IMO Linear Technology fair value = $40 per share with earnings expected today. Short play...

Projected 5-yr ebitda & net income CAGRs below peers: ADI AVX MCHP SYNA

chart

Low growth but fwd multiples still higher than same peer group

chart

Fundamental analysis implies shares are trading well above Fair Value

Nice quarterly report for LLTC. The Tech sector really seems to be leading the way in this recent market rally.

Nice.

EDN Innovation Award Presented for Linear Technology Power Device

April 28, 2008 09:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time
Permalink

MILPITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Linear Technology Corporation (Nasdaq:LLTC) today announced that EDN magazine has selected Linear’s LT3080 three-terminal parallelable low dropout linear regulator as EDN’s Innovation of the Year in the Power ICs category. The award was presented at the annual EDN Innovation Awards ceremony this month in San Jose, California to Linear Technology Vice President Engineering and Chief Technical Officer Robert Dobkin and Design Engineer Todd Owen, who developed the product.

“Every year the difficulty of technical challenges increases, the pressures of schedule, cost, and energy efficiency grow, and the resources available to design teams dwindle. That makes the achievements of this year’s EDN Innovation Award winners all the more impressive,” stated Ron Wilson, executive director of EDN Worldwide. “Selected by their peers in the design community for their outstanding results, these innovators stand in the front rank of the best and brightest electronics engineering has to offer.”

Robert Dobkin, CTO of Linear Technology, stated, “The LT3080 solves two difficult problems for linear regulators: spreading heat to eliminate heat sinks and increasing output current by simply adding additional devices. The circuit architecture is completely new and just as easy to use as older devices. I am proud to introduce this product.”

The LT3080 is a 1.1A three-terminal linear regulator that can easily be paralleled for heat spreading and higher output current, and is adjustable to zero with a single resistor. This is a new architecture for regulators and uses a current reference and voltage follower to allow sharing between multiple regulators, enabling multiamp linear regulation in all surface-mount systems without heat sinks.

The LT3080 has a wide input voltage capability of 1.2V to 40V, a dropout voltage of only 300mV and millivolt regulation. The output voltage is adjustable, spanning a wide range from 0V to 40V, and the on-chip trimmed reference achieves high accuracy of ±1%. The LT3080 really shines in generating multirail systems.

As a historical note, the LT3080 is a significant refinement of the industry-standard three-terminal linear regulators first developed by Robert Dobkin over 30 years ago. The new LT3080 device allows designers more flexibility in designing the power portion of their systems most simply and with optimal spreading of heat across the board.

Since the introduction of the LT3080 last year, there has been significant customer interest across a wide range of system applications.

Great quarter reported.

Linear shows higher profit, forecasts growth
Tue Apr 15, 2008 6:12pm EDT
(Adds details, Wall Street estimates, company forecasts)

SAN FRANCISCO, April 15 (Reuters) - Linear Technology Corp (LLTC.O: Quote, Profile, Research) posted a quarterly net profit on Tuesday that grew slightly from a year ago and the maker of analog microchips said it expected strong demand in its current quarter, despite concerns about the U.S. economy.

Linear, which makes digital-analog converters, amplifiers and chips that regulate battery usage in consumer electronics, expected revenue and income in its current, fourth quarter to grow 1 percent to 5 percent sequentially.

The midpoint of that range would put revenue at $306.8 million, higher than the $304.4 million that was the average forecast of Wall Street analysts on Reuters Estimates.

"June should be a growth quarter as we had a positive book- to-bill ration in the March quarter, and we would expect the June quarter to continue to have strength in many of our end- markets," Chief Executive Lothar Maier said in a statement. "However, the overriding general economic conditions merit concern."

Book-to-bill is the ratio of orders a company receives to how much product it ships. A positive ratio means Linear is getting orders for more product than it is selling.

Linear shares rose 3 percent to $31.47 in extended trading. The stock have fallen 9 percent over the last six months, compared with a fall of 16.5 percent for Texas Instruments Inc (TXN.N: Quote, Profile, Research) and of more than 25 percent for National Semiconductor Inc (NSM.N: Quote, Profile, Research), two of its largest rivals.

For its third fiscal quarter ended March 30, Linear had a net profit of $99.2 million, or 44 cents per share, compared with a profit of $98.6 million, or 32 cents per share, a year earlier.

Excluding special items such as stock-based compensation, Linear's profit was $110 million, or 49 cents per share, beating the 43 cents expected by analysts.

Revenue rose 17 percent to $297.9 million, topping the $296.6 million expected by analysts.

Linear's net profit fell in dollar terms, but the per-share amount rose due to a $3 billion stock buyback program launched a year ago that reduced the number of shares outstanding. (Reporting by Scott Hillis; Editing by Andre

Linear Technology Rises As Analyst Upgrades on Weak Dollar and Strong Market Growth

NEW YORK (AP) -- Chip maker Linear Technology Corp. rose Friday after Goldman Sachs analyst Craig Hettenbach upgraded it to "Buy" from "Neutral" and said he expects Linear to outperform its peers in the weakening economy.

Hettenbach, who assumed primary coverage of the stock, liked the effect the deteriorating dollar was having on Linear's export market. The analyst said its limited exposure to the wireless and consumer market should help the company navigate through difficult economic conditions.

The Milpitas, Calif.-based company makes chips that convert analog signals to digital.

"We believe the company's premier business model and ability to quickly adjust variable spending, including profit sharing, will help to preserve its market-leading margins," he said.

Linear shares rose 28 cents, less than a percent, to $30.46 Friday. They have traded between $25.90 and $38.84 in the last 12 months.
