Meig Smart Technology Co.Ltd(002881) ranked fifth with a share of 5.4%.
The shipment of Internet of vehicles modules has increased rapidly, benefiting from the intelligence of vehicles. The company’s standard data transmission module has been widely used in traditional vehicle product fields such as Tbox, and the company’s intelligent module products are widely used in auxiliary driving fields such as intelligent cockpit, ADAS \ DMS, etc. The company’s 5g intelligent module products have been mass produced and shipped to China’s leading new energy vehicle enterprises and applied to the intelligent cockpit system. With the continuous penetration of Android operating system into the vehicle field and the continuous development of the trend of one core multi screen and multi-channel camera access in the intelligent cabin, it is expected that the company’s intelligent module products will usher in a broad market space. The company’s intelligent module has many advantages, such as pluggable and fast matching, fast product iteration speed, stronger adaptability of Android system software, cost and so on.
Investment suggestion: the company focuses on wireless communication modules and solutions, and is committed to various types of wireless communication modules, Internet of things solutions, 4G \ 5gfwa fixed wireless access equipment and related technology development services. We are optimistic about the sustained high prosperity of the Internet of things industry, the obvious competitive advantage of the company, and the module shipment is expected to grow rapidly. At the same time, the company is optimistic about the rapid growth of the company’s Internet of vehicles module business. It is predicted that the company’s revenue from 2021 to 2023 will be 1.9 billion, 2.83 billion and 3.95 billion respectively, and the net profit attributable to the parent company will be 119 million, 198 million and 289 million respectively, corresponding to PE 67 / 40 / 28 / respectively. It will be covered for the first time and given a “buy” rating.
Risk tip: the development of Internet of things industry is not as expected; The continuous price rise of raw materials leads to the gross profit margin lower than expected; The customer development progress of the Internet of vehicles module is less than expected.
