Linktone Ltd. (ADR) (LTON)

Occasionally I bounce out a "just because". Linktone is speculative, it's in China meaning good growth potential, but poor reporting to analyze. Margins are weak and growth has been erratic. On the plus side, Linktone appears to be innovative and signed a contract to carry some MLB video highlights. Of course, the fan club for Major League US baseball in China is questionable. Overall, however, it shows Linktone's mobile entertainment pull. They also hired Ernst & Young as an accountant which may help with reporting concerns often associated with Chinese Companies. Their 25% spike from last week's MLB announcement should probably have me waiting in the bull pen on this call. Typically pops are followed by some percentage of drops. Overall, however, I think Linktone while speculative, may just have the ring of a potential long term winner, or may be a buyout candidate in this merger frenzy sector.

Mobile phone app growth.

The china tech rally still has some room to grow.

Telecommunications in China? Helping billions of commies communicate better? Can you say winner?

GG Wild Card.

China, Undervalued.

It can only get better, in for the long haul.

Great company, oversold on bad news.

Just fallen to low agaist PE look undervalued by 20% or so

great industry

Low price and promising value

I believe that the price has been manipulated lower by a Linktone controlled cartel so that Linktone can complete its $ 35,000,000 stock repurchase progam at riduculously low prices. This stock is so undervalued it defies all common sence and reason. The cartel has been manipulating the price since Linktone began its repurchase program. I have loads of research and support for my position and have exactly predicted where the cartel will drive the price each day for the past 2 months. Linktone will make a profit of over $ 40,000,000 as a result of its repurchase program - more than it has made from ongoing operations. They sold the stock for over $11 per share and have been buying it back for under and around $ 5 per share. 7,000,000 shares and the price has rapidly been falling. The company is clever and has pulled off the best scam I have ever seen. They have found a way to make over $ 40,000,000 by

The WVAS still has alot of room to grow in China. Eventhough the mobile phone carriers make it tough for these service providers, this just means "the stonger survive" Linktone is a good long term stock w/ potential short term gain. Price is okay value now. I think it is more likly to go up then down. However, I wouldn't be surprise if it goes further down which I can throw in a 2nd punch.

Poised for growth with connections to a large Chinese TV network and widespread hospital video advertising. (Yes, I'm highly invested in China)

Should outpace clunkers to the first turn; question is: can it stay with the closers?

This stock is relatively underpriced compared to the other players in the market. Compare its ratios to other companies and you will realize that its stock price does not accurately reflect the quality of this company. It has a low P/E for the industry while boasting some of the highest profit margins. It's fundementals are currently weak but don't write off this company.(disclaimer: I own this stock and you should know that while considering my comments)

This showed up on the "Cash-Rich" stock screen at the AAII website. Linktone provides wireless media, entertainment, and communication services to mobile phone users in China. The most recent quarter earnings were disappointing, which the company attributed to a "tough environment". They hold 25% of their market cap in cash and hold no debt (according to Yahoo). PE to growth sits around 1, and they currently trade closer to their 52 week low than their 52 week high. There appears to be a lot of competition in this field, but this stock is very volatile, and they should be ahead of the market at some point in the next 1-2 years. Of course, their current valuation and the cash on their balance sheet could make them an attractive acquisition candidate.
