[KIS] 모닝브리프: 칩스앤미디어 Spot Call Takeaway

★★KR Tech: Chips&Media(094360) : Spot Call Takeaway – Cheap&Mighty (Sales note)

Chips&Media (094360, Mkt Cap W287bn, ADV W22.5bn) is a semiconductor IP company with specialty in video/image processing technology and one of the key beneficiaries of GPU shortages upon AI acceleration and wider adoption of cameras in EV/autonomous driving. As an IP solution provider, Co; 1) licenses out IPs to customers(IDM/fabless/design houses), which develop the chips and then mass-produce at foundries; and 2) earns royalties once the chips are sold. Despite the downturn in the semiconductor market, Co posted 20~30% YoY growth in sales over past 2 years with OPM rising to 30.3% in FY22. Co's 1Q23 Sales/OP rose 28.3%/45.7% YoY driven by strong data center GPU and AI SoC bound license sales.

Company Overview
Thanks to AI acceleration, the demand for semiconductor IP is growing rapidly. The Nvidia GPU shortage and the US-China geopolitical tension are driving Big Techs and Chinese fabless players to design their own chips, which will result in demand expansion for Co's IPs in both the US and China. In fact, until a few years ago the US accounted for the largest License sales weight, but since FY22, China has outweighed the US backed by demand from Chinese data centres (FY22 sales weight: China 38%, US 33%). Having said that, Co should continue to enjoy strong demand from the US as well as clients start to rely less on Co's main Chinese competitor Verisilicon (688521 CH).

Plus, with autonomous driving and ADAS advancement, the video codec IP will become even more important as the need for visual contents processing become prolific (eg. 8 camera modules per Tesla vehicle), thus, Co's Royalty sales is poised for a structural growth as 1 chip with video codec IP is needed for each camera module. Furthermore, Co's next growth driver is the video NPU IP, capable of super resolution, noise reduction and object detection, needed for data centers, IP cameras, consumer electronics and ADAS.

Earnings & Valuations
Although the stock has rallied +33% in the past month, we think Co is still too cheap given Co's solid earnings growth and likely re-rating in the near future. Peers such as Verisilicon (688521 CH, Mkt cap $6.2bn), main video IP competitor from China, and Openedges Technology (394280 KS, Mkt cap W405bn), a domestic peer for general use IP, are yet to post a meaningful profit, but Chips & Media's FY23 sales are projected to grow 20% YoY with >30% OPM, yet the valuation still sits at just 24x P/E (based on the latest FY23 OPe/NPe of W9.3bn/W12.0bn, +27%/+20% YoY) vs Verisilicon at 266x P/E. Recommend to keep accumulating Chips&Media, despite its current small mkt cap, as we can see mkt cap upside to W735bn (+155% upside) if we target conservative 50x (Openedges' FY24 P/E) on FY24 NP of W14.7bn. Summary of our spot call (Jun 9) in Korean/English and IR material attached.

메디톡스는 동남아시아 최대 규모 온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼 '쇼피'에 더마코스메틱 브랜드 '뉴라덤'이 입점했다고 13일 밝혔다.

신제품인 병·의원 전용 '뉴라덤 크림MD'와 기초화장품 '베이직더마' 라인을 쇼피에서 판매한다. 뉴라덤은 지난 달 세계 최대 온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼 '아마존'에도 입점했다.

쇼피는 동남아시아, 아마존은 북미 지역에서 높은 점유율을 기록하는 대표 온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼이다. 글로벌 시장 진입을 위한 필수 유통 채널로 꼽힌다.

메디톡스는 이번 글로벌 온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼 입점으로 미국을 비롯해 싱가포르, 말레이시아, 필리핀 등 북미·동남아시아 더마코스메틱 시장에 발을 들이게 됐다. 지난 3월 뉴라덤의 대대적 리뉴얼과 신제품 출시 이후 소비자 접점을 넓히기 위해 글로벌 유통 채널 확보에 주력한 성과다.
