Nat'l Semiconductor Kept a Buy
National Semiconductor Corp. (NSM - Analyst Report) is an OEM [original equipment manufacturer] of analog and mixed signal integrated circuits. February quarter results beat consensus expectations, on both the top and bottom lines.
Forward guidance is for a revenue decline of 5-10% in the next quarter. New higher-margin products continue to grow in the mix, and management has refocused R&D into areas that should sustain margins.
However, similar to others in the analog space, National was negatively impacted by the recession. We are reiterating our Buy rating on NSM shares.
