		<description><![CDATA[We upgrade our recommendation on Millicom International Cellular S.A. (MICC) to Outperform. Millicom reported excellent financial results for the first quarter of 2011, easily beating the Zacks Consensus Estimates.  This fabulous performance was primarily attributable to a double-digit growth in Latin America and Africa. Furthermore, highly penetrated Central American region also witnessed a 5% revenue growth. Significant growth of 3G mobile and broadband services coupled with lucrative wireless value-added services business in Central/South America and Africa will serve as long-term business catalysts. Millicom operates in Central &#38; South America, and Africa. These regions are economically less stable, but average mobile penetration rates remain appealing at around 40% (20%-25% in Africa) fostering vast revenue potential.

		<description><![CDATA[We downgrade our recommendation for Millicom International Cellular S.A. (MICC) to Underperform based on its current valuation. The stock price has moved up by nearly 40% in the past year and is trading at its 52-week high at present. With respect to several valuation metrics, Millicom is trading at significantly higher multiples compared to both the S&#38;P 500 average and the industry average. We believe increasing competition in the telecom sector in the emerging markets may generate volatile revenue trends. Millicom is giving a major thrust to its African operations for future growth. However, Africa is seeing increased competition. Global telecom giant Vodafone Group Plc. (VOD), South MTN Group Ltd, Bharti Airtel and France Telecom S.A. (FTE) are existing players in this market.

		<description><![CDATA[Millicom International Cellular SA (MICC) intends to redeem in full the 2013 10% high yield bond in December 2010. The redemption will play an important role in Millicoms’s financial strategy by reducing the cost of financing, extending average maturity to more than three and a half years, strengthening risk management and improving tax efficiency. During second quarter 2010, Millicom’s total revenue grew 14% year over year to $928.6 million and surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $921 million, mainly due to a higher contribution from African and Latin American regions and the strengthening of the dollar against a number of local currencies. Earnings per share came in at $1.20, compared with $1.05 in the prior-year quarter. However, the result was well below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.36, primarily due to a ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Millicom International Cellular S.A. (MICC) is all set to complete the full divestment of its Asian operations by end 2009. Last June, the company took a strategic decision to get rid of its Asian businesses in the face of increased competition and an extremely tight credit market. The Asian region, consisting of Laos, Cambodia, and Sri Lanka, contributed just 8% of the company’s total revenues and its EBITDA contribution was even lower at 6%. Millicom engaged Goldman Sachs to help in the disinvestment process. The company yesterday entered into an unconditional agreement with Emirates Telecommunications Corp. (Etisalat), a United Arab Emirates based international telecom service provider, to sell its largest Asian operation in Sri Lanka.  Named as Tigo Sri Lanka, this is a 100% owned subsidiary of the company.

This gives the smaller gear makers like PureWave Networks and Airspan Networks a chance to enter the WiMAX market.
