PSA Auto Parts: Denso (6902 JT): Turning the Corner

The Denso story is exciting. OPM is set to rise as Denso’s high-margin electronics are about to receive a volume boost. Comments on the Q1 call on the profitability of electrification and the ability of electronics component lines to produce either EV or hybrid units as needed, were encouraging. While FY19 itself will likely not end up impressive in terms of OPM or sales growth, it could represent a significant turning point in margin improvement, explains William Nestuk.
