Kinsus Interconnect Technology (3189 TT)
Target price:
TWD1,068.00 (from TWD588.00)
Share price (31 Jul): TWD635.00 | Up/downside: +68.2%
2Q26 results: gross margin expansion story continues
- Riding on a favourable pricing environment for both ABF/BT substrate
- New upsides from CPU market share and optical transceivers
- Reaffirming Buy (1) call; raising 12M TP to TWD1,068 (from TWD588)
What's new: We provide our latest view on Kinsus after its 2Q26 results.
What's the impact: 2Q26 results beat on profitability. Kinsus released its results on 31 July, with net income of TWD1.31bn (EPS: TWD2.80), beating our estimate and consensus by 25%/11%, respectively. 2Q26 sales (TWD12.5bn; up 13% QoQ; 31% YoY) were on track with the street's expectations; we attribute the QoQ growth to price hikes and rising utilisation rates, given solid AI server demand. Hence, gross margin rose by 4.9pp QoQ to 26.1%, mainly on price hikes, while operating margin further rose by 5.4pp QoQ to 13.4% on gross margin expansion and better opex control.
Business outlook. We hold a positive view on the substrate industry given the enlarging body-size trend and the slower capacity expansion plan, which should lead to a positive pricing trend ahead. Currently, we expect a c.10% price hike per quarter for both ABF/BT substrate from 2H26 to 2027. The higher-than-expected price hike would be key reasons why we lift GM by 1.9/5.0/7.4pp in 2026/27/28E, respectively. In terms of near-term outlook, we expect revenue to grow another 10% in both 3Q26 and 4Q26, due mainly to price hikes, while the new capacity will gradually ramp up from 2027. Based on our current understanding, Kinsus will have 40/50/65/80m ABF unit capacity in 2026-29E, respectively, with YoY growth of c.20%/30%/23%, while Kinsus targets to invest c.TWD14/16/18bn in 2026-28 to boost capacity. From 2028, 4-5 key end customers would purchase additional equipment for Kinsus to produce ABF substrates as Kinsus believes the equipment subsidy method will be better than longterm agreement (LTA) to maintain profitability. In terms of key products, we believe Kinsus controls c.50% market share in Nvidia's CPU product, which may increase to 100%, given the capacity constraints in the industry. Also, due to supply shortage of mSAP HDI, optical transceiver makers would also consider adopting BT substrate to facilitate DSP and optics chipsets. As of now, optical transceivers only account for 1-2% of its revenue but is likely to grow 10x and account for c.5% of revenue in 2027, we estimate.
What we recommend: We lift our 2026-28E earnings by 14-66% YoY to reflect higher-than-expected price hikes for substrates. We reaffirm our Buy (1) rating and raise our 12M TP to TWD1,068, based on a target PER of 36x (prior: 32x; high end of its past-3-year trading range of 10-36x), applied to 1-year-forward EPS, to reflect the improving pricing environment and c.134% earnings CAGR in 2026-2028E. Key downside risks: weaker-thanexpected demand for memory/PCs/gaming GPUs/AI servers.
How we differ: Our 2026-28E EPS are 4-31% above the Bloomberg consensus, likely due to our more bullish view on price hikes.
