Investment logic

The company has a leading position in the industry and has advantages in algorithm technology, customer resources, and sales service.

The display control industry has high barriers, and the company is in a leading position in the control system segment to further deploy video processing equipment. With software algorithm technology as its core competitiveness, the company actively promotes technological product upgrades and iterations, in line with MLED and 4K/8K industry trends. With this, the company has a leading share among many downstream customers, and has established deep cooperative relationships with Riyadh, Zhou Ming, Abison, Haikang, Dahua, etc., and the customer resources are stable and high-quality.

Display control system: small-pitch penetration & high-definition upgrade & application scenario expansion drive growth. 1) MINI/MICRO display technology has been upgraded, COB/MIP and other technologies have increased yield and cost, accelerated penetration in scale, and smaller chips and smaller spacing drive an increase in the number of pixels, and sales demand for display control products is expected to increase. 2) High-definition 4K/8K video drives an increase in pixel density. On the one hand, it promotes the upgrading of display control products to improve ASP, and on the other hand, it increases the demand for product quantity under limited load capacity. 3) Expansion of application scenarios such as XR/virtual shooting/naked eye 3D to cover a wider range of scenarios and accelerate penetration into emerging markets such as commercial and civilian use.

Video processing equipment: collaborative display control system, MLED, high-definition and other upgraded drivers.

The development of the ultra-high-definition information industry accelerates the upgrading of video processing equipment; the company's video processing system business volume is increasing year by year, and the video processing equipment+transmission card 2-in-1 product is expanding smoothly, driving the volume and price of products to rise sharply. In the future, it will accelerate its penetration into the video equipment market. It is estimated that the revenue scale of this business will reach 1.9, 2.8, and 4 billion yuan in 24-26, increasing 52%, 48%, and 43% over the same period.
