Wide-moat Fanuc posted weaker third-quarter fiscal 2018 (quarter-ending December 2018) results featuring a 20% year-over-year decrease in revenue and a 42% decrease in operating income. Management made mild reductions to its full-year guidance with operating profit guidance reduced by 2% to JPY 147.9 billion. Highlighting the potential impact of the trade war, Fanuc’s sales in China were down 56%, and the Americas were down 19%. We downgrade our earnings forecast by midteens levels and increas...
As the world’s largest manufacturer of computer numerical control, or CNC, systems and industrial robots, with around 50% and 20% market share, respectively, Fanuc plays a critical role in factory automation for downstream manufacturers, including Tier 1 auto firms such as General Motors and smartphone-makers such as Hon Hai. The company has been focusing on key motion-control technologies and produces most of the core components in the automation space in-house. Over the past 10 years, resear...

Wide-moat Fanuc posted weaker fiscal 2018 second-quarter (ended September) results featuring a 9.5% year-over-year decrease in revenue and 22.8% decrease in operating income. Management made mild reductions in its full-year guidance, with revenue guidance reduced by 2% to JPY 626 billion and operating profit guidance reduced by 5% to JPY 150.9 billion. The new guidance implies 19% and 51% reductions in second-half revenue and operating profit, respectively. Highlighting the potential impact of t...

Wide-moat Fanuc posted strong first-quarter fiscal 2018 (quarter-ending June 2018) results featuring a 7.9% year-over-year increase in operating income. However, while management marginally upgraded its full-year guidance, the new guidance continues to look very conservative to us. The new guidance implies a 12% reduction in sales for the full year and a 31% reduction in operating profit, which would imply an 18.6% reduction in revenue and a 41.4% reduction in operating profit for the remaining ...

Wide-moat Fanuc finally delivered strong numbers in the second quarter with its new capacity ramping up. Revenue and operating income beat our forecast and consensus by 9% and 4% year over year, respectively, driven by a jump in Robomachine sales. The strong capital expenditure demand for major model upgrades from September including iPhone and local brands has boosted the segmental sales in the first two quarters, though we still believe the growth rate will slowdown in the second half as evide...
Wide-moat Fanuc’s first-quarter operating income grew 21% year over year, which was largely in line with our forecast. However, judging from the highest book/bill ratio (1.18 times) over the past five years and from cross-checking with its peers, the capacity constraints seem to have limited sales growth, and actual demand, particularly in China, has been stronger than we expected. Fanuc’s FA segment, which sells computer numerical control, or CNC, systems, saw 16% quarterly order growth, bu...
Wide-moat Fanuc’s full-year earnings beat our estimate as fourth-quarter FA and robot segment sales gained 30% and 19%, respectively. This more than offset a 27% drop in Robomachine segment sales from the high base last year as smartphone-related demand flattened. While we are encouraged by the 22% year-over-year growth in fourth-quarter orders and also by the company’s expectation that the recent strong growth will carry over to first-half fiscal 2017 (financial year ending March 2018), Fan...
Wide moat Fanuc reported mixed third-quarter results. While the top line grew 2.9% sequentially (down 3.2% year over year), which was largely in line with our expectation, higher fixed costs due to new investments on capacity expansion (Mibu factory) and R&D have dragged on the company’s profitability. Operating margin fell to 25% from 28.2% in the second quarter. The company revised up its full-year revenue and operating income guidance by around 4%, mainly reflecting a lower Japanese yen a.....
