Net profit came in at $37.5 million, +0.8% on-year but off 4.8% on-quarter, 1.1% shy of house’s estimate, due to higher subsidies for smartphones, higher year-end promotional activities.
It adds, M1 is guiding for earnings growth in 2011, “fixed network services tend to come with lower profit margins.” Thus it cuts FY11 earnings estimate by 2.0% after bumping up revenue forecast by 3.4%, and continues to like M1 for "its defensive earnings and attractive dividend yield." $2.40 is a likely support.
