Add to APAC Key Call Buy - Taiwan Summit reaffirms the AI Power opportunity
Capturing a robust industry TAM as the leading server power supplier
Delta affirmed a stronger growth profile as AI infrastructure now is over 50% of sales. Our bottom-up model from our APAC Focus (link) estimates a 69% CAGR to US$91.1bn AI server power TAM from 2025-2030 even moderating 2028-30 for hyperscale cash flow and grid power constraints. We see a strong 2027 driven by +65% YoY accelerator die growth, Rubin's ~60% higher rack power and AMD's move to rack-scale systems. 400V/800V becomes a larger driver in 2028-29 as rising power density outgrows lowvoltage distribution. We believe Delta is key beneficiary with its broad grid-to-chip portfolio helping sustain its ~40% share of a rising TAM.
Near-term supply constraints bottoming from Aug and accelerating into Q4.
Supply constraints on Power ICs have tempered Q3 growth from +15-20% QoQ to +1012% QoQ but should grow in Sep and accelerate to double digit QoQ in Q426 and above seasonal Q127 (UBS +3% QoQ) into new ASIC/GPU platform ramps and more supply. Management expects shortages to persist for at least the next several quarters with demand accelerating faster than supply and the supply-demand gap likely widening before narrowing but price hikes rebounding OpMs.
HVDC Adoption Appears Increasingly Inevitable.
HVDC production and shipments have begun and should be modest in 2027 before ramping sharper in the following 1-2 years. As rack power rises from 140kW on GB300 to nearly 250kW on VR200 and potentially higher on Rubin Ultra, management expects space and efficiency constraints to shift power systems out of racks and into side-car or centralized architectures. Delta sees HVDC as the logical solution for power-loss, thermal, and density challenges, with higher-voltage architectures offering multipletimes higher value per watt than current solutions. Delta sees three hyperscalers evaluating 400V, two adopting it for NVIDIA racks initially before converging on 800V.
Reiterate Buy and PT NT$2,750
Delta's stock has pulled back 36% since May following push-outs to NVIDIA's architecture slowing the dedicated power rack ramp-up and elevating supply constraints, pulling it back to 22x/17x 2026-27 EPS. We now see better entry with sales ramping in H226, spec upgrades to ASIC power racks and Rubin at 60% higher TDP over Blackwell and margins holding better than feared. The company should leverage its strong product line, R&D and field support to participate in the key power architecture transitions in the coming years moving the power stack out of the rack and also developing emerging nascent technologies including SST for facility level power transformation and rectification and fuel cells licensing Ceres for medium-term opportunity to supplement the power grid constraint with alternative energy.

UBS EPS and Consensus EPS
The UBS EPS is an adjusted diluted EPS metric. It is calculated using the UBS analyst's interpretation of earnings suitable for valuation purposes divided by the diluted number of shares. This may differ to the way the consensus EPS metric has been calculated.
Valuation Method and Risk Statement
We base our price target on PE multiple valuation.
Delta's businesses include SPS and components for a variety of end-applications, video displays and data networking subsystem and system products. Any changes in these endmarkets could affect our forecasts for Delta. Investment risk could increase/decrease on any deviation from our expectations for end-market demand and competition.
Downside risks for Delta include: severe supply chain constraints; weaker-than-expected PC/ server demand; a slower-than-expected IA recovery; and a slower ramp of 5G in 2022.
