30/10/2003 08:48 | (Updating with chairman quote, analyst forecast, sector breakdown) PARIS (AFX) - Alcatel said it expects to break even at the net level in the fourth quarter before goodwill amortization after its third quarter net loss narrowed to 284 mln eur from 1.352 bln a year earlier. Analysts polled by AFX News had forecast a net loss in the range of 248-453 mln eur. For the full year, Alcatel said it expects to exceed its breakeven target for operating profit. "Operating performance continued to be strong in broadband access, in mobile networks, and in the rail communication and control business," said Alcatel chairman and chief executive officer Serge Tchuruk in a statement. The company gave no precise guidance for the net result, but said that over the full year its published net loss should be roughly equivalent to goodwill and charges added together. Alcatel said it swung into a profit of 160 mln eur at the operating level in the third quarter from a loss of 227 mln a year earlier and that it expects to beat its own guidance for operating profit over the full year. Fourth quarter sales are expected to jump 20 pct from the third quarter. By segment, fixed-line communications operating profit was 66 mln eur in the third quarter compared to a loss of 248 mln eur a year earlier. In the mobile communications division, operating profit was 79 mln eur, up from a profit of 50 mln eur a year earlier. Alcatel's private communication unit reported an operating profit of 55 mln eur in the quarter, up from 35 mln eur a year earlier. paris@afxnews.com mrg/lwl/cw | maywillow | |

23/10/2003 09:32 | PARIS (AFX) - Alcatel declined to comment on a newswire report that the company plans to divest its mobile handset operations, a company spokeswoman said. She did note, however, that Alcatel said in July that its mobile handset operations were essential to the company's development, and that chief executive Serge Tchuruk reiterated the importance of mobile handsets at a conference in September. Alcatel last year outsourced much of its handset production to Asia. Francois Duhen, analyst at CIC Securities in Paris, said he is not convinced that Alcatel needs to keep the mobile handset business in order to identify client needs. "This divestment would be favourable, since the group would pursue its efforts to refocus on operations where it has better growth and profitability prospects," Duhen said in a research note released today. "In the absence of any buyer, it is more likely that Alcatel will end up closing these activities, which have already largely been outsourced, and nonetheless remain at best only slightly profitable," he added. Alcatel does not provide a breakdown of mobile handset earnings, which are part of its mobile communications division. paris@afxnews.com js/cw | maywillow | |

03/10/2003 18:48 | PARIS (AFX) - Thales SA chief executive Denis Ranque denied rumours of an imminent shake-up of the group's shareholding structure, saying neither the state nor Alcatel has expressed an interest in selling their stakes soon. "The rumours surrounding Thales are not justified," Ranque said in an interview with the Journal des Finances magazine, to be published tomorrow. "I think that it's up to each of our shareholders to make their own decisions but, for the moment, neither Alcatel, nor the state has shown any interest in seeing their stakes change in the short term," he said. Alcatel holds a 9.5 pct stake in Thales and the French state has 31.8 pct. Dassault Aviation holds a 5.9 pct stake, while Thales holds 5.6 pct of its own shares as treasury stock. The remainder, 47.4 pct, is traded on the stock market. Ranque has stated in the past that he eventually hopes to see the French government divest its stake. He reiterated in the Journal des Finances interview that "Thales needs shareholders, like any company, but it is not vital to have support from industrial partners" as shareholders. "I bet that the evolution of Thales' shareholding structure will be surprising. The best things are prepared in secret," he added. Ranque also repeated his aim of developing its naval activities, but refused to comment directly on Thales' interest in the potential acquisition of the German shipyard Howaldtswerke Deutsche Werft AG (HDW), owned by Bank One Corp unit One Equity Partners. "We do not need to own a shipyard to be a big player in the naval business," he said. "The essential thing is to avoid creating a monopolistic structure, which would exclude us from certain contracts and keep us from remaining a major player in this market." Earlier this week, Thales's Francois Lureau, director of the group's Defence unit, said the company is in talks with France's state-owned Direction des Constructions Navales (DCN) to link the companies' naval activities. paris@afxnews.com js/jsa | maywillow | |
