Company Report

Kyocera: Capacity Utilization Recovery Expected to Lag Peers

Kyocera is a Japanese conglomerate that manufactures an array of ceramic components and electronic devices. The company has repeatedly made bolt-on acquisitions to prop up tepid organic growth, but with approximately 300 subsidiaries and three major reporting segments, we think Kyocera has been unable to realize meaningful synergies from them. With its hand in so many different businesses, many of which are unrelated to its core business, the firm has been unable to focus its resources on its most profitable segments.

Price vs Fair Value

6971 is trading at a 385% premium.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Manufacturers of automotive components, such as Kyocera, should benefit from the secular trend toward increased semiconductor content in vehicles.

Bears

Kyocera sells a disparate array of products, in our view, with little to show in the way of market leadership.
