as we expect the company to continue generating positive free cash flows post-acquisition. We based its terminal value on the chipmaker's average EV/EBITDA of 18.44x. SeekingAlpha, Khaveen Investments Based on a discount rate of 7.4% (company’s WACC post-acquisition) and accounting for its post-acquisition share outstanding of 615 mln, our model shows an upside of 44.5% Khaveen Investments Equity Value ($mln) Pre-Acquisition Post-Acquisition Enterprise Value 488,064 488,064 Plus: Cash 10,219 19,719 Less: Debt 49,152 81,495 Less: Minority Interest - - Equity Value 449,131 426,288 Average FCF (5-year Forward) 12,948 20,696 Source: Khaveen Investments Additionally, following the acquisition, we estimated its equity value to decrease to $426 bln from $449 bln due to the increase of its debt from $49 bln to $81.5 bln despite the increase of its cash from $10 bln to $19.7 bln. Although we expect its equity value to decrease with the acquisition, however, we projected its average FCFs to increase with the acquisition with a difference of $7.7 bln in the 5 years post-acquisition. Verdict To conclude, we analyzed the company’s planned acquisition of VMware at a cost of around $59 bln based on a mix of cash and debt expected to be completed in FY2023. Not only is the deal expected to contribute 85% of revenue increase for the company and represent 32% of its total revenue, but we also expect the deal to create revenue synergy opportunities for the company as the market leader in virtualization software and have a common customer base of enterprise customers at an estimate of $1.9 bln. Also, we believe its shift towards a subscription model could support its revenue growth acceleration at an average of 17% from its past 5-year average of 11.6%. Moreover, we believe that through the integration of its sales force and elimination of redundancies, the VMware’s operating margins could increase to 34.1% by 2025 from 19.1%. While this is lower than Broadcom’s margins, we expect its operating income to continue growing due to VMware’s superior revenue growth. While we expect a financial impact on the company post-acquisition with its FCF margins forecasted to decline to -34.7% and its debt to increase by 65%, we believe that the acquisition is still positive as we expect its capital structure to improve with a reduced WACC to 7.4% from 8.1%. Additionally, despite the increase in its debt, its debt weight would increase to only 28.5% from 19.4% previously. Moreover, we forecasted its cash-to-debt ratio to improve to 0.41x by 2026 supported by its strong cash-generating abilities with a forecasted average FCF margin of 29% through 2026. Most importantly, compared to our previous analysis, our forecasted revenue growth accounting for the acquisition has increased to a 5-year forward of 22% compared to 8.8% in our previous analysis. Overall, we rate the company as a Strong Buy with a target price of $730.80.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":335,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9064462389,"gmtCreate":1652362336441,"gmtModify":1676535084873,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Trash ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Trash ","text":"$Senseonics(SENS)$Trash","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9064462389","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":221,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9036378886,"gmtCreate":1647002621266,"gmtModify":1676534186170,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"No way back ","listText":"No way back ","text":"No way back","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9036378886","repostId":"9036368493","repostType":1,"repost":{"id":9036368493,"gmtCreate":1646992567748,"gmtModify":1676534185192,"author":{"id":"3553647761913982","authorId":"3553647761913982","name":"SnowKry","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e913ec8152207ac37e122db039e3a47a","crmLevel":2,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3553647761913982","authorIdStr":"3553647761913982"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/DIDI\">$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$</a>[Cry] ","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/DIDI\">$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$</a>[Cry] ","text":"$DiDi Global Inc.(DIDI)$[Cry]","images":[{"img":"https://static.itradeup.com/news/412ad03afe4a56e8afd14fc77077fa2e","width":"1440","height":"2560"}],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9036368493","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":0,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":1,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":279,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9031296308,"gmtCreate":1646572146631,"gmtModify":1676534140333,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Best ","listText":"Best ","text":"Best","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9031296308","repostId":"1136361690","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1136361690","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1646442354,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1136361690?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-03-05 09:05","market":"us","language":"en","title":"7 Earnings Reports to Watch the Week of March 7","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1136361690","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020.

With 95% of <b>S&P 500</b> companies having reported results for the fourth quarter of 2021, the season for earnings reports is coming to a conclusion. We’re just about at junior mining companies and biopharmaceutical start-ups.</p><p>However, there are still a handful of companies left to issue their Q4 prints that have the potential to move stocks in their respective sectors if not the broader market. To date, more than three-quarters (76%) of S&P 500 companies have reported better-than-expected earnings for the final three months of last year, according to FactSet, demonstrating surprising resilience in the face of persistent inflation, global supply chain constraints and geopolitical tensions.</p><p>Here are seven companies reporting earnings the week of March 7.</p><ul><li><b>Dick’s Sporting Goods</b>(NYSE:<b><u>DKS</u></b>)</li><li><b>Petco</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>WOOF</u></b>)</li><li><b>Oracle</b>(NYSE:<b><u>ORCL</u></b>)</li><li><b>CrowdStrike</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CRWD</u></b>)</li><li><b>Campbell Soup</b>(NYSE:<b><u>CPB</u></b>)</li><li><b>Rivian Automotive</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>RIVN</u></b>)</li><li><b>DocuSign</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>DOCU</u></b>)</li></ul><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS)</p><p>Shares of America’ biggest sporting goods retailer have been holding up better than most areas of the market this year. DKS stock is down about 5% so far, compared to a decline of nearly 10% for the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, over the past 12-months, Dick’s share price has gained over 50% to reach its current level of $109.61. The stock has been helped by strong earnings as the economy emerged from Covid-19 lockdowns.</p><p>Despite its run higher over the last year, DKS stock still looks modestly valued with a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.96, which is lower than the industry average of nearly 11 among peer retailers.</p><p>For its fourth-quarter numbers, analysts forecast that the company will report earnings per share (EPS) of $3.39, up 40% from a year ago. Revenue is projected to come in at $3.31 billion, up 6% from a year earlier. DKS stock has risen 6% in the week leading up to its earnings release, suggesting that investors are expecting the company to beat expectations.</p><p>Petco (WOOF)</p><p>Are pet owners continuing to splurge on their beloved cats, dogs and parakeets? We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.</p><p>The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020. Wall Street will be watching to see if the retailer of pet food, toys and supplies has been able to maintain the momentum. Analysts have forecast Petco to report earnings per share (EPS) of $0.25 on revenue of $1.49 billion for Q4.</p><p>While the company’s sales boomed during the pandemic when people were sheltering in place at home with their beloved pets, sentiment towards WOOF stock has cooled off in recent months as the economy reopens and people begin interacting with other humans more. In the last year, Petco’s share price has pulled back 14% to $17.80. That includes a 10% decline so far this year.</p><p>In an effort to rebound, the company has been adding veterinary hospitals to its stores, with 172 now in operation. Thevet business has been Petco’s fastest-growing segment, expanding an annualized 28% in the previous third quarter.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: Oracle (ORCL)</p><p>Legacy software company Oracle reports its Q4 numbers on March 9 and the company’s results could ripple through the tech sector.</p><p>Wall Street is calling for Santa Clara, California-based Oracle to report EPS of $1.18 on revenue of $10.51 billion. The company’s shares have been under pressure lately as it integrates recently acquired digital medical records business <b>Cerner</b>(NASDAQ:<b><u>CERN</u></b>), which Oracle bought for $28 billion.</p><p>ORCL stock is down 12% year-to-date, but remains up 15% over the last year at its current share price of $76.82.</p><p>Beyond the Cerner acquisition, Oracle has been aggressively growing its cloud software business. As written by <i>the Motley Fool,</i> in the previous third quarter, Oracle reported a “6% rise in cloud services and license support revenue, to $7.6 billion, and a 13% jump in cloud license and on-premise license revenue, to $1.2 billion.” Wall Street applauded these numbers and seems to like that the company is increasingly focusing its efforts on cloud software and related applications. The company’s cloud revenue is forecast to exceed $10 billion this year.</p><p>CrowdStrike (CRWD)</p><p>Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has been mentioned a lot since Russia invaded Ukraine and the threat of cyber warfare intensified around the world. Indeed, CRWD stock has increased more than 10% since Russia launched its attack on neighboring Ukraine.</p><p>The gains have been welcomed by shareholders who have had to watch CrowdStrike’s share price crater in recent months. CrowdStrike’s stock is now down nearly 39% from a peak of $298.48 reached last November. However, the stock has recovered some to now trade at $180.02 a share.</p><p>For the fourth quarter, analysts expect CrowdStrike to report EPS of $0.20 on revenue of $410.91 million.</p><p>Key to the company’s success will be its ability to continue growing its customer base, something it has executed well on over the past few years. Today, 63 of Fortune 100 companies and 14 of the top 20 banks in America deploy CrowdStrike cybersecurity products to protect themselves from cyber threats. And those threats are only growing with the current geopolitical instability, raising demand for CrowdStrike’s products and services.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: Campbell Soup (CPB)</p><p>Now for something warm and comforting. Camden, New Jersey-based Campbell Soup reports its fourth quarter results on March 9 and better-than-expected results might help to get the company’s stock moving higher. Over the past year, CPB shares have been essentially flat(down a slight 0.33%). Year-to-date, the stock is up 5% at $45.65 a share.</p><p>While the company and its stock got a boost at the depths of the pandemic as consumers stocked up on its soup and snack products, those gains have moderated over the last six months.</p><p>Indeed, Wall Street is expecting the maker of soup, Pepperidge Farm cookies and V8 tomato juice to post quarterly earnings of $0.68 per share for the fourth quarter, which would represent a year-over-year decline of -19%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to come in at $2.21 billion, down 2.8% from a year earlier. Part of the decline is due to some tough comparables Campbell Soup is facing from 2020 when its sales were spiking as people were locked down at home during the pandemic.</p><p>Rivian Automotive (RIVN)</p><p>Not much has been going right for the stock of electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive lately. Year-to-date, RIVN stock is down 55% at $46.70 a share. The stock is now down 73% from $179.47 a share reached shortly after the company went public last November.</p><p>It’s been blunder after blunder for Rivian since. The company’s most recent misstep was announcing a $12,000 price increase on its electric pick-up trucks and SUVs that had already been ordered by consumers.</p><p>Rivian was forced to cancel the planned price increase after a swift backlash from consumers and the media. The company said it planned to raise the prices on about 70,000 preorders it received to help offset the inflationary increases it is seeing with the parts and components it needs to build its electric vehicles. However, consumers were having none of it.</p><p>Hopefully, Rivian can right its ship when it reports its Q4 results. Analysts are looking for the company to report negative EPS of -$1.72 on revenue of $60 million.</p><p>Earnings Reports Next Week: DocuSign (DOCU)</p><p>DOCU stock was one of the main beneficiaries of the pandemic lockdowns, with its share price rising over 250% to an all-time high of just under $315 a share. The company’s stock has also been one of the most impacted by the reopening trade. In the last six months, DocuSign’s share price has declined 67% to now trade at $102.67. The San Francisco-based company that specializes in the management of electronic documents and signatures has been pulled down along with other richly valued tech stocks tied to the pandemic.</p><p>Some analysts say the selloff has been overdone and point to the fact that DocuSign is now a global leader in the e-signature sector with specialized software products and improving margins.</p><p>The company’s operating margins are forecast to come in at about 18% in the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 8% at the end of 2020.

With 95% of S&P 500 companies having reported results for the fourth quarter of 2021, the season for earnings reports is coming to a conclusion. We’re just about at junior mining companies and biopharmaceutical start-ups.However, there are still a handful of companies left to issue their Q4 prints that have the potential to move stocks in their respective sectors if not the broader market. To date, more than three-quarters (76%) of S&P 500 companies have reported better-than-expected earnings for the final three months of last year, according to FactSet, demonstrating surprising resilience in the face of persistent inflation, global supply chain constraints and geopolitical tensions.Here are seven companies reporting earnings the week of March 7.Dick’s Sporting Goods(NYSE:DKS)Petco(NASDAQ:WOOF)Oracle(NYSE:ORCL)CrowdStrike(NASDAQ:CRWD)Campbell Soup(NYSE:CPB)Rivian Automotive(NASDAQ:RIVN)DocuSign(NASDAQ:DOCU)Earnings Reports Next Week: Dick’s Sporting Goods (DKS)Shares of America’ biggest sporting goods retailer have been holding up better than most areas of the market this year. DKS stock is down about 5% so far, compared to a decline of nearly 10% for the benchmark S&P 500 index. However, over the past 12-months, Dick’s share price has gained over 50% to reach its current level of $109.61. The stock has been helped by strong earnings as the economy emerged from Covid-19 lockdowns.Despite its run higher over the last year, DKS stock still looks modestly valued with a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.96, which is lower than the industry average of nearly 11 among peer retailers.For its fourth-quarter numbers, analysts forecast that the company will report earnings per share (EPS) of $3.39, up 40% from a year ago. Revenue is projected to come in at $3.31 billion, up 6% from a year earlier. DKS stock has risen 6% in the week leading up to its earnings release, suggesting that investors are expecting the company to beat expectations.Petco (WOOF)Are pet owners continuing to splurge on their beloved cats, dogs and parakeets? We’ll get an idea when San Diego-based Petco reports its fourth-quarter results on Mar. 7.The company has set a high bar for itself to jump, having increased its sales growth from 1% before the pandemic to 27% at the end of 2020. Wall Street will be watching to see if the retailer of pet food, toys and supplies has been able to maintain the momentum. Analysts have forecast Petco to report earnings per share (EPS) of $0.25 on revenue of $1.49 billion for Q4.While the company’s sales boomed during the pandemic when people were sheltering in place at home with their beloved pets, sentiment towards WOOF stock has cooled off in recent months as the economy reopens and people begin interacting with other humans more. In the last year, Petco’s share price has pulled back 14% to $17.80. That includes a 10% decline so far this year.In an effort to rebound, the company has been adding veterinary hospitals to its stores, with 172 now in operation. Thevet business has been Petco’s fastest-growing segment, expanding an annualized 28% in the previous third quarter.Earnings Reports Next Week: Oracle (ORCL)Legacy software company Oracle reports its Q4 numbers on March 9 and the company’s results could ripple through the tech sector.Wall Street is calling for Santa Clara, California-based Oracle to report EPS of $1.18 on revenue of $10.51 billion. The company’s shares have been under pressure lately as it integrates recently acquired digital medical records business Cerner(NASDAQ:CERN), which Oracle bought for $28 billion.ORCL stock is down 12% year-to-date, but remains up 15% over the last year at its current share price of $76.82.Beyond the Cerner acquisition, Oracle has been aggressively growing its cloud software business. As written by the Motley Fool, in the previous third quarter, Oracle reported a “6% rise in cloud services and license support revenue, to $7.6 billion, and a 13% jump in cloud license and on-premise license revenue, to $1.2 billion.” Wall Street applauded these numbers and seems to like that the company is increasingly focusing its efforts on cloud software and related applications. The company’s cloud revenue is forecast to exceed $10 billion this year.CrowdStrike (CRWD)Cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has been mentioned a lot since Russia invaded Ukraine and the threat of cyber warfare intensified around the world. Indeed, CRWD stock has increased more than 10% since Russia launched its attack on neighboring Ukraine.The gains have been welcomed by shareholders who have had to watch CrowdStrike’s share price crater in recent months. CrowdStrike’s stock is now down nearly 39% from a peak of $298.48 reached last November. However, the stock has recovered some to now trade at $180.02 a share.For the fourth quarter, analysts expect CrowdStrike to report EPS of $0.20 on revenue of $410.91 million.Key to the company’s success will be its ability to continue growing its customer base, something it has executed well on over the past few years. Today, 63 of Fortune 100 companies and 14 of the top 20 banks in America deploy CrowdStrike cybersecurity products to protect themselves from cyber threats. And those threats are only growing with the current geopolitical instability, raising demand for CrowdStrike’s products and services.Earnings Reports Next Week: Campbell Soup (CPB)Now for something warm and comforting. Camden, New Jersey-based Campbell Soup reports its fourth quarter results on March 9 and better-than-expected results might help to get the company’s stock moving higher. Over the past year, CPB shares have been essentially flat(down a slight 0.33%). Year-to-date, the stock is up 5% at $45.65 a share.While the company and its stock got a boost at the depths of the pandemic as consumers stocked up on its soup and snack products, those gains have moderated over the last six months.Indeed, Wall Street is expecting the maker of soup, Pepperidge Farm cookies and V8 tomato juice to post quarterly earnings of $0.68 per share for the fourth quarter, which would represent a year-over-year decline of -19%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to come in at $2.21 billion, down 2.8% from a year earlier. Part of the decline is due to some tough comparables Campbell Soup is facing from 2020 when its sales were spiking as people were locked down at home during the pandemic.Rivian Automotive (RIVN)Not much has been going right for the stock of electric vehicle maker Rivian Automotive lately. Year-to-date, RIVN stock is down 55% at $46.70 a share. The stock is now down 73% from $179.47 a share reached shortly after the company went public last November.It’s been blunder after blunder for Rivian since. The company’s most recent misstep was announcing a $12,000 price increase on its electric pick-up trucks and SUVs that had already been ordered by consumers.Rivian was forced to cancel the planned price increase after a swift backlash from consumers and the media. The company said it planned to raise the prices on about 70,000 preorders it received to help offset the inflationary increases it is seeing with the parts and components it needs to build its electric vehicles. However, consumers were having none of it.Hopefully, Rivian can right its ship when it reports its Q4 results. Analysts are looking for the company to report negative EPS of -$1.72 on revenue of $60 million.Earnings Reports Next Week: DocuSign (DOCU)DOCU stock was one of the main beneficiaries of the pandemic lockdowns, with its share price rising over 250% to an all-time high of just under $315 a share. The company’s stock has also been one of the most impacted by the reopening trade. In the last six months, DocuSign’s share price has declined 67% to now trade at $102.67. The San Francisco-based company that specializes in the management of electronic documents and signatures has been pulled down along with other richly valued tech stocks tied to the pandemic.Some analysts say the selloff has been overdone and point to the fact that DocuSign is now a global leader in the e-signature sector with specialized software products and improving margins.The company’s operating margins are forecast to come in at about 18% in the fourth quarter of 2021, up from 8% at the end of 2020. For the entire fourth quarter, DocuSign is forecast to report EPS of $0.47 on revenues of $561.47 million. Wall Street will be looking for signs that DocuSign can sustain its growth long-term once the pandemic is behind us for good.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":163,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9094113747,"gmtCreate":1645078178322,"gmtModify":1676533995091,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3572907325602131","authorIdStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9094113747","repostId":"1170326229","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1170326229","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1645062276,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1170326229?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-02-17 09:44","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla Stock Can Survive and Thrive Even Without Cheap Cars","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1170326229","media":"InvestorPlace","summary":"Tesla(NASDAQ:TSLA) continues to come out on top, even when Wall Street wants to knock it down.

Lower-bound rates for government debt had raised questions about the outlook for the U.S. economy in the recovery from the pandemic.

Why Wall Street Thinks a Pullback Is Coming.","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1105074635","media":"Barrons","summary":"S&P 500 index funds will tumble by Christmas, one Wall Street strategist predicts. Not necessarily, ","content":"<p>S&P 500 index funds will tumble by Christmas, one Wall Street strategist predicts. Not necessarily, says another—but they’ll lose money over the next decade. I can’t decide whether to panic or just sulk.</p>\n<p>The index decides the fate of more than $5 trillion in linked investor assets. My only exposure is in my retirement, joint, college, healthcare, and, come to think of it, all other investment accounts. I don’t think my Chipotle Rewards account is affected, but I haven’t read the small print.</p>\n<p>The concern, of course, is that S&P 500 trackers have had it too good for too long. The index has returned 376% over the past decade, or close to 17% a year, compounded. Among active managers tasked with beating the index, four out of five failed during the 10 years through 2020.</p>\n<p>For Bogleheads, as devotees of the late Vanguard founder and indexing pioneer John Bogle call themselves, the explanation is simple: Stock-picking is futile. But if that’s so, the typical active manager should do no better or worse than indexes on underlying stock performance, and underperform only to the extent he or she charges extra fees. In fact, they have trailed over 10 years by an average of 2.5% a year. Stinking that badly is a skill of its own—one that theoretically shouldn’t exist.</p>\n<p>Another explanation is that the S&P 500’s popularity has created its own tailwind. “Flows into index funds raise the prices of large stocks,” conclude researchers from Michigan State University, the London School of Economics, and the University of California, Irvine,in a working paper that has been circulating since late last year. By now, you’ve heard that five companies — Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet,Amazon.com,and Facebook—combined for one-quarter of the S&P 500’s market value. But all are still growing nicely, so why worry now?</p>\n<p>This past Tuesday, Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, predicted a 10% to 15% slide for the S&P 500 before year’s end, but she says that doesn’t make her bearish. She points out that most 12-month stretches contain a big pullback for the index, but that we haven’t had one since March 2020. Tech giants, she has noticed, have lately traded hand-in-hand with Treasuries, suggesting that investors have come to view them as havens.</p>\n<p>“Owning the index today in a global context is a relatively defensive position, and we believe that it’s time to play offense,” she says.</p>\n<p>In Shalett’s view, interest rates will rise as global economies rebound, putting pressure on stock valuations. She predicts upside earnings surprises and stock outperformance for cyclical sectors like financials, industrials, energy, and materials, and for some pockets of consumer services and healthcare. “We’re very excited about buying a lot of different stocks,” she says. “We’re just not super-psyched about owning the index.”</p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Bank of America Securities issued a similarly mixed signal. It raised its year-end S&P 500 target from 3800 all the way to 4250, which sounds optimistic. But it referred to the change as a mark to market—something typically done obligingly by accountants, not enthusiastically by forecasters. Also, the new target implies a decline of 5% or so from recent levels. Indexers have already made an easy 20% this year, so why sweat a holiday haircut? Because the bank is also predicting a 10-year average loss in the index of 0.8% a year.</p>\n<p>It’s devilishly difficult to predict short-term stock market returns. I tend to follow such forecasts more for the rationales than the targets. But long-term returns might be more closely linked than short-term ones to starting valuations, making forecasting more feasible. BofA says one measure has predicted about 80% of 10-year returns for the S&P 500 since 1987: the ratio of the index’s price to what the bank calls its normalized earnings for the past 12 months. A typical reading is 19. The latest is 29.

Not necessarily, says another—but they’ll lose money over the next decade. I can’t decide whether to panic or just sulk.\nThe index decides the fate of more than $5 trillion in linked investor assets. My only exposure is in my retirement, joint, college, healthcare, and, come to think of it, all other investment accounts. I don’t think my Chipotle Rewards account is affected, but I haven’t read the small print.\nThe concern, of course, is that S&P 500 trackers have had it too good for too long. The index has returned 376% over the past decade, or close to 17% a year, compounded. Among active managers tasked with beating the index, four out of five failed during the 10 years through 2020.\nFor Bogleheads, as devotees of the late Vanguard founder and indexing pioneer John Bogle call themselves, the explanation is simple: Stock-picking is futile. But if that’s so, the typical active manager should do no better or worse than indexes on underlying stock performance, and underperform only to the extent he or she charges extra fees. In fact, they have trailed over 10 years by an average of 2.5% a year. Stinking that badly is a skill of its own—one that theoretically shouldn’t exist.\nAnother explanation is that the S&P 500’s popularity has created its own tailwind. “Flows into index funds raise the prices of large stocks,” conclude researchers from Michigan State University, the London School of Economics, and the University of California, Irvine,in a working paper that has been circulating since late last year. By now, you’ve heard that five companies — Apple,Microsoft,Alphabet,Amazon.com,and Facebook—combined for one-quarter of the S&P 500’s market value. But all are still growing nicely, so why worry now?\nThis past Tuesday, Lisa Shalett, chief investment officer at Morgan Stanley Wealth Management, predicted a 10% to 15% slide for the S&P 500 before year’s end, but she says that doesn’t make her bearish. She points out that most 12-month stretches contain a big pullback for the index, but that we haven’t had one since March 2020. Tech giants, she has noticed, have lately traded hand-in-hand with Treasuries, suggesting that investors have come to view them as havens.\n“Owning the index today in a global context is a relatively defensive position, and we believe that it’s time to play offense,” she says.\nIn Shalett’s view, interest rates will rise as global economies rebound, putting pressure on stock valuations. She predicts upside earnings surprises and stock outperformance for cyclical sectors like financials, industrials, energy, and materials, and for some pockets of consumer services and healthcare. “We’re very excited about buying a lot of different stocks,” she says. “We’re just not super-psyched about owning the index.”\nOn Wednesday, Bank of America Securities issued a similarly mixed signal. It raised its year-end S&P 500 target from 3800 all the way to 4250, which sounds optimistic. But it referred to the change as a mark to market—something typically done obligingly by accountants, not enthusiastically by forecasters. Also, the new target implies a decline of 5% or so from recent levels. Indexers have already made an easy 20% this year, so why sweat a holiday haircut? Because the bank is also predicting a 10-year average loss in the index of 0.8% a year.\nIt’s devilishly difficult to predict short-term stock market returns. I tend to follow such forecasts more for the rationales than the targets. But long-term returns might be more closely linked than short-term ones to starting valuations, making forecasting more feasible. BofA says one measure has predicted about 80% of 10-year returns for the S&P 500 since 1987: the ratio of the index’s price to what the bank calls its normalized earnings for the past 12 months. A typical reading is 19. The latest is 29. That has nudged the model’s predicted 10-year return below zero for the first time since 1999.\nBofA’s prescription is to buy dividend-growers and inflation beneficiaries like energy, financials, and materials. It also likes small-cap stocks, which it says are more closely tied than large-caps to U.S. economic growth, and have valuations that point to positive 10-year returns.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":44,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":185061817,"gmtCreate":1623627484639,"gmtModify":1704207084941,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572907325602131","idStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good","listText":"Good","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":5,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/185061817","repostId":"1132051258","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1132051258","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1623625464,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1132051258?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-06-14 07:04","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Musk says Tesla will accept bitcoin again as crypto miners use more clean energy","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1132051258","media":"CNBC","summary":"Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Sunday said the company will resume bitcoin transactions once it confirms there is reasonable clean energy usage by miners.“When there’s confirmation of reasonable clean energy usage by miners with positive future trend, Tesla will resume allowing Bitcoin transactions,” Musk wrote in a tweet.The electric-car maker halted car purchases with bitcoin in mid-May due to concerns over how mining contributes to climate change.Musk was reacting to comments from Magda Wierzycka, C","content":"<div>\n<p>KEY POINTS\n\nTesla CEO Elon Musk on Sunday said the company will resume bitcoin transactions once it confirms there is reasonable clean energy usage by miners.\n“When there’s confirmation of reasonable ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2021/06/13/musk-tesla-will-accept-bitcoin-when-miners-use-clean-energy.html\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n","source":"cnbc_highlight","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

During the first quarter,Tesla sold $272 million worth of “digital assets,”which helped it reduce operating losses by $101 million, the company revealed in its earnings statement.\nMusk’s comments on social media about cryptocurrency often send prices soaring or plummeting, but appeared to have little effect Sunday. Bitcoin was trading around $37,442, according to Coindesk, at around 2:30 pm ET, up more than 4% on the day.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":229,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":379111505,"gmtCreate":1618705471307,"gmtModify":1704714112210,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572907325602131","idStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Slowly recover","listText":"Slowly recover","text":"Slowly recover","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":4,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/379111505","repostId":"1155509413","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1155509413","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Stock Market Quotes, Business News, Financial News, Trading Ideas, and Stock Research by Professionals","home_visible":0,"media_name":"Benzinga","id":"1052270027","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d08bf7808052c0ca9deb4e944cae32aa"},"pubTimestamp":1618587639,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1155509413?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-04-16 23:40","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Taiwan's Drought Poses Additional Threat To Looming Global Chip Crisis: WSJ","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1155509413","media":"Benzinga","summary":"Taiwan’s severe drought could aggravate the ongoing global chip crisis as semiconductor producers required a massive water supply to clean the wafer base, etch patterns, polish layers and rinse components throughout the manufacturing process, the Wall Street Journal reports.Taiwan’s semiconductor wafer-fabrication factories accounted for two-thirds of the global manufacturing capacity.

But there are also some significant hurdles that the company faces that could slow down the company's growth story.First, while Nio's deliveries have accelerated over the past few years, the company is facing a slowdown right now. The company said in a statement in December that it faced delivery and production challenges because of the recent coronavirus outbreak in China.As a result, the company's deliveries of 40,000 vehicles for the fourth quarter were below management's original estimates of between 43,000 to 48,000 vehicles.An economic slowdown would be problematic for Nio and other automakers, as consumers may be inclined to put off large purchases until the economy rebounds.Some EV makers, including Tesla, have already had to cut vehicle prices in China to spur demand.Making matters worse, Nio's gross margins are decreasing. In the third quarter Nio's gross margins fell to 13.3%, down from 20.3% in 2021 in the year-ago quarter.An increase in battery costs, a decrease in government automotive credits, and an increase in investments all weighed down on Nio's margins.Nio stock isn't a buy right nowNio's stock may look cheap right now with the company's price-to-sales ratio of 2.7, but for all of the reasons listed above I'd be hesitant to buy Nio stock right now.Nio is still unprofitable, and with gross margins moving in the wrong direction there's still more uncertainty for Nio ahead.All of this makes Nio a risky investment right now, and one that I think investors should avoid.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":388,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":189524946,"gmtCreate":1623282638285,"gmtModify":1704199892923,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572907325602131","idStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Stay long guys ??","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Stay long guys ??","text":"$Senseonics(SENS)$Stay long guys ??","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":9,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/189524946","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":145,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":114631729,"gmtCreate":1623071511861,"gmtModify":1704195417088,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572907325602131","idStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Another good run today!!","listText":"<a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/SENS\">$Senseonics(SENS)$</a>Another good run today!!","text":"$Senseonics(SENS)$Another good run today!!","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":7,"commentSize":1,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/114631729","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1109,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":105363008,"gmtCreate":1620270529204,"gmtModify":1704341122536,"author":{"id":"3572907325602131","authorId":"3572907325602131","name":"Xkuanx","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e90936aad3336fa7f5cc5bc70cbab1fc","crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"3572907325602131","idStr":"3572907325602131"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Good ","listText":"Good ","text":"Good","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":3,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/105363008","repostId":"1176324368","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1176324368","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1620270393,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1176324368?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-05-06 11:06","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Cathie Wood continues to add shares of Skillz and Palantir","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1176324368","media":"seeking alpha","summary":"Cathie Wood's ARK Invest continues to add shares of Skillz Inc.(NYSE:SKLZ)and Palantir Technologies ","content":"<ul><li>Cathie Wood's ARK Invest continues to add shares of Skillz Inc.(NYSE:SKLZ)and Palantir Technologies Inc.(NYSE:PLTR)to their actively managed exchange-traded funds.
