–R.W. Baird lowered its estimates on OmniVision Technologies following weak results and guidance. New estimates are $1 rather than $1.44 for 2008 and $1.13 rather than $1.58 for 2009.
–Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services placed its ratings on Convergys Corp. on CreditWatch with negative implications following the company’s announcement that that it is considering potential separation of its information management business into a separate entity. “We view such a potential event as increasing the company’s business risk profile due to reduced diversity and because the billing segment is the strongest and most profitable part of the company,” said Standard & Poor’s credit analyst Naveen Sarma.
