		<description><![CDATA[Despite the macroeconomic headwinds, Siemens AG (SI) reported relatively modest results for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 with a net income of $1.57 billion (€1.21 billion) or $1.84 per share (€1.42) compared to $1.79 billion (€1.38 billion) or $2.02 per share (€1.56) in the year-earlier quarter. Although earnings decreased on a year-over-year basis, it exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. Total revenue in the reported quarter increased 2% year over year to $23.51 billion (€18.13 billion), primarily due to 4% year-over-year growth in the emerging markets accounting for 33% of the total revenue for the quarter. Reported revenue surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $23.09 billion. However, broader macroeconomic uncertainties took its toll as orders declined 3% year over year to $24.82 billion (€19.14 billion). The book-to-bill ]]></description>

The Polish entity has purchased 49 such devices to equip its fleet of ambulances. The innovative AutoPulse Plus pumps enables rescuers to defibrillate without stopping chest compressions for defibrillation. WSPR Szczecin selected the device based on positive user experience following a 12-month evaluation. The Massachusetts-based company also noted that WSPR Szczecin has initiated a program to upgrade to its new E Series Monitor/Defibrillator from the existing M Series platform. The E Series connects directly to AutoPulse Plus, which enables real-time integrated operation of these devices, thereby allowing consistent, uninterrupted chest compressions with timed shock delivery.

		<description><![CDATA[In the face of high competition, the Dutch company Royal Philips Electronics NV (PHG) got approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to sell a combination scanner that performs both positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging. The scanner is expected to accelerate imaging time for cancer patients, as PET identifies cancer cells as it absorbs chemical tracers. The magnetic resonance imaging will be helpful to identify the surrounding tissue. In addition, the magnetic imaging is also capable of scanning bone and combining systems in order to improve the diagnosis of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. The big advantage of this machine is that these diagnoses can be done at much lower radiation levels than X-rays. In addition, the new scanner is expected to deliver with quality and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are downgrading our recommendation on Koninklijke Philips Electronics (PHG) to Underperform with a $16 target price. The company had a weak second quarter with revenues declining 3.4% primarily due to lower license revenues and a decline at the Lifestyle Entertainment segment. Furthermore, the company posted a net loss of $1.9 billion during the recently concluded quarter due to a goodwill impairment charge of $2.0 billion. The net cash flow also declined significantly compared to the prior year, attributable to higher working capital outflow related to higher vendor payments. Our long-term Underperform recommendation on the ADRs indicates that they will perform below the broader U.S. equity market over the next six to twelve months. Our target price is $16.00 or 14.5X 2011 EPS, which is well within the historical range. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Justin Dove, Investment U Research Friday, August 5, 2011 Marc Lichtenfeld discussed Google Wallet and its implications for NXP Semiconductor (Nasdaq: NXPI) back in June. He noted the stock chart looked bad and that a break below $24 would signal a bearish double-top pattern. Well, it fell past $24 last Friday and has dropped all the way to the $18s. This fall was spurred by an announcement that NXP would trim its guidance for the rest of 2011. Demand for the Near-Field Communication (NFC) technology has been slower than the company expected. While NFC  technology is definitely going to be the future of payment… The big question is “When?” Delays in NFC Technology Adoption Abound There are some new developments that may further slow NFC technology from becoming a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In an attempt to solidify its Consumer Fund Services (CFS) business, Aetna Inc. (AET) has entered into an agreement to acquire Omaha, NE-based Payflex Holdings Inc. in a $202 million deal. The acquisition, which will see light in the second half of the year, will not be accretive to Aetna’s 2011 and 2012 earnings. However, it is likely to offer attractive returns over the longer term. Founded in 1987, Payflex has around 423 employees presently. PayFlex perfectly suits Aetna’s existing consumer-oriented product business, with the former’s business model focusing on web-based benefit administration for healthcare plan sponsors that offer consumer-based products like Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), and COBRA direct-billing services. Aetna is attracted towards PayFlex’s unique technology program called HealthHub, an ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mindray Medical International Limited (MR), a leading Chinese medical devices company, recently forged an agreement to take a controlling stake in Suzhou Hyssen Electronics Co. Ltd (&#8220;Hyssen&#8221;). The transaction will not affect Mindray’s financial results. The company did not reveal the terms of the deal. Hyssen, based in Suzhou, China, is a leader in automated urine sediment analyzers in the domestic market. Urine sediment, along with dry chemistry analysis, constitutes urinalysis. Urine sediment analysis is utilized to discover urinary tract and kidney diseases by analyzing bacteria and blood cells in urine samples. Urinalysis, in conjunction with biochemistry analysis and hematology, are the three most frequently used methodologies in the in-vitro diagnostic business. The urinalysis business, in China, was worth about $155 million in 2010, of which urine sediment analysis constituted ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Neutral recommendation on resuscitation devices maker ZOLL Medical (ZOLL). Revenues and earnings for second-quarter fiscal 2011 beat the Zacks Consensus Estimates driven by strong contributions from the Massachusetts-based company’s LifeVest and temperature management businesses, backed by healthy international growth. Revenues from ZOLL Medical’s North American hospital market clipped 2% year over year, as sales from its U.S. military business tumbled 17.5% in the quarter. The company’s North American pre-hospital market remains affected by a still weak capital spending backdrop with sales dipping 4% in the second quarter. ZOLL Medical’s flagship LifeVest business continues its strong momentum with revenues propelling 60% in the quarter. However, sales from its AutoPulse cardiac support pump tanked 34%, hit by tight budgets for equipment purchases in the emergency medical services (“EMS”) channel. ]]></description>

The approximate value of the agreements with GE is expected to be $500 million and the projects are expected to create more than 100 new jobs. The power plant expansion projects will add 1,680 megawatts of power to the grid and this is more than half of SEC’s planned annual increase in generation.

Boeing’s F/A-18 Super Hornet and Lockheed Martin’s F-16 Super Viper – both of which are powered by General Electric (GE) engines – lost out to two European airplanes that are still under consideration by the Indian military. GE Aviation was expecting to see a healthy order flow if either of the U.S. competitors was awarded the contract. General Electric has one of the best infrastructure franchises worldwide with solid organic growth rates, exposure to favorable secular trends and a large installed base supporting a growing annuity-like service business.

Propaq MD, which was approved in the U.S. in July 2010, is developed in collaboration with the Department of Defense and leading medical diagnostic devices maker Welch Allyn, assisted by grants from the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command. The Propaq M, a monitor-only version of the PropaqMD, was cleared in the U.S. in September 2010. It was also developed under the same collaboration. Both devices have been designed to specifically address the tough demands of battlefield medicine and meet an unprecedented number of military and international standards. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Massachusetts-based medical devices maker ZOLL Medical (ZOLL) recently began shipping a new version of its AED Plus devices for treating sudden cardiac arrest (“SCA”). This new version is fully compliant with the new American Heart Association (“AHA”) and European Resuscitation Council (“ERC”) guidelines issued in October 2010. SCA, an abrupt loss of cardiac function, is one of the major causes of unexpected deaths. Early defibrillation raises the chances of survival from just 5% to more than 50%. The key change in the new AHA and ERC guidelines is the recommendation for chest compressions that are at least 2 inches deep as opposed to between 1.5 and 2 inches required by the earlier guidelines (issued in 2005). Recent studies have shown significant improvement in survival in SCA victims who have received ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Resuscitation devices maker ZOLL Medical’s (ZOLL) popular LifeVest wearable defibrillator has reached another key milestone as it has been reportedly prescribed to over 35,000 patients at high risk of sudden cardiac arrest (“SCA”) by their physicians. The achievement underscores the sustained adoption of the device for treating this condition. SCA, an abrupt loss of cardiac function, is one of the major causes of unexpected deaths. According to the American Heart Association, more than 700 people die from this condition each day in the U.S. Early defibrillation raises the chance of survival from just 5% to over 50%. LifeVest is a lightweight device which is worn outside the body (rather than implanted in the chest) by patients at risk of SCA. The device continuously monitors the heart with electrodes (electric conductors) ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stroll down the lighting aisle at your local hardware store a few years ago and you’d have seen an array of incandescent screw-in bulbs and fluorescent tubes. But in December 2007, the U.S. Congress quietly set the wheels in motion for a major change to America’s lighting market – one worth roughly $100 billion a year. It passed the Energy Independence and Security Act, which mandates the end of most incandescent bulbs between 2012 and 2014. The reason for it is simple: Incandescents are energy hogs. Only 5% to 10% of the energy they consume becomes visible light. The rest is given off as useless heat. And given that lighting sucks up about 22% of the energy we use, you can see why much of that is wasted. You need ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Philips Healthcare, a division of Koninklijke Philips Electronics NV (PHG), has been awarded a $77.2 million contract to provide patient-monitoring systems for the U.S. Department of Defense. Philips will supply the DOD with the systems along with accessories, consumables and spare parts. The company will also provide training on the systems. The project is financed by the DOD’s Defense Logistics Agency, and the equipment will be utilized both by the armed forces as well as civilian agencies. The restructuring of its product portfolio to better position itself as a more-focused company in the healthcare, lighting and lifestyle markets is currently underway with several focused acquisitions and divestments in the most recent quarter. This bodes well for the company going forward. The company’s continued ability to increase cash flow by bringing ]]></description>

Revenues were $10.727 billion for the quarter. Comparable sales improved for a third consecutive quarter, returning to a level at par with the fourth quarter of 2008. The rebound in emerging markets where sales were up by 8% and a solid improvement in Western Europe were tempered by weaker albeit sequentially improving sales performance in North America. Currency-comparable equipment order intake improved for the third quarter in a row, rebounding to 7% growth in the reported quarter. Equipment orders outside the US ? which in value terms represent now over 60% for the total intake ? saw double digit growth, led by the very ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony Daltorio, Investment U Research Tuesday, January 19, 2010 Cowboy daredevils have their bucking bulls and broncos to ride. And thrill-seeking teenagers can strap themselves into rollercoaster’s with loops, corkscrews and 400-foot drops when they need a rush. But investors looking for the same intense up and down motions – and the charge of holding on for dear-life – can get their kicks from the notoriously volatile semiconductor industry… and even more so from the companies that manufacture its equipment. Of that sub-sector, lithography – the business of writing interpretable codes on hard surfaces like computer chips – brings in the largest revenue amounts. In 2008, it accounted for almost a quarter of the $22 billion the larger semiconductor equipment industry made. But despite that impressive amount, even the ]]></description>

Even though we are pleased with the company’s significant international presence &#8212; which coupled with its wide range of products also drive growth &#8211; the intense competition confronting its products concern us. Furthermore, ZOLL’s strategy of growth by acquisition has inherent risks.

		<description><![CDATA[ZOLL Medical Corp. (ZOLL) reported fourth-quarter earnings of 16 cents per share, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 8 cents. The company earned 41 cents in the year-ago quarter. The lower profit in the quarter was attributable to lower margins coupled with higher expenses, in spite of higher revenues. For full fiscal 2009, the company earned 45 cents per share, which exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8 cents but was well below the year-ago earnings of $1.10. Quarterly Results Revenues in the reported quarter came in at $107.87 million from $105.60 million in the year ago quarter, up 2%. Revenue for the quarter reflected a negative foreign exchange impact of approximately $1.4 million and included approximately $5 million from the acquisition of the Temperature Management business.
