Comeback of Wintel versus Apple
The Wintel camp targets to get 20% of Tablet market by mid-2013
98% yoy growth in Tablet driving mobile PC growth from 2012 onwards
Initiate coverage with BUY on new earnings growth driver from Tablet casing and undemanding valuation at 45% discount to peer.
Intel and Microsoft (Wintel) target to get 20% of the Tablet market by mid-2013. The
media Tablet landscape is expected to change dramatically and we believe Ju Teng will be
the direct beneficiary given (1) long established strategic partnership with top tier
Taiwanese Notebook ODMs on plastic/metal casing and (2) Non-Apple PC brands will be
keen on launching new Tablets for gaining market share in the low-end mass market
reaping the robust Tablet growth.
Rebounding notebook shipment 2H12 onwards driving by Ultrabook and Win 8. After
a tough year in 2011 with global PC shipments up only 1.8% yoy, slipped from 13.7% yoy
in 2010 due to weakened consumer demand and the Thai Flooding, IDC forecast PC sales
will rebound in 2012 with 5.0% yoy growth to 371mn units, mainly driven by a robust 8.1%
notebook book growth to 226mn units, thanks to (1) Ultrabook which is estimated to
contribute 15% of notebook sales in 2012 and (2) Microsoft new OS – Win 8 which is
expected to be officially launched in Oct 2012. Notably, Gartner estimates Media Tablet to
grow at 98% yoy to 119mn in 2012, while Apple’s iPad will account for 61.4% of the Tablet
market, down 5.2 ppt yoy from 2011, and Win 8 Tablet share will increase to 4% or 5.0mn
units in 2012, from ZERO in 2011.
Initiate coverage with a BUY rating on undemanding valuation and new growth
drivers. Since the debut of Apple iPad in April 2010, Ju Teng share price slipped from its
record high HK$8.35 in Jan 2010 to HK$1.65 currently, representing 6x FY12E PE, mainly
due to (1) netbook’s failure in gaining mobile PC market share, (2) stagnant growth of the
overall PC market and (3) Ju Teng’s limited exposure in the metal Tablet casing market.
We initiate BUY with TP HK$2.50 based on 9x FY12E PE on Ju Teng, representing 20%
discount to industry average, given (1) the emerging Win 8 Tablet casing growth, (2) a
rebound in overall PC sales from 2012 onwards driven by Ultrabook and Win XP
replacement and (3) a 38% earnings CAGR in 2012 – 2015E.
(FY11 HK$0.08 final ex-dividend date: 21 May)
Risk: (1) Slowdown in global notebook demand, (2) failure to venturing into the Tablet
market by Win 8, and (3) intensifying competition in the mobile device casing market.

Intel and Microsoft target to get 20% share in the Tablet market by mid-2013
Microsoft’s new OS Win 8 aims at the booming Tablet market, from 0% in
2011 to 5-10% in 2012. After the developer and consumer preview of Win 8
released in early 2012, Microsoft received good feedback on its new OS – Win 8,
especially the new “Metro UI”, which comes with touch function enhancement,
and improved background processing management which aims to improve
energy consumption efficiency, according to industry sources. All the new
features and innovation of Win 8 aims to improving its mobility and user
experience. In our view, the new OS will helps PC brand players regaining their
market share in the Tablet market as well as driving notebook shipments growth,
especially the Ultrabook segment.
The new 28nm Intel chip Ivy Bridge CPU processor released on 24th April also
aims to improve the overall performance. According to industry sources, the new
chip has a 10% performance improvement in terms of energy saving as
compared to the previous generation (Sandy Bridge chip), in particular, the
improvement on energy saving will likely to boost notebook and Ultrabook battery
performance, hence their shipment growth. However, according to the industry
sources, the yield on this new chip remains low and hence Intel may ship the new
chip to desktop manufacturers first with notebook and Ultrabook shipments will
ramp up as late as June 2012 and it is expected to account for 15% of notebook
shipments.
We believe the market will get a clear outlook on the potential impact of Win 8 OS
on the Tablet and notebook markets in the upcoming third preview of Win 8 in
June as well as the pickup in Ultrabook shipments in 2H12.
We see Intel and Microsoft (“Wintel” alliance) are well-prepared to compete in the
Tablet and notebook market in 2H12 with the official release of Win 8 currently
schedule in Oct 2012.

Recap the current Tablet landscape. Since the debut of Apple iPad in April
2010, Apple continuously dominates the Tablet market despite Google’s Android
system also ventured into the market in Feb 2011. Among all Tablet and notebook
brands in market, Apple ranked the top in terms of shipments worldwide, thanks
to its robust Tablet sales in 2011 despite a weak Mac notebook sale.
Exhibit 3: Notebook and Tablet PC shipments by brands, 2011

Apple’s iPad have an absolute competitive advantage featured by its content-rich
AppStore. According to Gartner, Apple will continuously dominate the Tablet
market in the coming 5 years with market share gradually down from 67% in 2011
to 46% by 2016.
Despite Google released a version of its Android OS (3.0 Honeycomb) for Tablet
device with the first Android Tablet released on Feb 2011, lack of (1) mobile
applications tailored for media Tablets, (2) scale in the ecosystem for mobile app
engineers and (3) low monetization value of Android users versus premium iOS
users who are willing to pay for a mobile app, all together resulting in the failure
for PC brands to penetrate into the Tablet market except Samsung Galaxy and
Amazon Kindle Fire.
Due to PC brands are more focus on hardware design and lack of software
development skill set, PC brands are essentially hard to compete and gain
market share from Apple in the Tablet market. The success of Samsung and
Amazon in this segment is attributed to (1) the smaller size and hence the lighter
weight of the device, (2) the available of a digital pen as an alternative input
device and (3) optimization on the Android platform such as Amazon e-book
platform as well as Amazon appstore. Hence, we believe the launch of Microsoft
Win 8 OS for Tablet is able to solve most of software issue currently block the
door of PC brands in Tablet market. The marketplace (AppStore of Microsoft) is
fully supported by Microsoft and the ecosystem of Win OS Tablet is much more
competitive with high motivation for mobile app engineers and enterprise IT
department to develop and deploy new apps on Win OS Platform instead of
Google Android Platform, especially the enterprise IT departments are already
very familiar with the MS Win OS platform, which has an edge in the area of
security issues.
Despite whether the Win 8 OS will gain 8% market share as a leading industry

research firm’s estimate or 20% as industry sources indicate, no doubt Win 8 will
directly hit the Tablet market and we expect Win 8 Tablets will ramp up
substantially in 4Q12 covering low-to-high end (US$200-US$1,000), which will be
also an edge to the iPad (US$600). Our channel check also suggests that PC
brands have already started to prepare the prototype of Win 8 Tablet model
based on the latest release of Win 8. We see there is an upside risk on the
Gartner’s 4.9mn Win OS Tablet shipments in 2012 given (1) high incentive for PC
brands to venture into the Tablet market given the robust demand in the coming 5
years and (2) the strong “Wintel” alliance aiming at the Tablet market.
According to Industry source, HP, Dell, Samsung and Lenovo have already
started the R&D on Win 8 Tablet.

PC brands are keen to participate in Tablet market despite thin margin.
Notwithstanding PC brands are keen to participate in the Tablet market to gain
market share, the profitability on Tablet device with lower ASP (i.e. US$300) may
not be as profitable as notebooks, which have higher ASP (US$600 – US$2,000).
For example, US$600 for a typical office PC and US$2,000 for a high-end 3D
gaming enabled Ultrabook.
Instead of profitability per unit, the booming demand on Tablet device is more
likely a volume game for the PC brands. We expect PC brands will develop
Tablets and Ultrabook models in parallel to reap the profit in the market for
consumer electronic products.

market share will ramp up from
0% in 2011 to 4% in 2012 while

conservative estimate as top tier

Win 8 Tablet accordingly to the
industry source.

According to Displaysearch, the mobile PC market is estimated to grow at 31%
yoy in 2012 to 285.4mn units, of which 25% will be Tablets, up 256% yoy to
72.7mn, outpacing the 12% yoy growth for notebooks to 187.5mn units. In
addition, Displaysearch estimates the contribution by Tablet PC will further ramp
up from 25% in 2011 to ~50% level in 2017 with 39.4% shipments CAGR in
2011 – 2017, outpacing the 18.2% shipments CAGR for notebooks during the
same period.

The three concerns on Ju Teng will be solved in 2H12. Ju Teng share price
have topped in Jan 2010 at HK$8.35 and underperformed the market till late 2011.
The main concerns on Ju Teng were mainly on:
1. The rapid ramp up in Apple iPad that adopted metal casing supplied by
Catcher (2474 TT, NR) as Ju Teng has limited exposure on metal casing,
2. Stagnant shipment of netbooks (aka mini-notebooks) and
3. Substitution effect from notebook to Tablet due to the success of Apple
Tablet in the consumer market.

However, we believe the three concerns on Ju Teng will be solved in 2H12
onwards. Ju Teng share price started rallying in late 2H11 as the company
revised up its casing pricing that helped improving the company’s profitability and
the new notebook product – Ultrabooks are scheduled to be rolled out massively
in 2H12. These two factors solved investor concerns on the stagnant shipment of
netbook with hope to maintain notebook PC market by the new slim-design
Ultrabook.
In our view, notebook and Tablet are two distinct markets with different user
experience, we don’t see Ultrabook will directly help PC brands gaining any
Tablet market share, but we believe Tablets enable PC brands to position
themselves better in the Tablet market. Microsoft’s new OS Win 8 and Intel’s Ivy
Bridge chip will directly benefit Ultrabooks due to improved software and
hardware performance such as (1) full support of touch screen in Win 8 and (2)
better ecosystem as compare to Android AppStore like Microsoft’s Marketplace.
On the other hand, we believe Tablets with Win 8 OS are able to regain market
share for non-Apple PC brand and most top-tier PC brands will launch their own
Win 8 Tablets from 4Q12 onwards.
Leveraging on its dominant market position and well-established
relationship with top tier Taiwanese NB ODMs. Ju Teng is a leading notebook
PC plastic casing suppliers for all top tier PC brands with 30% market share in the
global notebook market. (incl PC and Mac). The long-established business
relationship with Taiwanese NB ODMs, which accounted for over 90% of global
notebook PC shipments, and various JV with some of them will enable Ju Teng to
secure and ramp up its Tablet casing shipments, of which Ju Teng only had very
limited exposure due to the failure of non-Samsung PC brands Tablets, which are
all based on the Android platform.

Ju Teng will directly benefit from the change in supply chain driving by Win 8 OS Tablet. Foxconn, a subsidiary of Hon Hai Group, is the primary ODM for Apple iPad. The relationship between casing supplier and the ODM is crucial for the casing supplier to get orders from the PC brands, which in turn are the direct customers of the ODMs. Given Ju Teng’s strong strategy alliance with Compal and Winstron, as well as the other three top-tier Taiwanese NB ODMs, namely Quanta, Inventec and Pegatron, we believe Ju Teng will be able to secure a material exposure in the Tablet casing market once Win 8 OS is launched in Oct 2012.

Win 8 Tablets - the new growth driver behind 38% earnings CAGR in
2012-15E. Unlike traditional notebook product which required 4-6 pcs of parts for
a complete casing, either in plastic or metal or both, Tablets generally require only
1 pcs of casing per unit. However, given the rapid ramp up of Tablet penetration
from 25% in 2011 to ~50% in 2017 and the robust 39.4% shipment CAGR in the
coming 5 years and over 60% yoy growth in 2012 and 2013 as compared to
low-teen yoy growth on notebook shipment, we believe the successful venturing
into the Tablet casing market will be a new key growth for Ju Teng as it not only
solves the issue of Tablet substitution but the Win 8 Tablet will create a new
earnings growth driver for Ju Teng.
We assume Ju Teng will take 30% share in the Win 8 OS Tablet market, which is
similar to its current market share in NB casing. Successfully venturing into the
Tablet casing market by PC brands will contribute 10%/62% earnings
enhancement in FY12/13E.
Based on our currently estimate, our FY12/13E EPS is 11%/22% higher than
market consensus. Should Win 8 Tablet gain market share in the Tablet market
4Q12 onwards, we believe there is a potential upward revision on earnings
estimate on Ju Teng in the upside.
In addition, the new earnings growth driver from Tablet casing will also provide a
downside cushion on current consensus earnings estimate in case Ultrabook
ramp up is slower than market expect.

Rebounding notebook sales in 2012 driven by Ultrabooks and Win 8
Tough year for most PC brand players in 2011. Wordwide PC shipments grew
1.8% in 2011 due to weakening consumer demand and economic downturn. The
mature markets, accounted for 43% worldwide shipments in 2011, shrinked by
9% comparing to 2010. PC vendors struggled to maintain consumer interests in
the market and the consumers was holding off making PC purchases due to
strong Tablet substitution, especially from Apple’s iPad, which proved to be a
powerful distraction, according to IDC.
However, IDC forecast a rebound in worldwide PC shipments in 2012 with 8.1%
yoy growth on portable PC to 226.4mn units (i.e. notebook, Tablet) and 0.5% yoy
growth on desktop PC to 144.6mn units, mainly driven by the new Wintel platform
on Ivy Bridge chip and Win 8 OS.

1Q12 PC shipments growth rebounded faster than market expectation with
Lenovo and HP gained more market share. 1Q12 PC shipments were up 1.9%
yoy to 100.0mn units. HP remained no.1 with 0.3ppt market share gain as
comparing to a year ago. Notably, Lenovo and Asus recorded a 28.1% and 21.3%

The global top 5 PC brands are all JuTeng’s key end-customers and they
contributed around 70% of JuTeng sales. We believe JuTeng is able to leverage
its dominant market position in NB casing to reap the 8.1% rebounding in portable
PC in 2012.
In addition, any robust ramp up in shipment of Tablets by any one of the global
top 5 brands means JuTeng’s Tablet casing business will get a boost. We believe
the likely early drivers will be HP and Lenovo as HP’s Win 8 Tablet models
already leaked to the market, according to Neowin, and Lenovo is aggressively
exploring the global mobile PC device market in order to increase its market
share further.

Ultrabook helps regaining growth momentum from 4Q12. Despite the market
is speculating the postpone of Ultrabook shipments ramp up to 2013 due to high
price on Ultrabook specific components, such as uni-body casing and solid state
drive (SSD), as well as Intel’s reluctance in reducing price on Ivy Bridge chips and
hence leaving Ultrabook pricing remains uncompetitive at US$1,000 levels
versus Amazon Kindle Fire (US$200), Apple iPad (US$600) and traditional
notebooks (US$500-700) and the upcoming MacBook Air (US$699).
We do not believe Ultrabook will help PC brands to gain the market share in
Tablet given they are two different category of consumer electronic devices.
Tablet is a consumer electronic products more for casual use than serious
business works, except for some very specific tasks, eg as an input device for
doing field surveys. Tablet is also not designed for works with heavy
alphanumeric inputs due to the absence of an integrated keyboard. Attached or
wireless keyboard is a solution but they almost completely nullify the key
advantage of Tablets, ie the ultra-portability.
However, we believe there will only be a minor delay rather than a complete
failure of the entire Ultrabook concept. Ultrabooks’ slim design, lightweight and
hence improved mobility as well as energy consumption should make them a
replacement for mainstream notebook once prices come down to more
competitive levels which, in our view, should be in the range of US$700 or below.
The current high prices are mainly attributable to expensive Ultrabook
components (e.g. Intel Ivy Bridge 28nm CPU) and lack of 28nm manufacturing
capacity for the Ivy-Bridge chips. However, we believe large semiconductor
manufacturer such as TSMC will quickly to adopt the 28nm manufacturing
process in 2H12, which will help lowering the overall cost of Ultrabooks. We
expect the inflection point of Ultrabook will start to emerge in 4Q12 when Win 8 is
officially launched and growth will accelerate in full speed in 2013.

Replacement demand on Win XP also contributes the growth. Despite
Microsoft’s Win 7 have been launched for a year while Win XP, which was
launched in 2010 and still dominated the current installed base of PCs with 46%
market share in April 2012. However, as Microsoft have announced to terminate
the official support on Win XP by 2014, this is likely to stimulate replacement
demand for PC given the replacement cycle was already delayed due to the
financial crisis and subsequent economic downturn. Given the concerns of
corporate security, large enterprises as well as MNC have to upgrade their OS
and we believe Win 8 OS is the logical choice, especially for notebook/portable
devices given its outperformance and enhancement on mobility and battery life.
We see Ju Teng to benefit from the replacement demand driven by the migration
from Win XP to Win 8. We are confident that JuTeng is able to achieve the
company guided 15% revenue growth yoy in the coming years given (1)
Ultrabook ramp up in 2013, (2) Win XP-to Win 8 replacement demand, (3) the
launch of the new Wintel platform – Win 8 + Ivy Bridge chip.

Ultrabook and metal casing driving margin expansion. JuTeng expects a
1-2ppt margin expansion in 2012 mainly driven by increased ASP in 2H11 and
increasing demand and contribution from metal casing. However, we believe the
margin expansion will be modest in 2012 given notebook shipment will only ramp
up in 2H12 and Ultrabook ramp up is likely postponed to 2013 given high ASP.
However, we believe shipment growth remains robust given the rebound in NB
shipments in 2H12. We estimate 1.8ppt/2.5ppt margin improvement in FY12/13E
as metal casing enjoys at least 5% higher in margin than plastic ones and
30%-100% premium on ASP while we estimate shipments mix for plastic/metal to
be 79%/21% in FY13E as compared to 88%/12% in FY11.

Initiate BUY on new growth driver emerged
Win 8 Tablet demand not yet priced in.
We believe that Ultrabook will not be able to gain PC market share from Tablet,
however it will fuel a stable notebook PC shipment growth from 2013 onwards,
when Ultrabooks have better price-performance ratio.
The real (and new) growth driver for Ju Teng will be the new Wintel platform and
the ambition of Microsoft and Intel in the mobile device market. With this new
camp of players, we believe the robust 104% shipments CAGR in 2012-2017 for
Tablets will lift JuTeng to a new level.
We estimate Win 8 OS Tablet shipments to be 3.33mn/16.7mn units in 2012/2013
and we assume Ju Teng to account for 30% market share in Tablet casing. Hence,
we estimate HK$29mn/HK$181mn earnings enhancement in FY12/13E driving
by Win Tablet casing.
Our FY12/13E earnings estimates are 11%/22% higher than consensus. We
believe market consensus has not yet priced in the growth driver from Tablet.

Undemanding valuation even not yet priced in the new Tablet casing
earnings growth driver. Ju Teng current trades at 6.7x/4.8x FY12/13E PE based
on Bloomberg consensus as compare to its peer Catcher’s 11.4x/10.0x FY12/13E
PE, representing 41%/52% discount to Catcher. Despite Apple is a key customer
of Catcher, which should deserve a premium valuation, we believe Ju Teng’s
strong alliance with Top 5 Taiwanese NB ODMs (accounted for 90% of worldwide
PC shipments) suggests just a small discount of 20% to Catcher is reasonable.
Based on our earnings estimate, Ju Teng trades at 6.0x/3.9x FY12/13E PE or
45%/56% discount to peers which we see the valuation of Ju Teng either based
on consensus or ours estimate are undemanding.
Market re-rating will be triggered by stronger than expected ramp up in Win
8 Tablets in 4Q12. If Win 8 Tablets successfully venture into the Tablet market in
4Q12, we believe Ju Teng will be re-rated given its dominant market position in
NB casing and strong alliance with the Taiwanese NB ODMs. Also, we are
confident that the Tablet market will eventually be a three-camp market (iOS,
Android and Win 8) instead of being dominated by a single player and this trend
has already revealed by the ramp up of Amazon Kindle Fire and Samsung Galaxy,
which are running on Android. Given Wintel platform and its strong software and
application support for PC brands, we are confident that Win 8 will take at least
8% market share or 15mn units in 2013 and increase further to 12% or 44mn
units in 2016.
Improving cashflow and ROE. After another tough year in 2011, when Ju Teng
cut prices in 1H11 to boost sales in reaction to the challenging market condition,
which depressed its profitability, the company has readjusted its pricing strategy
in 2H11 with price hike and hence achieving a recovery in margins in 2H11. In
light of the booming Ultrabook and PC brand Tablet demand from 4Q12 onwards,
we believe JuTeng is able to improve its ROE from 5.6% in FY11 back to 6.3% in
FY12 and further increase to 9.1%. Free cash flow will turn back to positive in
FY13 after major capex on metal casing JV as well as relocation of production
plants is completed in 2012.
Initiate BUY with TP of HK$2.50. We initiate BUY on JuTeng with TP of HK$2.50
based on 9.0x FY12 PE, 20% discount to its peer given (1) 38% earnings CAGR

representing 52% upside potential, and (3) the re-rating opportunity on Ju Teng
driving by the success launch of Win 8 OS Tablet and Ultrabook and its dominant
market position in PC casing and strong alliance with TW NB ODMs.

Investment Risk
Slowdown in the global notebook demand. Slowdown in global notebook
demand due to weakening in demand for consumer electronic products and / or
substitution effect from Tablet will have direct negative impact on Ju Teng given
its 30% dominant market position in the global notebook market with nearly 100%
of sales are generated from the notebook casing.
Failure to venturing into the Tablet market by Win 8. We estimate 10%/62%
earnings enhancement from Tablet casing given Ju Teng strong alliance with
Taiwanese NB ODMs and the strong desire of “Wintel” and the PC Brands to
venture into the Tablet market to reap the robust 39.4% shipments CAGR in
2011-2017. Any failure in software, such as the acceptance of Win 8 OS, or
hardware, like inappropriate pricing strategy and low acceptance of Tablet
devices from the PC Brands, will have a negative impact on the Win 8 Tablet
penetration and hence the casing demand as well as the sale contribution to Ju
Teng. A 10% decline in our current global Win 8 Tablet shipment in FY12/13 will
lower Ju Teng’s net profit by 1%/4%.
Intensifying competition in the casing market. Although the notebook casing
market is highly concentrated and some of the key players are the top 6
Taiwanese NB ODMs’ (accounted for over 90% of global notebook shipments)
subsidiaries or JV, any intensifying of competition is likely to have a negative
impact on pricing as well as margins of Tablet casing. However, we believe the
Tablet casing market has relatively high entry barrier, which requires heavy
investments in CNC, and Ju Teng’s one-stop solution on casing, especially its
expertise in applying different materials, should also enable it to defend its market
position.
Exchange Risk. Given Ju Teng’s sales are mostly denominated in USD and
costs are partly in RMB, it will be subject to the risk in the change of the
RMB/USD exchange rate.

Competitive Analysis Growth path
Past
Sales by product (FY11)
JuTeng Intl (JT) is one of leading notebook plastic casing maker with 30%
global market share in notebook casing with headquarter in Suzhou, the
PRC. JT was founded by three individuals with abundant industyr
experiences: Mr. Cheng Li-Yu, Cheng Li-Yen and Mr. Horng Tsai-Chin in
2000 and listed in HKEx in 2005 with IPO price HK$1.40 and raised
HK$364mn. In 2009, JT issued 100mn share as TDR with NT$17.4 per
share (HK$4.07).
Present
Sales by market (FY11)
After two consecutive years of decline in profit due to failure in netbook
ramp up, sluggish notebook demand, and debut of Tablet device in
2010 – Apple iPad which rapidly gained market share from notebook,
JuTeng aims to turnaround in 2012 by leveraging its metal casing
business under a 60/40 JV with Compal and a 71/29 JV with Wistron to
reap the Uni-body metal casing for Ultrabook that with higher ASP (i.e.
US$20+) and higher margin (20%+).
Future
Sensitivity analysis (%)
Despite the further delay in Ultrabook ramp up due to delay release of
Intel Ivy Bridge CPU and uncompetitive pricing of Ultrabook (US$1,000
versus Tablet US$300/Notebook US$700), the inflection point of
Ultrabook shipment is expected to be triggered in 4Q12 with the help
from Microsoft’s new generation OS – Win 8 and the efforts of Wintel to
lower Ultrabook pricing from 4Q12 onwards. The new Win 8 OS is not
only able to help boosting Ultrabook shipments due to replacement
demand but also helping PC Brands to break into the Tablet market by its
touch-screen focus and mobile applications. Metal and plastic casing
from Tablet device will be a new growth driver for JT that the market has
not priced in currently.

Competitive analysis
Substitutes
Competitive threats
The casing market is highly concentrated with top 3 players accounted
for 60% global market share.
By levering a dominant market position in the global notebook casing
market, JT is ready to turnaround with new OS from Microsoft – Win 8
and the new CPU chip – Ivy Bridge to drive up Ultrabook shipments and
hence the global notebook demand as well as the replacement demand
from WinXP.
We see JT’s lack of Tablet casing market exposure will likely to be
changed with Wintel aiming to fight back a 20% market share in the
Tablet market by mid-2013. More importantly, the PC brands were
lagging behind Apple in terms of annual shipments if taking into account
Tablets. Hence, given the robust growth outlook on Tablet in the coming 5
years, PC brands are likely to venture into the market again with Wintel’s
support which we see the Win 8 platform is more competitive against
Google Android in terms of scale and appstore which is crucial in
consumer electronic device market.
Thanks to extending JT’s business arm to metal casing from purely
plastic in 2009 as well as the 2 new growth drivers – Ultrabook and Win 8
Tablet casing, we believe JT will benefit from a robust shipments growth
as well as an improvement in margin and ASP by ramping up metal
casing contribution from low teen to 40% by 2016.
We expect JT to turnaround in 2012 and we see JT to regain its sales
growth momentum from 4Q12 onwards, thanks to the debut of Microsoft
Win 8 debut in Oct 2012.
New entrants
The entry barrier is high due to (1) capital investment in CNC, (2) strong
alliance with Taiwanese NB ODMs as the top 5 accounted over 90% of
global NB shipments and, (3) tight delivery cycle (i.e. 1 week) and
know-how in surface treatment.
Customers
JT essentially covers the top tier PC Brands given its well-established
relationship with the top 5 Taiwanese NB ODMs. JT has certain level of
bargaining power to customers as the casing for different customers are
highly specific and vary between different models.
Suppliers
JT does not have any bargaining power on the raw material which
accounted for 55%/65% of COGS for metal and plastic. Usually, JT is
able to pass-through the customer raw material cost to the customers.

Management
Vision: JT targets to maintain its no. 1 position in the notebook casing
globally.
Growth strategy: By keeping the close business relationship with
Taiwanese ODMs, JT is likely to benefit from the ramp up in Ultrabook as
well as the success venturing into Tablet market by all top tier PC Brands.
Financial prudence: Reasonable gearing at 40% level and stable net
cashflow from operating with ~30% payout ratio.
Transparency: No monthly or quarterly reporting but cross-checking via
listed Taiwanese customers is possible.
Minority interest: Stable dividend payout since listing.
Risk
Industry: Highly concentrated market and competitive industry. New
materials such as liquidmetal for casing are a potential threat while the
risk is low in near term, i.e. 2-3 years.
Business: The business growth prospect rely on the global economic
condition as well as consumer preference in electronic device. JT has
limited bargaining power on the customer/supplier side.
Management: Over 20 years experience and stable management team.
Execution: Clear plan on metal casing production capacity expansion
while the execution progress depends on the JV partner, the Taiwanese
ODMs.
Regulation: Limited regulatory risk on casing business.
