CAPS Rating:

The Company designs, manufactures and markets computerized gaming equipment, systems and services.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Times are likely to be tight in Vegas (and other gambling destinations) for 2008 as disposable income gets squeezed, and that's likely to filter down from the casino owners/operators down to the suppliers, like IGT, with 70%+ market share in the slot machine business. But we're roughly 12 months aw...More

Losing the plot. Dominance ebbing with WMS and Aristocrat rising strongly in the market. They are lucky Bally has yet to get their plot together having created a luckless looking senior management team that has little or no gaming expertise. (shades of Loveman but without the clout..ouch)

Recs 0 (IGT) Cheekybloke (88.50) Submitted: 5/29/08 12:51 PM : Start Price: $35.83 IGT Score: -24.25 While 2008 may be slow due to the tough economy, casinos are just starting to enter a replacement phase for slot machines and IGT is the biggest player in this business -- and has a wide moat. On top of that, server based slots is a new concept on the horizon for casinos. I have seen it referred to as like the difference in colored TV vs. watching in black and white. If this is true, that large of a revolutionary concept in slots doesn't appear to be priced into IGT's pricing -- and it is one of the leaders in server based slots. What does this all mean? The stock is beat up and near its 52 week low due to tough economy. Stock should go up as replacement cycle kicks in, probably in 20098. If server based slots takes off as some are predicting, this stock will zoom up. In my mind, the upside is much greater than downside. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!

Recs 7 (IGT) ddberg (96.65) Submitted: 5/29/08 10:50 AM : Start Price: $35.52 IGT Score: -24.13 Times are likely to be tight in Vegas (and other gambling destinations) for 2008 as disposable income gets squeezed, and that's likely to filter down from the casino owners/operators down to the suppliers, like IGT, with 70%+ market share in the slot machine business. But we're roughly 12 months away from the start of the next replacement cycle of gaming equipment in most casinos, which even if slightly stunted by some casinos' desire to cut spending, is still going to be a boom revenue/earnings period for IGT. As an added catalyst, IGT is in the process of installing their first server-based machines in Las Vegas -- a huge value-add concept for an industry that is masterful in their ability to constantly monitor and manage what's going on on their gambling floors in real time -- which could have a revolutionary impact on the electronic gambling machine business. If interest in this technology takes off like it's expected to once the first system is up and running, it could mean 2009 and 2010 are far beyond analyst expectations for IGT. Again, 2008 could well be a slow year, but an Outperform call for the 2-4 year time frame seems like a good bet (pun intended) to me. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops!
