Technology 6 November 2017 INDUSTRY NOTE China | Technology 6 November 2017 Technology EQUITY RESEARCH China Summit Takeaway: AI, Semi, Smartphone Value Chain Key Takeaway We hosted several experts and 24 A/H corporates at our China Summit and Digital Disruption tour last week. Key takeaways: 1) AI shifting from central cloud to the edge (end devices), driving GPU/FPGA demand in near term, 2) AI leaders in China rolling out own ASICs in the next 2~3 years, 3) China's new role in semi, forging ahead in design and catching up in foundry. In smartphone value chain, maintain AAC as top pick for lens opportunity and Xiaomi strength. CHINA Artificial Intelligence - From cloud to edge computing: The rise of AI on the edge (terminal devices, like surveillance cameras, smartphones) from central cloud, can solve one key weakness of AI: the brains are located thousands of miles away from the applications. The benefits of AI on the edge include: 1) better analysis based on non-compressed raw data, which contains more information, 2) lower requirement on bandwidth, as transmitted data has been pre-processed, 3) faster response. This will keep driving the demands for GPUs and FPGAs in near term. Meanwhile, China's leading AI companies including Hikvision (002415 CH) and Unisound (private, leader in voice recognition) also noted they may develop own ASICs in the next 2~3 years, for better efficiency and low power. While machines getting smarter, we notice increasing concerns on data privacy. Governments are not only implementing Big Data laws and policies, also starts investing AI leaders, like Face ++ (computer vision) in China. Semiconductor - From catching up to forging ahead: Government investments and strategic M&A are pushing the development of local IC industry. In high-end chips including microprocessors, memory, DSP and FPGA, China remains heavily dependent on imports of semiconductor and technology. In 2016, China's IC self-sufficiency rate reached 21.6%, vs. national goal of 40% by 2020 and 70% by 2025. The slowing of Moore's Law may give China a chance to catch up over time. China's advantage is it has a large domestic market, for example, ~30% of memory consumption is already coming from China, mainly for smartphones, PCs and servers. On design side, local industry revenue rose 24% y- y to USD24.7bn in 2016, weighted 28% of global market. Huawei's Hisilicon is near the leading edge. Chinese design houses also have great opportunities in Bluetooth and WiFi. On foundry side, SMIC (981 HK) has improved yield rate on 28nm, and is focusing on 14nm R&D, in order to begin ramping in 2019. This will continue putting pressure on earnings, but we remain confident in 2018~20 revenue CAGR of 17% thanks to diverse technology portfolio and customer mix. According to National IC Investment Fund, local foundry supply is ~50% of demand from local design houses. China is building 26 new 12- inch fabs, accounting for 42% of worldwide new fabs. This will add 1.1mn wafer/month capacity in total, including 400k for foundry and 650k for memory. Smartphone Value Chain: Key takeaways from our recent channel checks and corporate meetings are: 1) Xiaomi's 2017 smartphone shipment will reach ~90mn units in 2017, beat consensus estimate of 70~75mn units. This will benefit AAC (2018 HK) as a major RF mechanics and optical lens vendor to Xiaomi; 2) Memory and OLED are still the most difficult to get components for Android brands; 3) 3D sensing adoption in Android should start from early-2018, led by Oppo, Xiaomi, Huawei and Moto; 4) Dual camera penetration will reach 15-20% by 2017 and likely 40-50%+ by 2018; 5) Camera pixel migration will Rex Wu * Equity Analyst continue, mainly in mid- and low-end smartphones (from 8MP to 12MP/16MP); 6) Huawei +852 3743 8074 [email protected] and Oppo/Vivo are unlikely to use foreign camera module makers as primary supplier, due * Jefferies Hong Kong Limited to mature technology and customer priority. Local leaders like Sunny Optical (2382 HK) are ^Prior trading day's closing price unless still preferred; 7) Hybrid lens adoption should remain conservative due to low yield and otherwise noted. expensive to plastic lens; 8) Handset lens market sees regular price decline. Largan pays more attention to China Top-10 brands now, even Meizu (~20mn units per year) and Meitu.

Sunny should see better product mix of 13MP and 16MP in 10MP+, for both Samsung and Chinese customers. 16MP price is 50~60% higher than 13MP. Camera module: Major drivers for MOB/MOC are rising adoption of 16MP and 20MP front cameras, as well as bezel-less design. Sunny expects double digit growth in high-end camera modules.

After the market close in the US yesterday 4th June the Wall Street Journal published an Op-Ed by US Senator Marco Rubio in which he announced that he intends to sponsor the “Equitable Act” – an acronym for Ensuring Quality Information and Transparency for Abroad-Based Listings on our Exchanges. At this time the text of the bill has not been published and we are seeking additional information about its contents and likelihood of passing. However, our early reaction is that this has the potential to cause significant changes in the domain for listings of Chinese firms going forward with the potential for de- listing of Chinese firms on US exchanges and re-listing elsewhere (most likely Hong Kong). More generally we see this development as part of an increased escalation of tensions between China and the US on multiple fronts which should cap the valuation multiple for China equities, in particular in the offshore index constituents and US-listed parts of the universe. We provide a list of the potentially impacted China / HK names with either primary or secondary listings on Amex, NYSE or Nasdaq.

  • Statistics of Chinese SEP Cases in 2011-2019
    Statistics of Chinese SEP Cases in 2011-2019 ZHAO Qishan, LU Zhe LexField Law Offices From 2011 to December 2019, Chinese courts accepted 160 cases related to SEPs. Most of the cases involve foreign entities and relate to the telecommunication industry. Most of the cases were filed with the courts in Beijing, Guangdong, Shanghai and Jiangsu. Most of the cases are patent infringement disputes, while cases asking the court to determine FRAND terms during license negotiations are also on the rise. This report includes a quantitative analysis from annual distribution, parties involved, geographic distribution of the courts, causes of action, adjudication progress and final outcomes, and also provides a particular summary of the SEP cases accepted in 2018 and 2019.1 From 2011 to 2019, Chinese courts have accepted over one hundred cases involving standard essential patents (“SEPs”) and Chinese judges have accumulated considerable judicial experience in hearing the cases. Aiming to provide a complete overview, this report analyzes information related to these SEP cases from various aspects based on the following methodology: (1) Scope of cases reviewed: The cases covered in the report are those accepted by civil courts in mainland China where the plaintiffs claimed or the defendants argued that the asserted patents were SEPs. Such cases are collectively referred to as "SEP cases" in this report. Cases that were withdrawn or dismissed due to the invalidation of asserted patents are also covered. (2) Time span: The cases included in the report are accepted by Chinese court from 2011 to December 2019. Since 2011, the number of Chinses SEP cases has gradually increased, and types of the cases have also become diversified.
