Novatek Microelectronics (聯詠 3034) - Macquarie Research

While Novatek’s stock price may still have some pressure due to soft panel outlook, we continue to believe that the company deserves a revisit on its good execution, healthy balance sheet, and positive net cashflow as well as high cash yield. The better-than-expected GM should also ease some margin erosion concern. Value-driven investors may consider Novatek and Himax (HIMX US, US$1.92, OP, TP: US$3.2).

Faraday (智原 3035) - Deutsche Bank Research

Weakening growth outlook; retain Sell

The company is competing with fabless customers directly by working with system makers. This should trigger market share loss in fabless customers in the long term. We expect the company to experience gross margin erosion and an earnings growth slowdown from 2009 onwards due to an unfavorable product mix
and poor design capability on advanced technology nodes. We maintain our earnings forecast and TP and reiterate our Sell rating.

Our TP is based on 12.8x US GAAP 2009E EPS, which is in line with the 2003-07 trough. We believe this is justified by its 2009E-10E earnings CAGR of 4%, which is lower than the 2003-07 CAGR of 48%. We believe growth deceleration may lead the stock to trade close to the historical trough. Upside risks include faster
share gain in system makers and technology migration.

Phison Electronics (群聯 8299) - Macquarie Research

A possible survivor, but too expensive

Following disappointing 3Q08 results and our conservative view on NAND Flash, we cut our earnings forecast and target price significantly for Phison. Our rating remains at Underperform and our new target price is NT$30 (8x 2009E PER) from NT$110 previously.

Our stance on Phison reflects our long-standing conservative view of major NAND Flash players, supported by the disappointing 3Q08 results seen across the region. We await clearer signals of a growth in NAND Flash demand before reviewing our investment view.

Ralink Technology (雷凌 3534) - Macquarie Research

The stock price was relatively resilient recently, we believe, due to Street expectations for its sales and GM recovery. However, we suspect the disappointing sales and GM outlook will prompt a further sell-off. We maintain an Underperform and will review our rating when we see more-significant market-share gains and/or a stabilisation in Ralink’s margin trend.

Realtek Semiconductor (瑞昱 2379) - Macquarie Research

We maintain our Underperform rating on Realtek and cut our TP to NT$42 (from NT$50), still based on the ROE-g/COE-g fair value appraisal. We believe the soft 4Q08 and 2009 outlook will be a negative catalyst for the stock price.

We suggest selling the stock. We believe the recent resilient performance will end soon, as the company’s disappointing outlook and earnings cuts by the street could be negative catalysts for the stock price. We suspect the stock price will test the ROE-g/COE-g fair value (NT$42) again if not break. Maintain Underperform.

Sunplus Technology (凌陽 2401) - Goldman Sachs Research

3Q below expectations, no visibility on weak consumer demand

Sunplus reported 3Q08 EPS NT$0.31, 42% lower than our estimate. The company missed our sales forecast by 22%; however, the main upside for its operating profit (NT$218 mn vs. our estimate of NT$160 mn) comes from the better GM (46.9% vs. our estimate of 40.8%) – mostly contributed by higher Silicon Image royalty income, FX gains, and better product mix. The non-operating loss of NT$15 mn was well below our estimate of operating income of NT$203 mn due to the investment loss from its subsidiaries. Management did not provide clear 4Q08 guidance, but was generally more cautious on weak consumer demand visibility.

Global Mixed-mode Technology (致新 8081) - Goldman Sachs Research

Global Mixed-mode Technology (GMT) announced its audited 3Q results. The top line result was in line with our estimates. GMT’s 2008 3Q EPS was NT$3.54, which was lower than our estimate by 7%. We slightly revise down our 2008E GAAP EPS forecasts by 3% but revise our 2009E GAAP EPS and 2010E GAAP EPS by 1%, respectively. Our new GAAP EPS estimates are NT$8.82, NT$9.61 and NT$11.66 for 2008E, 2009E and 2010E, respectively. We have not changed our investment thesis or Neutral rating.

Sell: Weaker Sales Signal Pricing Squeeze; Lower Target Price

Reiterate Sell (3H) — We reiterate our negative view on Ralink and lower our target price to NT$78, on 10-11x 09E earnings. Given rising uncertainty and more order cutbacks, we fear the competitive pricing environment will continue to worsen and affect Ralink into 1H09E.

Takeaways from analyst meeting

Retain Underperform
Despite a 15% share price correction in recent months, the stock still trades at a premium P/E to its local and global peers. We do not see any near-term catalysts for the stock given the uncertain tech demand and macro headwinds. We could turn more positive on the stock when we have better visibility on its new product delivery. Retain Underperform with PO of NT$145 (14x FY09 EPS).

802.11n is the most exciting product for Realtek in 2009
Realtek is scheduled to sample out its 802.11n single chip by year-end. On one side, we notice Realtek uses 65nm process (ahead of Ralink’s 90nm process) on its 802.11n single chip with better cost structure. On
the other hand, we notice Realtek further integrated PA (USD 0.5-0.6 cost saving) into its single chip (MAC/Baseband/RF). We believe the revenue from WLAN ICs will contribute 12% of total revenue, up from
10% in 2008, indicating nearly 20% y-y growth.

Near-term order flow slightly better
Due to inventory adjustment by clients and cuts to orders, Realtek’s 4Q sales fell to NT$3.08bn (down 36% QoQ and 17% YoY). While overall PC demand remains weak, Realtek has seen a slight order flow improvement after three consecutive months of decline. Reaktek will hold analyst meeting on 3 February. We expect the company to guide a 10-20% QoQ sales decline in 1Q.

Novatek (聯詠 3034) - Citi Research

Buy: Leverage Play Ahead of Taiwan TFT Recovery

Re-iterate Buy — Novatek had a prolonged down-cycle due to weak panel and monitor demand. While op. margin will trend lower in 1Q09, it now has a chance to win outsourced Japanese orders, and will remain as a key supplier to the TFT supply chain. With leveraged effect on driver restocking when the Taiwan panel makers see recovery, we re-iterate our Buy (1M) on Novatek.

Taiwan hardware signals – Industry Overview (Merrill Lynch)

Cautious but not pessimistic

Surprisingly, upside for September; milder 4Q
Taiwan hardware sales for September increased 13% MoM, surprisingly ahead of our estimate of 10%, despite concerns about the weakening economy in Europe and the US. The upside came from solid NB PC/Netbook demand, stronger demand from China and ramp ups of new handsets. We expect 4Q sales to grow 5-10% QoQ (vs. 10-20% in the past), with a 5% MoM increase in October.

PC: Supported by Netbooks and China
Combined PC shipments increased 13% MoM to 21.2mn in September and were roughly in line with our estimate. We note that demand for low-priced consumer NB PCs (regular/Netbook) and motherboards from China remained solid despite some shortfall from OEM’s DT PCs and corporate/high-end NB PCs. We expect
4Q units to grow only 2% QoQ with the peak month in October (up 4% MoM).

Handset: Remain cautious, despite short-term sell-in
Revenue for handset suppliers increased another 10% MoM on average, helped by new model launches and strength in smartphones (Apple, RIMM and HTC). We think their positive views for 4Q are risky (>10% QoQ vs MLe: 5-10%), despite an early pull-in. We recommend that investors remain on the sidelines given
further pressure on ASP and decelerating unit growth.

Slight upside for 3Q results; but downside for 4Q/2009
The majority of our universe, particularly for the NB PC sector, have met or exceeded our 3Q revenue estimates. Along with higher contract prices, favorable FX rate and stable, if not lower, material costs, we expect most PC companies to at least meet our 3Q earnings expectations. However, we note that we might
need to revise down our revenue assumptions for 4Q08 and even 2009.

Top picks: Acer, Compal, Simplo
Our top picks for the hardware sector are Acer(宏碁 ; 2353), Compal(仁寶 ; 2324) and Simplo(新普 ; 2324). Acer and Simplo are well positioned to capture emerging growth from Netbooks for 2009 (over 50% YoY). Among NB PC ODMs and EMS, Compal offers the best value with lowered expectations. In addition, all three companies have strong balance sheets/net cash and decent cash flow. Acer is also in the most preferred lists for both Taiwan and regional technology.

Richtek Technology (立錡 ; 6286)- Merrill Lynch Research

Waiting for better visibility on new product cycle

Analyst meeting; no details on op profit and bottom line
Richtek held its 3Q analyst meeting today. Its 3Q sales of NT$2bn, up 15% QoQ and 16.5% YoY, are in line with our estimate. Gross margin climbed to 39.4% in 3Q, which is better than our estimate of 38.5% thanks to NTD depreciation and cost down efforts. However, the company didn’t provide any details about its
operating profit and bottom line at the analyst meeting. We expect its EPS to reach NT$3.3, up 31% QoQ and down 18% YoY.

Better-than-expected 4Q margin guidance
Management has turned less negative on its 4Q outlook and is guiding a sequential sales decline of 4-9% and gross margin of 38-40%. It indicated that demand from local handset makers in China remains solid while PC-related products should decline in line with seasonality. The contribution from new products such as high-voltage power management IC and LCD system power management remains low; better visibility is expected in 2009.

When to turn positive?
Despite its recent 30% share price correction amid the financial turmoil, Richtek’s share price is it still trades at a premium P/E to its local and global peers. We see the risk of de-rating ahead given Richtek’s deteriorating transparency, uncertain tech demand and macro headwinds. We’ll turn more positive on the stock when we have better visibility on its new product delivery.

Taiwan Fabless (IC設計)- BNP Paribas

• NEGATIVE across the sector; the economic slowdown will lead to industry consolidation.
• Valuation de-rating for the short term (to 12x from 15x earlier); until 1H09 for Taiwan IC makers’ (10-15% discount).
• In the long view: We expect Realtek and Richtek to take the lead as likely industry consolidators.

De-rating a forerunner of consolidation
Massive consolidation of Taiwan IC design houses Taiwan IC design houses’ net income growth (43% y-y down in 1H08 for leading 12 IC design houses) has underperformed significantly (compared to the top five foundry makers, which are 13% y-y up), indicating that there will be serious consolidation across the sector. We believe the valuation is de-rating for Taiwan IC design houses, as a reflection of the upcoming industry consolidation. Our updated valuation for Taiwan major IC design houses is 12x 12-month forward earnings.

Consolidation trend in 2009 appears likely
We believe that 2008-2009 will show a clear trend towards consolidation among IC design houses. We believe this is intended to achieve: 1) a drive towards economies of scale and earnings efficiency, and 2)
second-tier players making a move towards spin offs in order to ensure their survival. Significant de-rating happening currently (to 12x from 15x earlier) will lead to consolidation.

Short-term de-rating; long-term valuation re-rating
We expect valuation de-rating until 1H09 for Taiwan IC makers’ (10-15% discount as usual). However, there will be re-rating later, as world-class IC makers emerge (after consolidation). This should help Taiwan
makers catch up to the same valuation as global IC makers.

Realtek (瑞昱 ; 2379) and Richtek(立錡 ; 6286) are on our watch list
We have a cautious view in the near-term, in light of the global deceleration in the semiconductor industry from 4Q08-1Q09, and because inventories are currently being built up in 4Q08. In the longer view, we prefer Realtek and Richtek, as they are likely to lead consolidation across the IC industry.

Hon Hai Precision (鴻海 ; 2317) – Goldman Sachs

Removed from Asia Pacific Buy List

Expect strong 3Q, followed by weak 4Q and 2009. D/G to Neutral

What happened
We downgrade Hon Hai (HH) from Buy to Neutral. HH reported Sept parent sales of NT$157mn, 8% higher than we expected. However, we think 4Q growth may be below seasonality due to desktop (DT) order cancellations and possible weaker than seasonal consumer demand. We believe 2009 visibility is low and more likely to show downside than upside on weak macro conditions.

We revise down our 2008 revenues/ earnings forecasts by 1.7%/ 8.6%, 2009 revenues/ earnings forecasts by 13.5%/ 12.1%, and 2010 revenues/ earnings forecasts by 14.9%/ 8.7%. HH’s share price increased 59.9% (versus a 10.4% drop in the TWSE) since we added it to the Buy list on Sept 2, 2004.

Current view
We expect HH’s 4Q sales growth will be below seasonality (up 8% qoq) due to weak macro conditions and high 3Q comparative base. Our industry checks suggest US OEMs have started to cut 4Q DT orders on weak replacement demand and market share losses to NB. We believe the expected 4Q sales increase from consolidating Sanmina-SCI revenues and PS3/iPod Nano business may be offset by a sequential drop in iPhone shipments. Moreover, we believe 2009 growth may slow on macro concerns. We reduce our 2009 NB growth forecast to reflect delays introducing Intel’s new CPUs and potential market share shift to Quanta for Sony’s NB orders. Unless HH buys Dell’s for-sale global assembly centers, we think Hon Hai’s 2009 growth could be capped.

Because HH is often considered a proxy for the economy, we also think HH could be priced to reflect the current difficult macro conditions. We believe HH’s 8%/ 9% share price underperformance versus the TWSE/ TWELEC since the recent peak partly reflects expectations of weaker earnings and partially reflect economic
concerns.

We lower our 12-mth TP to NT$115, based on 11X 2009E EPS (from NT$166, based on 14X 2009E EPS), implying 2.4X one quarter trailing PB, versus historical trend of 1.9X-7.7X.

Key risks include earlier than we expected macro turnaround and faster than we expected market share gain.

Hon Hai Precision (鴻海 ; 2317) – Goldman Sachs

Valuations may be close to trough, but fundamentals likely peaked

What’s changed
Hon Hai reported October sales of NT$169 bn (up 8% mom, up 29% yoy), slightly better than market expectations; but we think this is likely the peak in 4Q, vs. the historical peak in the month of December. Consistent with our previous commentary that Hon Hai’s 4Q momentum may be below normal seasonality due to DT weakness and demand slowdown for iPhone, Cisco (Hon Hai’s key customer for the networking devices business) has guided CY4Q08 sales growth to decline 5%-10% yoy. In addition, our industry checks suggest the NB and TV businesses may also be below our original forecast for 2009. As such, we lower our
2008E/2009E/2010E revenue estimates by 0.7%/4.2%/7.2% and 2008E/2009E/2010E earnings estimates by 1%/11%/12%.

Valuation
We maintain our Neutral rating, but cut our 12-m target price to NT$86 (on 9X our new 2009E EPS) from NT$107 (10X 2009E EPS). We lower the target multiple to discount macro and relocation risks. Our target price implies 1.7X trailing one-quarter P/B, versus historical range of 1.4X-5.0X.

Hon Hai Precision (鴻海 ; 2317) – Morgan Stanley Research

Growing Deleverage Pains

Downgrade to Equal-weight: We lower our earnings estimates by 12% and 16% for 2009 and 2010, respectively, to discount deteriorating end demand across the board that would affect Hon Hai’s top-line
momentum despite incremental new project wins. Slower revenues would cap OM expansion even if Hon
Hai could quickly streamline its cost structure, and thereby hurt bottom-line performance. We cut our price
target to NT$65 to reflect our reduced earnings forecasts and mid-term growth rate. The stock trades below 1x 2009e P/B, vs. 0.5x P/B average for other EMS peers. Our SOP analysis shows its core business still trades at 10x P/E for 2009e. We believe the stock is unlikely to perform until signs of OM bottoming emerge.

Taiwan IC design (IC設計) – Macquarie Research

2009 – seeking diamonds in the sand

2008 review and 2009 brief outlook
2008 was difficult for the Taiwan IC design sector with negative impact seen in terms of employee bonus, NT$ appreciation, demand slowdown and global competition. Unfortunately, we expect 2009 to remain tough as the risk to demand is on the downside, new killer applications are absent, and with continued pressure on ASP and margins from competition and customers. Thus, we believe investors need to be extremely selective.

Limited drivers across the board …
We do not see many meaningful drivers in 2009. Demand in all major sectors, including PCs, handsets, and panels, is likely to be muted. Blu-ray discs (BD) and solid-state drives (SSD) are more possible as a 2H09/2010 story due to their high cost. Netbooks may be the only high growth segment to provide relief for PC-focused IC companies, but shipment growth is likely to be offset by value erosion. Analog ICs may see muted growth from competition and consolidation.

Hon Hai Precision (鴻海 ; 2317) - Macquarie Research

Why you should pick me

We recommend HHP over TSMC. Although TSMC (2330 TT, NT$41, UP, TP: NT$35) has superior leadership and management in the foundry sector, we believe HHP will begin to outperform TSMC due to its strong downside support and stronger upside potential than TSMC.

Given its solid profitability, we do not think HHP will trade below its 09 book, which implies the stock has less than 10% downside from here. However, TSMC’s downside could be much greater given its outlook for losses, shrinking ROE performance and stretched P/BV valuation. Even if the cycle turns positive, HHP should outperform TSMC. HHP is trading at 7-8x 09E PER (its historical low) and 1-1.1x P/BV with ROE of 14-15%, while TSMC is at 2.5-2.6x P/BV with ROE of only 3%. There is more scope for HHP to rise by 50% in an upcycle as the stock would trade at only 11-12x PER, which is still at the low end of its trading range. Based on the same portfolio performance, TSMC would have to trade up to 3.5-4x P/BV, which we see as highly unlikely.

Looking beyond the trough ; retain Buy

Lower estimates and PO, but retain Buy rating
2008 was a tough year for Compal, dragged down by the NB market slowdown and poor results from its LT holding affiliates. Hence, we lower our 2008/09 EPS by 8%/21% respectively, and reduce our 12-month PO to NT$22.5 (8x P/E, 1x BVPS) from NT$27.5. Although 1Q09 momentum should remain weak, we think it
is a good opportunity for investors to Buy the stock before its shipments resume in 2Q09 (Netbook and Toshiba share gain). Currently, it is trading at 0.8x P/BV and offers ~10% cash yield.

2009 operating environment stays tough; capital raising an added concern

2009 to be another tough year; stay Neutral: With high exposure to corporate market (desktops, networking) and discretionary consumer products (MP3 player, game console, DSC), we expect Hon Hai’s earnings to decline sharply in 2009. In addition, weaker end markets and loosening labor supply in China should make the benefits of new lowcost locations less attractive. Working capital issues also continue to weigh down the near-term outlook, leading to potential dilutive fund raising. We cut FY09/10E EPS by 13/12% and reduce our DCF based Jun-09 PT to NT$58. Key risk is sharp recovery in end markets.

Gap between forecast and shipments narrows

Top picks: Acer and Compal for netbooks
Acer and Compal are our top picks, given their better growth momentum from late 1Q on new netbook launch and strong BS/execution. Acer should benefit from ongoing restructuring at both Asustek and Lenovo and huge losses at its Japanese competitors (ie, Toshiba/Sony). As for Compal, we expect the company to be a share gainer in 2009 among the top 4 ODMs, given its wins at Acer (netbook) and Toshiba.

Wistron (緯創 ; 3231) - Goldman Sachs Research

Focus on fundamentals after GDR issuance; still Conviction Buy

What’s changed
Wistron’s share price has been volatile since peaking June 1 at NT$54.5. We believe this is a technical and seasonal pullback, and may also reflect market uncertainty related to the 150 mn GDR share issuance on June 15 at NT$49, representing a 2% discount to Wistron’s last close; the total offering size was approximately US$223.5 million. In addition to the nine reasons to buy Wistron we discussed in our June 1 note, our industry checks indicate that HP will be awarding 1H10 orders to major ODMs in the near future, of which Wistron may gain share from peers, in our view. Also, Wistron has said the handset/push mail device from a US OEM may contribute 5% of its 2010 revenues in its conference call with investors on
June 12, indicating 3mn units for 2010 if we assume an ASP of US$300.

Expect slower 2H; price correction may continue

Fine tune estimates, retain our cautious view
We fine tune our estimates for Inventec’s 2009/10 earnings (with quarterly forecasts for 2010), with PO at NT$15.0 (rollover to 2009/10E mid-cycle P/E of 8x). With potential earnings downside in 2Q and slower momentum in 2H, we expect further share price correction. We retain our Underperform rating for the
stock and will revisit when see improvement in earnings quality.

2Q09 could only meet low-end guidance
Our recent check shows Inventec could only meet the low-end of its 10-15% QoQ sales and NB unit growth guidance for 2Q, due to a delay in new model shipments (despite a double-digit MoM rebound in June). In addition, we are also concerned about potential FX losses due to significant currency swings in 2Q09 (Inventec usually incurs huge FX losses when the NTD appreciates by over 2% per quarter).
