Power-One Inc. (PWER) is a designer and manufacturer of power conversion and power management products, primarily for the communications and server/storage infrastructure equipment, industrial applications, high-end consumer and industrial appliances, and renewable energy markets. The Company's products are used to convert, process and manage electrical energy, in both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) form. In the renewable energy market, PWER sells inverters primarily for roof-top solar applications. During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company expanded its product line to include central solar inverters.
In the report, the analyst notes:
"The Company's results for the first six months of 2009 were impacted by the global economic recession. Demand for its products during the first six months decreased as many of its customers pushed orders out to future quarters and delayed new projects in response to the economic slowdown. PWER has reduced its overall cost structure and have made improvements in its gross margin as a result of the implementation of operational and financial initiatives, in spite of revenue and booking levels being negatively impacted by external demand during the first six months of the year."
"PWER recently announced that it has entered into a non-exclusive Field of Use agreement to license its digital power technology patents to Texas Instruments (TI), a designer and manufacturer of analog technologies, digital signal processing (DSP) and microcontroller (MCU) semiconductors. The non-exclusive license agreement provides access to PWER's portfolio of digital power technology patents for incorporation in TI's DC/DC controllers and modules, but does not extend to merchant stand-alone power supplies that use TI controllers."
