		<description><![CDATA[We have maintained a Neutral rating on Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. (DPS) following appraisal of fourth quarter and fiscal year 2011 results. Dr Pepper reported fourth-quarter 2011 earnings of 82 cents per share, up 22.4% from the year-ago earnings of 67 cents per share. The company’s quarterly earnings also surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 74 cents per share.

The year-on-year growth was mainly attributable to price increases and a favorable mix. The company entered into priority brand agreements with cola giants PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP) and The Coca Cola Company (KO) in 2010. These initiatives also ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In a technology driven world, it has become a prerequisite for the telecom companies to upgrade its mobile technology with the high-speed networks. Currently, the Telecom industry is focusing on the next-generation technology (i.e. fourth generation [4G]), which is based on Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE has become the life-blood for operators across the world. It is an evolution of GSM and Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) standards. Significance Introduced in mid-2009, LTE became a standard technology in the U.S. in 2011. It is the fastest wireless network technology and uses radio spectrum allowing more data transfers with the same bandwidth used by any 3G or other devices.

		<description><![CDATA[Rogers Communications Inc. (RCI), a leading cable MSO and wireless operator in Canada, has decided to diversify vertically. Management plans to apply to government for introducing a bank under the Canadian Bank Act. However, the company announced that if granted permission, Rogers Communications will primarily focus on credit, payment, and charge-card services and it has no immediate plan to convert the bank as a full-service deposit taking and lending financial institution. It may take more than one year to get banking license from the government. We believe Rogers Communications is trying to establish its foothold in the mobile-banking vertical. The mobile-banking is a rapidly growing still unsaturated market opportunity in Canada. This was primarily attributable to massive growth of smartphone, which can be used as an electronic wallet for netbanking, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are maintaining our Neutral recommendation on Shaw Communications Inc. (SJR), a leading provider of broadband cable television and Direct-to-home (DTH) satellite services in the U.S and Canada, based on strong third quarter 2011 results where both the top line and bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Shaw Communications acquired a 100% stake in the over-the-air and specialty television businesses of Canwest Global Communications Corp. (“Canwest”) for approximately $2 billion. The inclusion of such a popular broadcasting network is expected to position Shaw Communications as one of the leading entertainment and communications companies in the Canadian broadcasting industry. Moreover, with the acquisition of Canwest, the company intends to diversify its operations, which in turn will provide better future growth prospect. Furthermore, the inclusion of Global TV network will enable ]]></description>

The company also declared that LTE-enabled smartphones manufactured by Samsung and HTC will be available by the end of 2011.

		<description><![CDATA[Telecommunications is one of the very few industries that witnessed massive technological improvement during the recession. An unprecedented growth of high-speed mobile Internet traffic, particularly for wireless data and video, has transformed this industry into the most evolving, inventive and keenly contested industry. The telecommunications industry is identified as a major driver of the global economic recovery. The world economy is currently going through a recovery phase. The momentum is expected to remain strong in 2011. Several industry researchers have predicted that 2011 may witness telecommunications spending even more than the pre-recession periods. In the last few years, capital spending constraints among telecom operators due to severe recessionary conditions were the main hindrance to growth of this industry. However, with the economic recovery underway, large telecom service providers are gradually ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the 10-year T-note yielding only 3.06%, those investors interested in getting income from their investments are in sort of a tough place. Dividend-paying stocks are a very good place to look for a replacement. One thing you know for sure is that the coupon payment on a 10-year note is not going to rise. A yield of 3.06% does not offer much of a cushion against inflation. What is inflation likely to average over the next 10 years? I have no idea, but based on the spread between the regular 10-year note, and the 10-year TIPS, the market is implicitly expecting a rate of about 2.50%, which is pretty much in line with the historical experience (Headline CPI) over the last 20 years of 2.57%. While core inflation is ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The second largest Canadian telecommunications company, Telus Corporation (TU) reported first quarter 2011 adjusted earnings per ADS of 98 cents (97 Canadian cents per share), outpacing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. Adjusted earnings increased 14% year over year. The earnings uptick can be attributed to strong smartphone demand. Adjusted earnings exclude a gain of 4 cents from the acquisition of a contact centre business. Total revenue increased 6.5% year over year to C$2.531 billion ($2.567 billion), striding ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.490 billion. The year-over-year increase was attributable to higher revenues from wireless and wireline data services partially offset by declines in traditional voice revenues. Adjusted EBITDA upped 2.9% year over year to C$970 million ($983 million). The improved revenue was partially offset by high ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the 10-year T-note yielding only 3.21%, investors interested in getting income from their investments are in sort of a tough place. Dividend-paying stocks are a very good place to look for a replacement. One thing you know for sure is that the coupon payment on a 10-year note is not going to rise. A yield of 3.21% does not offer much of a cushion against inflation. What is inflation likely to average over the next 10 years? I have no idea, but based on the spread between the regular 10-year note, and the 10-year TIPS, the market is implicitly expecting a rate of about 2.50%, which is pretty much in line with the historical experience (headline CPI) over the last 20 years of 2.57%. While core inflation is the ]]></description>

It will provide higher Internet speeds relative to its 3G network. Telus had upgraded its existing CDMA-based wireless network to the 3G high speed packet access plus (HSPA+) technology in late 2009 that offers downlink speeds of up to 21 (Mbps). HSPA+ wireless network covers more than 95% of the Canadian population. Further, the company is expected to launch HSPA+ Dual Cell technology in the first half of this year. HSPA+ Dual Cell technology will double the download speeds to 42 Mbps on its 3G network by combining two wireless data carriers into a single carrier. Telus rolled out these ]]></description>

(BCE), Canada’s largest telephone operator, reported third quarter adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of 82 Canadian cents (79 cents per ADS) beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 72 cents per ADS. Earnings slipped 2.4% from 84 Canadian cents in the year-ago quarter due to higher income tax expense partially offset by favorable impacts of higher EBITDA, lower interest and reduced restructuring and other expenses. Consolidated revenue inched up 1.3% year over year to C$4.52 billion ($4.36 billion). Higher revenue from Bell Wireless was partially offset by lower revenue at Bell Aliant and Bell Wireline. EBITDA grew 1.7% year over year to C$1.83 billion ($1.77 billion) and operating income climbed 11.1% to C$869 million ($839 million) from the year-ago quarter.

Shaw Communications is a leading cable and satellite MSO of Canada operating mainly in the western part of the country. Shaw Communications has entered into agreements to acquire 100% of the over-the-air and specialty television businesses of Canwest Global Communications Corp. for approximately $2.0 billion. Canwest has restructured itself as a pure-play Canadian broadcaster. This transaction is expected to position Shaw Communications as one of the leading entertainment and communications companies in Canada with effective control of a premier broadcaster and content owner in the Canadian broadcasting industry. We believe the recent venture in super-fast FTTH networks and on-demand online services will sustain Shaw Communications’ future ]]></description>

While our overall view is neutral for the industry, the recent sell-off has created attractive opportunities in a number of stocks. The industry encompasses a lot of technology-related businesses. Besides the traditional local and long-distance wire-line telephone services, telecommunications also include wireless communications, Internet services, fiber optics networks, cable TV networks and satellite communications. We believe that the overall economic dynamics may shift in favor of the telecommunications industry, although at a very slow pace, primarily due to its basic nature of being a major infrastructure product for both emerging and developed nations.

(RCI) following its first quarter 2010 financial results, significantly above the Zacks Consensus Estimates. Free cash flow, cash returns to shareholders, and adjusted operating profit increased in double digits. Rogers’ Wireless operations, which account for more than half of the company’s total revenue and 64% of its EBITDA, are well positioned with the lead share (37%) of the Canadian market. Wireless penetration in Canada is little more than 60%, providing massive growth opportunities for the well-positioned Canadian operators. In the first quarter 2010, wireless data revenue was $415 million, up 40% year-over-year and represents 26% of the total Wireless segment revenue.

Adjusted earnings exclude $17 million in restructuring charges and C$125 million (US$120 million) in net gains on investments, mainly arising from the sale of BCE’s stake in satellite service operator SkyTerra Communications. Net income surged 61% year-over-year to C$608 million (US$584 million) or 79 Canadian cents per share (US76 cents per ADS) as revenue grew on the back of strong results from the carrier’s wireless operation, boosted by aggressive promotion and a newly-launched high-speed network.

The device is expected to be available on the company’s 3G HSPA+ network in late 2010. However, Telus has not released any pricing information or any specific launch date. The award winning Backflip is powered by Google’s (GOOG) Android operating system and is equipped with Motorola’s “MotoBlur&#8221; interface, which enables easy access to feeds and updates from various social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. The multi-tasking device offers popular Google applications such as Gmail, Google Maps and Google Talk as well as YouTube.

(RCI) following its fourth quarter 2009 financial results, which came ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Despite facing an extremely challenging economic environment, Rogers performed exceptionally well in 2009, reflecting effective cost controls and an improved churn rate. This enabled the company to generate a double-digit increase in cash flow generation. Supported by strong free cash flow generation, the company announced a 10% dividend hike, taking the annual dividend from $1.16 to $1.28 per Class A Voting and Class B Non-Voting share. The company also announced a renewal of Rogers&#8217; NCIB program for the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of its Class B non-Voting shares on the open market during the next year.

Regardless what you may think about the sports of Ice Dancing or the Skeleton competition, stories of performance excellence and remarkable perseverance always accompany any Olympiad. Plus, more than a few of us would gladly switch fiscal positions with gold medalist Shaun White, aka &#8220;The Flying Tomato,&#8221; in 2010. So let&#8217;s look beyond the Russian tantrums and the fact that the Olympic Village is leaving the picturesque city of Vancouver $1 billion in the hole, and get to what might be in it for us, the average investor.

Supported by strong free cash (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) generation, the Board of Directors of Rogers increased the annualized dividend rate by 10% from $1.16 to $1.28 per Class A Voting and Class B Non-Voting share effective immediately. It has also approved the renewal of Rogers’ NCIB program for the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of its Class B non-Voting shares from the open market during next one year. Total quarterly revenue was $3,057 million, up 4% year-over-year. This is also better than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2,923 million. This was primarily due to an increase in sales for the Wireless and Cable segments, particularly massive growth of the Wireless Data segment. Quarterly net ]]></description>

The company’s first quarter fiscal 2010 financial results beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. However, an unexpected drop in basic cable subscribers is a major concern. Shaw Communications is facing severe challenges from new entrants in the Canadian cable TV market. The company is yet to come out with any concrete date line for the implementation of its much hyped wireless network. Shaw Communications’ cable operation is currently facing increased competition. Telus Corp’s (TU) entry into cable TV services has increased competitive pressure and may, in our view, shave Shaw’s market share and cap margin expansion.

Canadian wireless rates are among the highest in the world. In a bid to improve service and prices through competition, the Canadian federal government has licensed four new operators. Out of the four, Globalive, which will use the Wind Mobile brand, intends to offer its services in most of the country. The regulatory authority of Canada has proposed the imposition of a TV-tax which may increase the monthly bill of cable TV subscribers to a large extent. This may result in a significant drop in the number of cable TV customers and impact the entire broadcasting industry. Rogers’ cable operations are currently facing increased competition.

The company has decided to purchase Verivue Inc’s flash-centric video switch to be used in its legacy video-on-demand platform. Verivue’s MDX 9000 Series Media Distribution Switch is a network-centric platform designed to pipe video in formats that enable viewing on TVs, PCs, and mobile devices. This pretends to a TV Everywhere service which basically offers broadband video service that will enable pay-TV subscribers to watch premium cable programming online over broadband networks. At present, Shaw is using Arris Group Inc’s (ARRS) servers and back-office systems for its existing video-on-demand platform.

		<description><![CDATA[Telus Corp (TU), Canada’s second largest telecom carrier, has released financial targets for 2010 while lowering its forecasts for the current year. The revised target for 2009 reflects the impact of a sluggish Canadian economy on the company’s wireline business, launch of the new wireless network, cost associated with the launch of new smartphones (including the iPhone) and increase in restructuring cost in the fourth quarter. The company now expects overall revenue for 2009 to reach C$9.6 billion (US$9.06 billion), at the lower-end of its previously forecasted range of C$9.6–C$9.7 billion (US$9.06–US$9.15 billion). Revised EBITDA target of C$3.475 billion (US$3.28 billion) for 2009 also represents the lower-end of the earlier guidance of C$3.475–C$3.575 billion (US$3.28–US$3.37 billion). However, EPS guidance remains unchanged at C$3.10–C$3.30 (US$2.92–US$3.11). Capital expenditure (CapEx) target for 2009 ]]></description>

This will effectively end the country’s largest wireless carrier Rogers Communication’s (RCI) exclusive distribution rights to the popular handset. Since July 2008, Rogers Communication has been the sole Canadian carrier to market iPhone in the country as the device is compatible with the company’s GSM and HSPA (high speed packet access) based wireless networks. In contrast, both Telus and Bell Canada currently operates CDMA based networks which does not support the revolutionary smartphone.
