MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc. produces the raw material wafers used by semiconductor manufacturers in the production of integrated circuits (ICs).
The decision to supply wafers to the solar industry paid huge rewards in 2007 and 2008, as demand for polysilicon raced ahead of supply. The Solar business and the 300mm business are both high-margin products. The spot price of polysilicon has been slashed from a peak of $400 per/kg to the $60-$70 per/kg range.
The stock is significantly undervalued. We are reiterating our Buy rating on the shares of WFR.
