1:47 PM Baseband chipmakers Spreadtrum (SPRD -6.3%), Marvell (MRVL -1.9%), and Sequans (SQNS -1%) are all off. Chinese media reports only 1 of 9 companies taking part in government tests for 4G TD-LTE baseband chips - a group including the aforementioned names - fully met government standards in a test. China Mobile is plotting a commercial TD-LTE launch, but its timing depends on approval by a government that may chose to bide its time in so that more subscribers are racked up for CHL's 3G network, which relies on home-grown TD-SCDMA tech.

johnson. For the last few months, I have been buying on the dips and selling on the highs and I have done very well since sprd had been running to near 20 and falling back to near 17 on a fairly consistance pattern.

I did however get caught a bit as I held through the earnings report where I had bought in the 19s and then came the dive. I would have been ok except in the recovery, I sold a bit too quickly because I felt the stock would again hit highs in the 18s. The highs just happened to be higher (near 20) than I thought they would be.

I've regained most from my high point other than maybe down 30 to 40 cents which can be easily recovered unless sprd takes a dive as I'm currently holding quite a few shares in the 18s. This one has been good to me other than the bad earnings spill. I am thinking about going for a longer hold on half my shares and trading the other half just in case this one runs to the 20s.

Hope you do very well and if you decide to trade a bit, best of luck on hitting the highs. Maybe hold some longs just in case. .. nic

10:27 AM Spreadtrum (SPRD -1.7%) trades lower after receiving a downgrade to Neutral from Chardan Capital; the firm cites power amplifier shortages (presumably for TD-SCDMA 3G devices) and growing competitive pressures. Power amplifier vendor RF Micro Devices (RFMD -2%), which has decent Chinese exposure, is also lower. It was only a week ago that Avian issued a bullish note on Spreadtrum that touted the chipmaker's design win activity.

UPDATE 2-Apple share of China smartphone mkt almost halved in Q2 - IDC

4:55 AM 8/24/2012 - Reuters

* Apple Q2 China smartphone mkt share 10 pct vs 19 pct in Q1

* Samsung still leads, with 19 pct mkt share vs 21 pct in Q1

* Chinese brands - Lenovo, ZTE - gain traction - IDC

* Smartphones took 51 pct of overall mobile mkt in Q2 - IDC

By Lee Chyen Yee

Aug 24 (Reuters) - Apple Inc's share of China's smartphone market almost halved to 10 percent in April-June as buyers waited for the next iPhone model - expected later this year - or switched brands, data from industry research firm IDC showed on Friday.

China, Apple's second-largest market, is set to overtake the United States as the world's biggest smartphone market this year, with demand driven by generous handset subsidies offered by the three main carriers, increasingly tech-savvy consumers and more feature-packed and affordable products.

For the first time, smartphone shipments in China overtook feature phones in the second quarter, with local brands Lenovo Group Ltd and ZTE Corp pushing Apple to fourth place from second, the IDC data showed.

Total April-June smartphone shipments rose to 44 million, accounting for 51 percent of China's total mobile shipments of 87 million, IDC said.

"There are two things in play," said IDC analyst TZ Wong, referring to Apple's drop in ranking and market share. "One is seasonal, people know the new phone is coming. And the second is that the alternatives are becoming much more attractive than a year ago. The iPhone didn't change much over the year."

South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co Ltd retained its lead in the Chinese smartphone market with a share of 19 percent, though this was down from 21 percent in the previous quarter, according to the IDC data.

Lenovo, the world's No.2 vendor of personal computers which makes the LePhone, climbed to second place and increased its China market share to 11 percent from a single-digit percentage in the first quarter when it was ranked 7th, the data showed. Local rival Huawei Technologies Co Ltd ranked fifth.

Data from Gartner, another research firm, showed Apple's market share fell to 12 percent in the second quarter from 17 percent in the previous three months, though it kept its No.2 ranking, according to a report by Nomura Securities.

CHIPS FOR CHINA

U.S. chipmakers such as Qualcomm Inc have been trying to capture a larger slice of a booming market that has long been dominated by Taiwan's Mediatek Inc and China's Spreadtrum Communications Inc, by offering chipsets and solutions catered to Chinese vendors.

Recently launched Chinese smartphones packed with Qualcomm's Snapdragon chips include Huawei's G330D and Xiaomi Technology's MI2.

"It's such an important market because of the volume and the growth rate, which are so attractive for chipset vendors ... so we're seeing a lot of competition," said James Shen, Qualcomm's vice president for business development.

In the overall mobile phone market in China, which includes smartphones and feature phones, Samsung, Nokia and ZTE top the rankings for the second quarter, IDC said.

IDC's Wong said it was inevitable that Chinese brands would gradually gain more share due to their aggressive marketing and close ties with local carriers China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom.

"In the mid- to long-term, it's very possible they will start to dominate four of the top five (rankings), leaving Samsung as the only one standing. At that point, even Samsung will start to feel the pressure."

Marvell (MRVL) is also a major rival in the TD-SCDMA market. The report comes as Spreadtrum announces a design win for a Huawei phone. SEEKING ALPHA

ontoprofit. It's also very likely muddy, by taking a short position and publicising an "open letter" to the board of sprd will help muddy achieve their goal. A very self severing letter.

Now notice the irony. We are writing you an open letter so that our concerns and hopefully your responses are transparent to SPRD shareholders. Really!!!! Muddy could give a crap about shareholders. They're interested in driving the share price down.

Maybe work, maybe not. Hopefully, you weren't foolish enough to short them too after reading that. They've came up with this "phoney baloney" transparent issue about financials previously. Rotten piece of crap designed for improving ones short position only, imo. .. nic

6/19/2012 10:51 AM EDT


SHANGHAI -- Spreadtrum Communications, Inc. announced Tuesday (June 19th) that the company’s TD-SCDMA baseband modem, the SC8803G, and its RF transceiver, the SR3200, are designed into Samsung's latest TD-SCDMA smartphone – Galaxy S III(GT-I9308). The Samsung model, featuring TD-SCDMA modem as required by China Mobile – is shipping now.

Spreadtrum pulled off a huge turnaround in 2011, by leveraging its lead in the TD-SCDMA market in China.

In 2011, the company made $674 million in revenue, 95 percent increase over the previous year. Spreadtrum is expecting revenues to grow to more than $700 million this year.

In a recent interview with EE Times, Leo Li, president and CEO of Spreadtrum, said that Spreadtrum has grabbed five design wins among six TD-SCDMA smartphone models selected by China Mobile in May, 2012. A β€œMediaTek chip got designed into only one model,” noted Li, referring to its Taiwan chip rival.
