Solid Demand for High-End Components Mitigates the IT Weakness; Semco’s Shares Undervalued
Business Strategy and Outlook
Samsung Electro-Mechanics, or Semco, is the global second supplier of multilayer ceramic capacitors, or MLCCs, which account for 45%-50% of Semco’s revenue and 70%-80% of operating income. MLCCs are necessary to stabilize and control electric flow, and thus necessary for all electronic circuits. We believe the robust demand for MLCCs, mainly from smartphone and automotive manufacturers, will be the driver of Semco’s growth in the midterm.
