...Friday 29 June 2007 Change of recommendation Reliance Industries Earnings to provide a reality check We downgrade RIL to Sell with a target price of Rs1,300. We believe consensus valuation of its E&P assets is too aggressive.

...HP – STRONG BUY Equity Research • IT • 19 August 2011 • Jyske Markets Accounts This is a case recommendation. The company will be included in our equityresearch universe as long as it holds price potential justifying a BUY recommendation. When this is no longer the case, we will discontinue our coverage although our recommendation is ACCUMULATE, REDUCE or SELL. HP price fall is overdone We restate our STRONG BUY recommendation for HP and see yesterday’s dramatic price fall as an attractive opportunity to buy. This particularly applies to investors who are patient enough to wait for better market conditions/macro-economic improvement. HP lowers its outlook: as feared, HP (like Dell (STRONG BUY) earlier in the week) last night downgraded its full-year outlook. It was, however, a relatively moderate downgrade since the sales forecast was lowered by 1.6% and EPS by 3%. Whereas HP previously guided 2011 sales and EPS at USD 129bn-130bn and USD 5.0, respectively, HP now guides USD 127.2bn-127.6bn and USD 4.82-4.86, respectively. HP’s forecast is still a shade better than we had estimated (USD 127.6bn and USD 4.7). The reduced forecast reflects a sluggish willingness to buy among private business customers and that corporate customers are now more hesitant due to the rising macro-economic uncertainty. For Q4, HP guides sales at USD 31.1bn-32.5bn as well as Non-GAAP EPS of USD 1.12-1.16 compared with consensus at USD 33.9bn and USD 1.30, respectively. In addition, HP announced...

We should rather wait for regulatory uncertainty to get over. Key Highlights Tariff rates: We see strong likelihood for tariff hike across the board after auction is completed in August 2012 as current price of spectrum and prevalent low tariff make the business unviable. Market share: Since small operators have shifted their focus on cash conservation and margin improvement, incremental market share of top three players have increased considerably. Idea ranks second after Airtel in terms of market share of new subscribers addition. Negativity: Recently telecom players have been going through uncertain times due to pressure from different corners: regulatory, operationally and financially. We believe this negativity has already been accounted in current price. However, sensitivity to Idea’s balance sheet of expected cash outflow is high due to smaller balance sheet size...
