After doing research on industrial automation for a long time, you will find a very interesting phenomenon.
Those leaders that are talked about by everyone have often “graduated”, have high positions and full expectations, and chasing them is like catching a flying knife; and those lying on the ground are mostly “zombie stocks” with no performance and cannot be touched.
So, the truly comfortable opportunities are often hidden in the middle – performance has begun to quietly pick up, and the orders in hand are even scheduled for the second half of the year, but because there are no “sexy stories” to tell, it has not been crowded by various funds.
Let’s pick out these “fish that slipped through the net” today.
These 10 companies have all reviewed their first quarter reports and eliminated those “market-dream stocks” and “zombie stocks”, leaving behind pragmatists with large enough trading volume, the ability to enter and exit, and relatively moderate growth during the year.
Even though they usually don’t make any sound, this is the material used for research.
Eston (002747): Even though it has fallen much before, it is actually among the top three in domestic robot shipments.
The quarter-on-quarter improvement in the first quarter report is obvious, especially for photovoltaic and welding robots, where orders cannot be filled at all.
The key is that self-produced reducers have begun to be installed, which is a real cost reduction.
This kind of ticket has the lowest performance and cannot fall far.
Xinjie Electric (603416): The “sweeping monk” in the industrial control industry.
There are few small PLCs in the market that can outperform Siemens, and Xinjie is one of them.
Orders for textile and packaging machinery recovered quickly in the first quarter, which is a typical “hidden champion”.
The market capitalization is neither big nor small, and it hasn’t increased wildly during the year. It is the kind of ticket that can be obtained.
Opt (688686): The “water seller” of machine vision.
Regardless of whether you make lithium batteries or 3C, as long as you do automated testing, you have to buy its light source and lens.
The performance in the first quarter was very stable, and the current position is significantly discounted from the high point. The liquidity of the Science and Technology Innovation Board is also sufficient, and it is easy to enter and exit.
Hongxun Technology (603015): This vote is definitely delayed by the name.
The main business is plastic machinery control, and now it is also involved in photovoltaic and energy storage equipment control.
The first quarter report turned around losses, and the proportion of overseas orders is still increasing.
The most important thing is that the absolute stock price is low and has not been speculated. This kind of stock has a high safety margin.
Han’s Laser (002008): Don’t dislike him for being an old face.
As for laser equipment, as long as the manufacturing industry moves a little bit, he will have to work.
Order confirmations accelerated in the first quarter, and both lithium batteries and PCB equipment are increasing in volume.
There are tens of billions of dollars in business, and more than one billion dollars are traded every day. Big funds can come in and out at will, and there is no liquidity crisis at all.
Lesai Intelligence (002979): Those who make motion control cards have high technical barriers.
Now logistics AGV and 3C equipment all use his stuff.
The performance has been very stable, and the trend is not crazy. It belongs to the type of “making a small fortune silently”, which is especially suitable for players who don’t like excitement.
Victronic Electric (688698): A ruthless player in the inverter field, especially in harsh environments such as lifting and mining, its products are built to withstand.
Overseas revenue increased significantly in the first quarter, which shows that the logic of domestic industrial control going overseas is reasonable.
The valuation is lower than similar companies, which is the expected difference.
Hechuan Technology (688320): An “all-round player” in the industrial control industry, it can develop PLC and servo by itself.
Although it was severely hammered last year, its revenue in the first quarter is still growing at a high rate.
Now that the price has returned to a relatively rational range, as long as the downstream new energy equipment does not stop working, he will not be hungry.
Bozhong Seiko (688097): An automation equipment manufacturer from the Apple industry chain is now developing new energy battery swap stations.
There were a lot of new orders received in the first quarter, and the recovery of consumer electronics coupled with the new energy business is a double-click logic.
On the Science and Technology Innovation Board, there are not many votes with such low positions.
Keige Seiko (301338): It makes a solder paste printing machine. It looks inconspicuous, but it is used for both Mini LED and semiconductor packaging.
Net profit picked up in the first quarter and has not been much hyped.
The hidden champion of this kind of subdivided track is the most likely to surprise.
Interactive topic: Among these 10, do you prefer the “big and stable” equipment giant (Hanzu) or the “small and beautiful” control system (Xinjie, Leisai)?
