Cheuvreux a relevé son avis sur STMicroelectronics de « sous-performance » à « surperformance », avec un objectif de cours de 7,3 euros.
« We upgrade STMicroelectronics to 2/Outperform to reflect its much improved risk/reward profile and lift our target price from EUR6 to EUR7.3. STM is the last value play in EU semis. Its price level is depressed, amid huge losses in Wireless. However, moredrastic-than-ever restructuring plans for ST-Ericsson, which STM is expected to announce soon, will likely reverse the trend. We believe STM will forge a partnership for Wireless in the near future, thereby paving the way for a change in the JV’s ownership structure and eliminating its USD4bn negative implied value. »
