Rohm (6963 JP): Buy into the Tech Sell-Off

By Scott Foster

  • Sales, profits and profit margins continued to rise in 3Q, led by IC and discrete semiconductor sales for automotive and industrial applications.
  • FY Mar-22 guidance looks conservative, but management left it unchanged out of a sense of caution.
  • Having dropped 21% since November, the share price should now recover based on the fundamentals. 

Daifuku – Not a Big Enough Beat to Arrest the Correction

By Mio Kato

  • Daifuku 3QFY21 results were mostly in-line with revenue beating by 1.4% while OP beat by 0.7%. 
  • ¥174.1bn in orders were positive however and the company revised up FY order guidance from ¥565bn to ¥575bn. 
  • Nevertheless, multiples are correcting from extremely elevated levels suggesting even growth next year may not be enough to support the stock here.
