Passive components maker Giant Revenues in December reached as high as 3,349,000,000 yuan NT, revenue in the off-season rewrite record highs, an increase of 2.53%, an increase of 47.1%.
At the same time, January 10, the state giant announced the placement of national resistance chip resistors price adjustment announcement, officially raised the price of chip resistors 15 to 20%.
Announcement letter said: In response to the continued appreciation of the exchange rate, raw materials and labor costs continued to rise and other factors, with various considerations, our company decided from January 10, 2018, the following new product orders for the implementation of unit price adjustment , And start accepting new orders.
1, the general thick film resistor products (RC series), size from 0402,0603,0805 to 1206; 2, large size thick film resistor products (RC series), size from 1210, 1218, 2010, to 2512. above items The price increases +15% - +20%, accounting for about 45% of the overall resistance.
In addition, the solid state capacitor manufacturer Yu state revenue in December 2017 reached 216 million NT, rewriting the record high, surging 10.18%, annual growth rate reached 27.42%, the main revenue due to the AI artificial intelligence speed Computing needs, driving the use of solid capacitors on electronic products increased significantly.
In the first half of 2017, transshipment orders from NB customers were stable. In response to the increasing market demand, YuBo decided to expand V Chip products and tap into the highly-skilled AP-CAP to boost its revenue. Reaching 1.942 billion yuan, an increase of 17.46%. With the addition of new production capacity and new products this year, the annual revenue will maintain its momentum.
Insiders said that at present, the price of SMD resistors has begun to rise toward the MLCC, the market driven mainly by the automotive and industrial markets caused by the same time, some of the resistance manufacturers can not afford the raw materials and labor costs rise, have been raised Ex-factory price, which also caused the prices of all kinds of agents / traders on the market to rise. Factories are full but the market is in short supply. However, this does not mean that the growth of the demand of end customers is still not possible at this moment.
