Brief review report of the electronics industry: Li Jidian returned to the market and built another 12 inch factory, with strong demand for vehicle gauge chips

Core view

Li Jidian returned to the Taiwan stock exchange for listing. Li Jidian was formerly known as DRAM large factory Li Jing technology. In 2012, Lijing technology was delisted due to the financial crisis. In 2014, Lijing technology was transformed from DRAM factory to professional wafer foundry. In May 2019, Lijing group completed the enterprise restructuring, and Lijing technology transferred three 12 inch wafer factories and related assets to Lijing Integrated Electronic Systems Lab Co.Ltd(002339) Manufacturing Co., Ltd. In December 2021, the company was re listed on the Taiwan stock exchange of China.

There is a strong demand for car gauge chips, and Liji Electric has built another 12 inch wafer factory. As the sixth largest wafer foundry in the world, Li Jidian had a revenue of US $1.553 billion in 2020, accounting for 2% of the market. The company plans to invest NT $278 billion in Zhuke Causeway Park in the next 10 years to establish a production base with a monthly production capacity of 100000 12 inch wafers. Due to the strong demand for automotive electronics, the company’s current production capacity of about 30000-50000 pieces of Causeway factory has been fully contracted by customers.

Li Jidian mainly manufactures storage, logic and discrete devices. The company currently has two 8-inch and three 12 inch wafer factories. The 8-inch production line mainly focuses on power devices to meet the demand for semiconductor components of electric vehicle power system in the future. The 12 inch logic production line mainly focuses on the system peripheral IC, and does not compete with the main OEM in the field of nano processor IC production. Storage OEM mainly focuses on low and medium capacity niche and IOT application storage chips, avoiding competition with the three major manufacturers in the field of computer, server and mobile phone storage.
