Spansion - Milliardenfirma und Pennystock
Ich werde mir mein Invest dann mal wohl nochmal überdenken müssen.
so so, die Analysten raten also zum Kauf. Ob man das als positives Zeichen werten kann? Naja, ich glaub´s erst, wenn der Richter es uns schwarz auf weiß zeigt.

don’t forget that Boaz Eitan [still on the (unelected) board] has >4.5M shares in SPSN…
I wonder what he will get? Nothing like everyone else? Yeah, right… if other SPSN shareholders don’t get equal treatment to Dr Eitan, Spansion are going to wind up in another kind of court.

Ich kenn da nicht den Hintergrund, aber wenn es stimmt, was der User schreibt, dann hat er ein überzeugendes Argument.
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Spansion Inc. today announced that leading Set-Top Box OEMs in Asia are adopting its MirrorBit® SPI Multi-I/O Flash memory to simplify designs, help reduce form factors and enable lower overall system costs in many of their new models.

A set-top box (STB) is an electronic device used to bridge and regulate content from cable or satellite TV operators to consumers. The boxes are becoming more feature-rich including functions like personal video recording and internet access for streaming content. Set-top box sales have continued to expand even amid the worse phase of the current economic downturn, with shipments set to grow to 136.7 million units in 2009, up 4.2 percent, due to rising demand from Asia and from products supporting High Definition (HD), Digital Video Recording and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), according to iSuppli Corp, El Segundo, California. Shipments are expected to rise to nearly 200 million systems by 2013, growing at a CAGR rate of 9 percent during the forecast period, according to Jordan Selburn, principal analyst for set-top boxes at iSuppli.
Spansion® MirrorBit SPI Multi-I/O Flash memory is enabling set-top box manufacturers to take advantage of the lower overall system costs that the serial interface enables, while offering high performance and reliability that the new digital home applications demand. The MirrorBit Multi-I/O SPI family includes 32-megabits (Mb), 64 Mb and 128Mb devices with all three densities shipping in volume production today. The S25FL-P devices are available in 8-pin SOIC (208 mil), 16-pin SOIC, USON (6mm x 5mm), WSON (6 mm x 8 mm) packages), depending on the density. In addition, all 3 densities are also offered in a BGA 6mm x 8mm package.
"As a global leader in China's developing set-top box industry that is known for its technically advanced, yet cost effective set-top box platform we are excited to see suppliers like Spansion bringing high performance to serial Flash memory so it can be leveraged in applications that demand more performance," said Wenting Zhang, Deputy General Manager of the set-top box department at DVN (Shanghai) Ltd. "By utilizing the simplified interface for Flash memory and with performance comparable to standard parallel I/O NOR flash, we are able to bring innovative devices to market with lower overall system costs."
SPI devices typically read information serially, or one bit at a time, requiring fewer connections and thus fewer pins. This simplifies board layout which results in lower system costs and reduces the form factor of many embedded designs. With multiple I/Os, SPI devices can transmit and receive data either one, two or four bits at a time from a single device, enabling faster speeds while still requiring only eight total pins or four active pins to retain the original benefits of single I/O SPI.
The enhanced performance means that serial devices can be used to support faster code execution, potentially reducing the amount of RAM required by the system with slower serial Flash memory solutions and enabling faster system power up times, considered an important benefit for consumer electronics. Leading performance of up to 40MB/s (80 MHz per I/O in quad I/O mode) makes the MirrorBit SPI Multi-I/O family capable of executing code in-place (XIP) for a variety of industrial and consumer electronics applications with performance that matches or exceeds conventional parallel I/O NOR Flash memory.
The product family also offers enhanced security features with a permanent sector lock security device that protects code and data stored in the memory array from being changed or erased in any way after this command has been activated. For higher levels of security, the 6x8mm BGA package can be used to further secure operator's code from signal hackers who attempt to probe the memory connections.
"By introducing this new family of MirrorBit SPI Multi-I/O Flash Memory devices, Spansion is delivering high performance while at the same time maintaining the simplified interface for Serial Flash memory, and enabling us to bring innovative devices to market with lower overall system costs," said Xiaohui Wang, the General Manager of R&D department at Skyworth Digital Technology Co. Ltd. "As an OEM focused on high-quality systems, we are excited to see suppliers like Spansion bringing tougher security and high performance to serial Flash memory so it can be leveraged in tomorrow's applications today."
In addition to set top boxes, Spansion's MirrorBit SPI Multi-I/O devices are designed to address the performance, cost and volume demands of applications such as optical disk drives, personal computers and high-end printers, as well as networking and home entertainment equipment such as digital TV and DVD players/recorders
Moin,
neues bezüglich der Gerichtsnetscheidung ist mir nicht bekannt. Ansonsten gibt es aber folgende news, die ich zunächst nicht gepostet habe, da ich dachte das der Thread hier tot ist;-)

Spansion (Sunnyvale, Calif.) officials declined to comment on the status of the fab, dubbed SP1. ''SP1 is an asset of Spansion Japan Ltd. and they are weighing all possible options to help advance the reorganization process. We continue to work closely with Spansion Japan and are fully supporting customer requirements through our internal and external manufacturing resources," according to a statement issued by Spansion.
In 2007, Spansion moved into limited production in the world's first 300-mm NOR flash-memory fab. The $1.2 billion fab is located in Aizuwakamatsu, Japan.
Then, Spansion fell on hard times. Earlier this year, Spansion's Japanese subsidiary, Spansion Japan Ltd., voluntarily entered into a proceeding under the ''Corporate Reorganization Law'' of Japan to obtain protection from its creditors as part of the company's restructuring efforts.
Then, in March, the company filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Spansion recently provided an update on its ongoing restructuring efforts that are aimed for the company to emerge from a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. ''We are on track for Chapter 11 emergence, which we are targeting for late Q4 2009 or early Q1 2010,'' a Spansion spokeswoman said.
Separately, Spansion said that set-top box OEMs in Asia are adopting its MirrorBit SPI Multi-I/O Flash memory. The products are aimed to simplify designs, help reduce form factors and enable lower overall system costs in many of their new models.
The MirrorBit Multi-I/O SPI family includes 32-, 64- and 128-Mbit devices, with all three densities shipping in volume production today.

A Spansion spokesperson said through a prepared statement that a "small restructuring" took place at Spansion Monday. The statement said the layoff was "necessary to better prioritize and align the company's resources with its business goals and emergence from Chapter 11." The company declined to provide further details on the job cuts.
Spansion (Sunnyvale, Calif.) has since March been restructuring under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Last week, sources said Spansion put its 300-mm fab in Japan up for sale. Spansion officials declined to comment on the status of the fab, dubbed SP1.
Alles von EEtimes.com ;-)
hm, d.h. Spansion hat nachgegeben und will erst mal alle finanziellen Fakten auf den Tisch legen. Hoffentlich geht´s weiter so.
Sinkt jetzt der Kurs, weil es länger dauert als vorgesehen oder weil die Aktionäre Schiss haben, weil die Daten auf den Tisch gelegt werden sollen?
Was Kispert vorhate, war doch, die Stammaktionäre rauszuweren, und das OHNE Offenlegung der finanziellen Fakten.
Die könnten ja erbringen, dass es nicht nötig ist, die Sammaktien rauszuwerfen. Spansion war die ganze Zeit nur halbtot, nicht ganz tot, und lebt jetzt wieder ganz gut, wie es aussieht.
Kann mir mal jemand erklären, wie das mit Samsung ausgegangen ist, wo Kispert auch gezwungen wurde, das Verfahren wieder aufzunehmen?
Ich hab jetzt eine ganze Reihe Fragen gestellt und würde mich über ein paar Antworten freuen.
Gruss, St. JCF
