March Conference Call Notes and Info about Broadwing - BWNG
Dr. David Huber is transitioning out as CEO and the hunt is on for a new Big Name Executive CEO to carry the "NEW" Broadwing (BW) to higher levels.
BW operates a one-of-a-kind all-optical network and is The Leading Optical Network with 1,630 employees. They have unparalled customer focus and speed. Their growth products are: data, IP, and broadband/media services. Demand for high bandwidth services are on the rise.
Key development: Hong Kong based Hutchison Global Communications has chosen to partner with BW due to their technologically advanced network and innovative services. Parent Company HTX Stock
After 9 consecutive quarters of growth in broadband and data services, the partnering with Hutchison Global Communications that is owned and operated by Hong Kong's richest family, Li Ka Shing, and with the ever increasing demand for data broadband services should prove to accelerate future earnings and market share. The BW/HGC joint establishment of a new inter-carrier international Ethernet network enables international customers to connect multipoint Ethernet services from locations served by HGC in Asia, its Asian partners and others, with multipoint circuits in the United States. Both BW and HSC have validated the high demand for this new Trans-Pacific Ethernet solution. Further, HGC owns the largest fibre-to-the building telecommunications network in Hong Kong.
Company achieved BE in EBITDA in the 4th Qtr.
There is no question that we see Broadwing - BWNG as a solid core holding. Those who are lucky enough to be in on the ground floor should benefit nicely as the word gets out about the growth of this company and their partnering deals. We feel that the institutions have been accumulating shares quietly over the past few months.
