GIMO: float looks to be 6.75 million indeed

Wednesday’s IPO is for 6,750,000 shares of common stock with a price of $19.00 per share. We had been given a price range of $18 to $20 per share, so this was right in the middle. Gigamon is offering 4,500,000 shares and certain selling stockholders are offering 2,250,000 shares.

As usual, Gigamon will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares being sold by the selling stockholders.

Don't know...might get some time to research it tonight though. You are right, for this to be profitable, have a small float & big time rev growth is pretty unique.

GIMO wow nice move, is this how easy it was to trade IPO's during tech bubble-blowing phase?

Hot stocks watch:

Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in Wednesday's
session are Rambus Inc. (RMBS), Ulta Salon Cosmetics & Fragrance Inc. (ULTA)
and First Solar Inc. (FSLR).


Rambus said South Korea's SK Hynix Inc. (HXSCF, 000660.SE) has agreed to pay
$240 million as part of a patent dispute over memory-chip technology that has
dragged on since 2000. Rambus shares jumped 10% to $8.87 after hours Tuesday.


Ulta Salon's fiscal first-quarter earnings rose 20% as the beauty-products
retailer benefited from double-digit sales growth. Shares of Ulta were up 9.6%
at $92.20 in after-hours trading as profit and revenue beat expectations.


First Solar has begun an offering of 8.5 million shares as the solar-panel
maker looks to raise funds for general corporate purposes. The company had 87.8
million shares outstanding as of May 3. Shares were down 7.4% at $48.42 after
hours.


Icahn Enterprises LP (IEP) said it has commenced an offering of depositary
units representing limited partner interests, but didn't specify how many units
it was selling. The firm had about 109.5 million units outstanding as of May 2.
Units slipped 5.7% to $75.01 after hours.

Watchlist:


Enbridge Energy Partners L.P. (EEP) said it intends to file plans to spin off
some of its natural gas and natural-gas midstream assets in an initial public
offering, joining a stream of companies forming master limited partnerships in
the sector.


Newcastle Investment Corp. (NCT) plans to offer 30 million shares and will
use proceeds for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions of senior
housing properties. The real-estate investment trust had 253 million shares
outstanding as of May 2.


Oxford Industries Inc.'s (OXM) fiscal first-quarter earnings sank 24% as the
apparel company posted higher costs related to the expansion of its Tommy
Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer brands, masking stronger revenue and margins.


Pandora Media Inc. (P) is buying a small radio station in South Dakota in an
effort to lower its royalty rates.


PetSmart Inc. (PETM) said outgoing Chief Executive Bob Moran will step down
from the board, and named Gregory P. Josefowicz to the role of chairman.


Spectra Energy Corp. (SE) said it plans to drop down its remaining U.S.
transmission and storage assets to Spectra Energy Partners (SEP) by the end of
the year, a move that will allow both companies to increase their dividends.


Yum Brands Inc. (YUM), the parent company of Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and KFC,
said its same-store sales in China fell an estimated 19% in May, as KFC
continues to suffer from the lingering impact of a bird-flu scare and quality
issues with some of its chicken suppliers. The key sales figure was in line
with Wall Street analysts' expectations, according to Consensus Metrix, and
marked some improvement from April, when it dropped 29%.

ROSG news, can move big once in a while:

Preferred Provider Organization network has more than 10 million covered lives; one-in-five Americans now covered for the Rosetta Cancer Origin Test(TM)


PHILADELPHIA and REHOVOT, Israel, June 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Rosetta Genomics Ltd. (NASDAQ: ROSG), a leading developer and provider of microRNA-based molecular diagnostics, announces that the Company has executed a credentialing agreement with Three Rivers Provider Network, Inc. (TRPN) of Chula Vista, Calif., for the Rosetta Cancer Origin Test. TRPN is one of the largest supplemental Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO) in the U.S., providing healthcare benefits to more than 10 million members nationwide.

"This is the second credentialing agreement executed between Rosetta and a U.S. PPO. Together with Medicare reimbursement, the total number of covered lives and for which the Rosetta Cancer Origin Test could be adjudicated as 'in-network' now exceeds 61 million, which means that one-in-five Americans are covered for the Rosetta Cancer Origin Test," said Kenneth A. Berlin President and Chief Executive Officer of Rosetta Genomics. "We continue to pursue additional agreements with other PPOs as they provide faster payment while maintaining acceptable levels of reimbursement, and also reduce costs incurred through appealing denials. This has become increasingly important to our company as we continue to see a growing number of samples being processed and billed by our CLIA lab."

"This agreement comes at a good time for Rosetta as it follows on our strong presence at ASCO 2013, where we significantly enhanced the awareness of the Cancer Origin Test among an audience of the world's leading oncologists and researchers. In addition, positive trends in billable and processed samples for the Cancer Origin Test have led us to begin expansion of our sales territories from 5 to 12. The credentialing agreement with TRPN further enhances our ability to gain traction in the market and to further increase access of this test to patients with a CUP diagnosis.

"With more than 200,000 patients per year presenting with Cancer of Unknown or Uncertain Primary (CUP) or who would otherwise benefit from this test, this expanding coverage reflects the importance of determining the tumor origin in hard-to-diagnose metastatic cancers and CUP. This is particularly important as new, molecularly-targeted cancer treatments are developed. We believe the Rosetta Cancer Origin Test(TM) can help physicians to accurately diagnose tumor origin in order to optimize treatment. The availability and accuracy of our Cancer Origin Test underscores why the uncertainty of CUP is no longer acceptable," Mr. Berlin added.

A PPO is a managed care organization of medical doctors, hospitals and other health care providers that has covenanted with an insurer or a third-party administrator to provide health care at reduced rates to the insurer's or administrator's clients. Credentialing is a process whereby provider organizations such as physicians, care facilities and ancillary providers (including testing service providers such as Rosetta Genomics') contract directly with the PPO.

About Three Rivers Provider Network

Three Rivers Provider Network was founded in 1996 as a company that was contracted to provide services for several major auto clients. At that time, its clients needed to access a network that would grant PPO-type discounts without incurring balance billing risks for their members. Over time, given superior results and high levels of satisfaction of service, TRPN was prompted by other companies that focused on group health and workers' compensation to perform similar type services for them. TRPN contracts were uniquely designed for group health, workers' compensation and auto liability claims expanding existing coverage and significantly reducing out-of-network expense.

Since that time, TRPN has evolved into the largest and fastest-growing proprietary PPO network in the U.S. The TRPN network is now comprised of more than 600,000 total providers, including more than 5,000 hospitals and 70,000 ancillary facilities. Through its clients, approximately 10 million lives now have access to the TRPN PPO network.

TiVo Announces Settlement of Patent Litigation and Doubling of Stock Repurchase Authorization

Settles Patent Litigation With Cisco, Motorola and Time Warner Cable for $490 Million Brings Aggregate Awards and Settlements From Intellectual Property Actions to Roughly $1.6 Billion Increases Stock Repurchase Authorization to $200 Million With Plans to Increase Size of Current 10b5-1 Plan

SAN JOSE, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 7, 2013) - TiVo Inc. (NASDAQ: TIVO) announced today that it has settled its pending patent litigation with Motorola (now owned by Google and Arris), Cisco and Time Warner Cable and that TiVo has agreed to enter into certain patent licensing arrangements with Arris, Cisco, and Google. As part of the settlement, Google and Cisco will pay TiVo an upfront lump-sum payment of $490 million, bringing the total from awards and settlements related to the use of certain TiVo intellectual property to roughly $1.6 billion.

In conjunction with approving the terms of the settlement, TiVo's board of directors also approved a major expansion of TiVo's stock repurchase authorization. The board's action doubles the size of the authorization from $100 million to $200 million and extends the stock repurchase plan for an additional two years until August 29, 2015. Additionally, TiVo intends to increase the size of its 10b5-1 trading plan significantly as a result. This will allow TiVo to build on the almost $57 million worth of equity acquired through open market purchases and from tax withholdings on employee restricted share vesting since the time the board of directors first authorized the $100 million stock repurchase plan. This increased and extended repurchase authorization means TiVo will have over $160 million of unused stock repurchase authorization.

"We are pleased to reach an agreement that brings our pending litigation to an end and further underscores the significant value our distribution partners derive from TiVo's technological innovations and our shareholders derive from our investments in protecting TiVo's intellectual property," said Tom Rogers, CEO and President of TiVo. "Further, this settlement significantly enhances our already strong balance sheet, bringing our cash position to over $1 billion before inclusion of future expected payments of at least $400 million from prior settlements. We intend to use our significant capital resources to drive shareholder value, including more aggressively returning capital to shareholders under our newly increased share repurchase authorization and we will be increasing the size of our 10B5-1 trading plan as soon as permissible."

Mr. Rogers added, "Importantly, we just recently closed one of our best quarters ever in terms of subscription growth, driven by a number of our existing operator deals in the U.S. and abroad that are now fully up and running. As a result, we delivered our highest gross margin ever and solid MSO revenue growth of 98% year-over-year, and we expect this MSO revenue growth will continue as we roll out additional deployments. So, as we look out beyond today's important settlement we believe our core operating business will continue to drive growth to both the top and bottom line."

As part of the settlement, TiVo and Motorola, Cisco, and Time Warner Cable agreed to dismiss all pending litigation between the companies. TiVo will recognize a portion of the payment as past damages during the second quarter and the remainder over time. The company intends to provide additional details regarding the timing of revenue recognition in its second quarter fiscal year 2014 earnings report. Further, as a result of this settlement, TiVo expects net income and Adjusted EBITDA to benefit from lower litigation spend in the remainder of its fiscal year ending January 31, 2014 and beyond.

Sales in our North America wholesale segment increased 57%, reflecting comparable store sales growth as well as the continued conversion to shop-in-shops in department stores. In Europe, sales nearly doubled during the quarter, with continued expansion of brand awareness leading to 63% comparable store sales growth. Finally, in our licensing segment, revenue increased 16%, driven primarily by the ongoing strength in watches and eyewear.

Partnership achieves further operating improvements; Nears comprehensive resolution to credit facility maturity to enhance financial flexibility


COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Oxford Resource Partners, LP (NYSE: OXF) (the "Partnership" or "Oxford") today announced first quarter 2013 financial results.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $9.0 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to $11.0 million for the first quarter of 2012. Adjusted EBITDA declined due to the planned lower sales volume from the Partnership's Illinois Basin operations. Cash margin per ton increased 7.9 percent to $6.40 in the first quarter of 2013 from $5.93 in the first quarter of 2012. This was driven by a 3.3 percent increase in coal sales revenue per ton to $50.65, partially offset by a 2.7 percent increase in cash cost of coal sales per ton to $44.25 as a result of the planned lower production from the Illinois Basin operations and increased purchased coal volume.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2013 was $6.3 million compared to a net loss of $15.7 million for the first quarter of 2012. Net loss for the first quarter of 2013 included $0.1 million of impairment and restructuring expenses and a $0.5 million loss on disposal of assets. Net loss for the first quarter of 2012 included $8.4 million in impairment and restructuring expenses and a $1.1 million loss on disposal of assets. Excluding impairment and restructuring expenses and

losses on disposal of assets, Adjusted Net Loss(2) would have been $5.7 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to $6.2 million for the first quarter of 2012.

"I am pleased to report that the year is off to a good start with first quarter Adjusted EBITDA performance showing a $1.0 million improvement over the fourth quarter," said Oxford's President and Chief Executive Officer Charles C. Ungurean. "We have been working diligently to address the upcoming credit facility maturity and expect to announce a comprehensive resolution within the next few weeks. With this increased financial flexibility, we will be better positioned to participate in a coal market rebound. We are encouraged by the recent decline in utility stockpiles and higher natural gas prices in our region, both of which should drive increasing demand in our market. Our recent actions to improve cash margins set the stage for us to generate further profitability improvement on higher future coal volumes."

Business Update

Oxford's projected sales volume is almost fully committed and priced for 2013, underscoring the strength of its long-term customer relationships and its strategic importance in its core region. For 2014, projected sales volume is 79 percent committed (with 47 percent of the projected sales volume priced and 32 percent of the projected sales volume unpriced).

As a leading low-cost producer of thermal coal and the largest producer of surface mined coal in Ohio, Oxford is focused on its core Northern Appalachian operations. Continued rationalization of the Partnership's Illinois Basin operations has allowed for the transfer of excess equipment to the Northern Appalachian mines, which has reduced capital expenditure spending. Based on current market conditions, the Partnership expects to idle production at its Illinois Basin operations and conclude its restructuring activities by the end of 2013.

Liquidity

As of March 31, 2013, the Partnership had $5.3 million of cash with no available borrowing capacity on its credit facility. In February 2013, the Partnership enhanced liquidity with the receipt of a settlement of $2.1 million from a purchase coal supplier to settle a contract dispute. The Partnership continues to pursue the sale of excess Illinois Basin equipment which had a net book value of $6.1 million at the end of the first quarter.

Credit Facility

The Partnership's current revolving credit facility matures in July 2013. Accordingly, as previously reported, the Partnership has been engaged in active negotiations addressing this upcoming maturity and expects to announce a comprehensive resolution within the next few weeks.

Because this resolution is not yet finalized and the Partnership is now in default of certain financial covenants, the borrowings under the credit facility of $147.5 million are presented as a current liability in its March 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements. The Partnership has obtained a forbearance agreement from the lenders under the credit facility pursuant to which the lenders have agreed to forbear from seeking any remedies for such defaults for a period of 30 days.

2013 Guidance

The Partnership provides the following updated guidance for 2013 based on its current industry outlook:

The Partnership expects to produce between 6.0 million tons and 6.5 million tons and sell between 6.4 million tons and 6.9 million tons of thermal coal. The average selling price is projected to be $50.50 per ton to $52.50 per ton, with an anticipated average cost of $42.85 per ton to $44.85 per ton.

Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in the range of $45 million to $50 million.

The Partnership anticipates capital expenditures of between $22 million and $25 million.

XONE earnings miss last night...but I don't think I know of another company with revenues that tripled Q/Q...they expected a quadrupling of revs...but still...clearly a massive opportunity here imo.

TTWO color: 8:16 EDT - Take-Two (TTWO) shares up 6.2% premarket after
better-than-expected F4Q results late yesterday. Piper Jaffray notes sales and
EPS upside driven by "BioShack Infinite" game, but more importantly, TTWO
"re-confirmed the 9/17 release of Grand Theft Auto V and gave favorable FY14
guidance." Focus now on GTA launch and next-generation gaming consoles from
Microsoft (MSFT) and Sony (SNE). On Grand Theft Auto V, a bullish Wedbush notes
TTWO "will enjoy over 6 months of its fiscal year with the game in stores,"
contrasting with prior releases, "which typically came out near fiscal year-end
and which did not benefit from holiday sales in the same fiscal year as
launch." (john.shipman@dowjones.com)

JOSB: Co issues downside guidance for Q1 (Apr), sees EPS of $0.27-0.30 vs. $0.46 Capital IQ Consensus Estimate. "While we were able to control our expenses and improve our advertising efficiency in the quarter, our gross margin was down primarily due to higher inventory sourcing costs and lower average selling prices due mostly to increased percentage of sales of winter clearance products. In addition, our sales declined ~3%, primarily in April. Like many other retailers, we were also affected by the unseasonably cool weather. On the positive side, our Direct Marketing business, primarily on the Internet, continued to perform well, with double-digit sales growth. The Company continues to maintain a strong balance sheet and, despite the slow start to the new year, the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 will still be profitable." Note: Co is expected to report full earnings on May 29 (un-confirmed).

SSYS: Reports Q1 (Mar) non-GAAP earnings of $0.43 per share, $0.06 better than the Capital IQ Consensus Estimate of $0.37; GAAP rev rose 116.0% year/year to $97.2 mln (includes the impact of amortization expense on deferred rev intangible assets related to the merger), non-GAAP rev +18% to 98.2 mln, consensus is $98.44 mln consensus. Non-GAAP gross margins improved to 59% for the first quarter from a pro forma non-GAAP 56.7% in the first quarter last year. Co reaffirms guidance for FY13, sees EPS of $1.80-1.95, excluding non-recurring items, vs. $1.83 Capital IQ Consensus; sees FY13 revs of $430-445 mln vs. $437.17 mln Capital IQ Consensus Estimate. Revenue growth is expected to be relatively stronger toward the end of the year as Stratasys progresses with its integration plan and realizes revenue synergies from selling the combined product portfolio. "Our plan to integrate the combined sales and marketing organization that resulted from our game-changing merger is ahead of schedule. Channel partners representing the vast majority of our potential revenue have been cross-trained and are now selling the Company's combined product and service portfolio. New customer and cross-selling opportunities have begun to result from this initiative."

ZAGG earnings commentary: Zagg Inc.'s (ZAGG) first-quarter profit decreased 83%, sharply missing analyst expectations, as the mobile-device accessory maker reported weaker margins and revenue.

Shares, which were halted ahead of the earnings release, tumbled 25% to $5.15 after hours as the company also lowered its full-year sales expectations. Through the close, the stock has fallen 47% over the past 12 months.

For the year, Zagg now sees sales of $274 million to $280 million, down from its prior view of $313 million to 318 million.

"This was a uniquely challenging quarter in which our results were impacted by a number of circumstances, some that were macro in nature and others that were company specific," said Chief Executive Randy Hales. "Though the company experienced reduced sales, ZAGG also realized benefits to its financial activities through the pay down of our line of credit and the repurchase of company stock."

ZAGG, has been diversifying its offerings from the screen protectors into areas such as keyboard cases for tablet computers, audio accessories and battery chargers.

The company noted Thursday that its results in the year-ago period benefited from product sales ahead of the launch of Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) iPad 3 in early April 2012, but there was no significant device launch in the latest quarter.

Additionally, Zagg said it ended its relationship with some of its distributors that it did not believe aligned with the company's channel pricing strategy during the quarter. While Zagg signed on new distributors, the revenue generated by these distributors combined with revenue from previous distributors missed its internal forecast. Zagg added it lost revenue opportunities as its invisibleSHIELD EXTREME and ZAGGkeys MINI 9 offerings were not well received by customers and as it consolidated its operations and sale force during the period.

Overall, Zagg reported a profit of $876,000, or three cents a share, down from $5.1 million, or 16 cents a share, a year earlier. Revenue fell 7.2% to $51.5 million.

Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters most recently projected earnings of 21 cents and revenue of $66.5 million.

Gross margin narrowed to 36.9% from 48.5%. The company noted gross margins were hurt by the continued shift in product mix as sales of invisibleSHIELD products, its highest margin product category, decreased as a percentage of total sales compared to a year earlier.

OT: ok, I'm guessing we are talking about restaurants?

OT: care to elaborate on that scenario? I'm interested to know some more details.

DDD color: Reports Q1 (Mar) adj. earnings of $0.21 per share, in-line with the Capital IQ Consensus Estimate consensus of $0.21; revenues rose 31.1% year/year to $102.1 mln vs the $101.61 mln consensus.  Gross profit increased 38% and gross profit margin expanded 250 basis points to 52.4%. 3D printers and other products revenue increased $15.0 million to $39.7 million on 81% higher prionter units and the addition of 3D authoring tols. Print materials revenue grew $4.1 million over 2012 to $28.7 million and services revenue rose $5.1 million over 2012 to $33.6 million. During Q1, the co introduced significant new products including personal and professional 3D printers, powerful designer software packages and exciting consumer apps. The co increased its R&D expenditures by $1.6 million compared to last year in support of its expanded product portfolio and extended its sales channels and printer manufacturing capacity. The co ended the first quarter with $110.5 million in cash, driven by $10.7 million of cash from operations. "We continue to experience positive sales momentum that ilds shaped primarily by increased demand from advanced manufacturing activities. While we may face lingering economic uncertainties in parts of the wor, we expect to continue to benefit from robust R&D and manufacturing spending by our customers worldwide."

DAX wow, didn't realize how horrible the German market has been this year so far, at least in comparison to us...perfect trend line pointing down too.

CAT wow yep...looks like a nice shakeout and rip

CAT: yep makes perfect sense for the nasty downtrend imo...was hoping it would be one of those scenarios where the bad earnings signals a bottom in the stock...but doubt it due to the horrid mining biz

CAT: Reports Q1 (Mar) earnings of $1.31 per share, $0.07 worse than the Capital IQ Consensus Estimate of $1.38; revenues fell 17.3% year/year to $13.21 bln vs the $13.93 bln consensus. Co lowered EPS guidance for FY13 to about $7.00 vs. $7.70 Capital IQ Consensus Estimate, down from $7.00-9.00; lowers FY13 revs guidance of $57-61 bln vs. $63.03 bln Capital IQ Consensus Estimate, down from $60-68 bln. "As we began 2013, we were concerned about economic growth in the United States and China and are pleased with the relative stability we have seen so far this year. In the United States, we are encouraged by progress so far and are becoming more optimistic on the housing sector in particular. In China, first quarter economic growth was slightly less than many expected, but in our view, remains consistent with slow growth in the world economy. In fact, our sales in China were higher in the first quarter of 2013 than they were in the first quarter of 2012, and machine inventories in China have declined substantially from a year ago," said Oberhelman. "We have three large segments: Construction Industries; Power Systems; and Resource Industries, which is mostly mining. While expectations for Construction Industries and Power Systems are similar to our previous outlook, our expectations for mining have decreased significantly. Our revised 2013 outlook reflects a sales decline of about 50 percent from 2012 for traditional Cat machines used in mining and a decline of about 15% for sales of machines from our Bucyrus acquisition," said Oberhelman. The decline in the outlook for sales and revenues is primarily related to mining equipment sales. Resource Industries Resource Industries' sales were $3.676 billion in Q1 of 2013, a decrease of $1.102 billion, or 23% , from Q1 of 2012. The sales volume decrease was primarily due to changes in dealer new machine inventories and decreases in dealer deliveries to end users. Dealer-reported new machine inventory decreased during Q1 of 2013 compared with an increase during Q1 of 2012. Improved price realization partially offset the decrease in sales volume. While sales for both new equipment and aftermarket parts declined, the more significant decrease was for new equipment. Sales decreased in every region of the world except Latin America. The increase in Latin America sales was primarily due to the timing of shipments in the first quarter of 2012. In Q1 of 2013, mining companies continued to reduce capital expenditures, and new orders continued to be weak and were well below first quarter of 2012. Resource Industries' profit was $477 mln in Q1 of 2013 compared with $1.168 billion in Q1 of 2012. The decrease was a result of lower sales volume, higher manufacturing costs and the unfavorable impact from the acquisition of Siwei and the divestiture of portions of the Bucyrus distribution businesses. These decreases were partially offset by favorable price realization. Higher manufacturing costs were driven by lower production in Q1 of 2013 and unfavorable changes in cost absorption resulting from a decrease in inventory during Q1 of 2013 and an increase in inventory during Q1 of 2012. Depreciation expense also increased
