Sun Microsystems had total revenue of $13.88Billion last year with a net income of 403Million. The shares of Sun Microsystems traded on Monday and Tuesday for about $4.80 and skyrocketed since the rumors to almost $9per share. IBM may pay at least $6.5 billion, the Wall Street Journal said today, valuing Sun at almost twice its $4.97 closing price yesterday, but is that enough. Even though Sun Microsystems just recently had to announce to lay off workers in India as part of its plan to cut 6,000 jobs globally, the last quarter's restructuring announcement may translate into cost savings down the road. While Sun's revenue in the quarter increased 7.7 percent to $3.2 billion, net loss (on a GAAP basis) was $209 million, including a $222 million restructuring charge in November 2008, when, on the heels of a $1.68 billion third-quarter loss, which reportedly occurred due to a one-time $1.445 billion impairment expense tied to the $4.1 billion acquisition of StorageTek in 2005. Sun Microsystems experiences according to a media report a steadier low-end software and storage sales in its fiscal 2009 second quarter and, CEO Jonathan Schwartz reportedly said , that the "results for Q2 were in line with what we expected." He cited "double-digit" revenue increase for Sun's growth categories, including CMT (chip multithreading technology) and Open Storage: "Growth categories account for one-third of Sun's product billings." Sun Microsystems shares traded over $17 per share in 2008, over $26 per share in 2007 and had an all time high of over $240 per share in 2000.
