Daikin’s Strong 1Q Fiscal 2017 Results Within Expectations; Shares Overvalued
No-moat Daikin’s record high net profit of JPY 51 billion for first-quarter fiscal 2018 (year ending March 2018) was up 4% year over year and accounted for 32% of our full-year forecast. The strong results were mainly attributed to the launch of high-value-added products and the firm’s cost-cutting efforts. We deem the results as within expectations, given that first-half results are seasonally stronger for Daikin, and we largely retain our earnings estimates. We increase our fair value estimate...Daikin Industries is engaged in the manufacture and sale of air conditioning and refrigerating equipment.
