Vishay (VSH) to Boost Inductors Production With New Facility
Read MoreHide Full Article
Vishay Intertechnology (VSH - Free Report) recently announced the inauguration of a new manufacturing facility in Gomez Palacio, Durango, Mexico.
The La Laguna S. de R.L. de C.V., an 18,000-square-meter and LEED v4-certified manufacturing facility, will initially focus on the mass production of power inductors.
Notably, the new facility is an addition to its existing production facilities in the United States, Israel and China.
We believe Vishay is likely to gain strong traction across handheld devices, computers and automotive electronics, among other applications, on the back of strengthening power inductor offerings.
Moreover, the underlined facility is expected to aid Vishay in catering to the growing demand for power inductors across the United States and Europe by taking care of the logistical challenges.
This apart, the company recently collaborated with Immersion Corporation to unveil a new series of IHPT solenoid-based haptic actuators using the latter’s haptic technology, simplifying the design-in process and eliminating the need for separate licenses for haptic effects implementation.
This partnership will likely help Vishay to gain significant traction in automotive and commercial applications, particularly in human-machine interfaces like LCD touchscreens, touch panels, buttons and joysticks.
All these efforts will bolster Vishay’s footprint in the global inductor market with enhanced production.
Per a Future Market Insights report, the global inductor market is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.1% between 2022 and 2032, reaching a market valuation of $21.42 billion by 2032.
We believe that a strengthening footprint in the promising inductor market is likely to instill investor optimism in the stock in the days ahead.
Notably, Vishay has gained 13.9% on a year-to-date basis, outperforming the industry’s decline of 24.9%.
We note that the new facility, along with this partnership, is likely to counter the softness in the Inductors segment.
In second-quarter 2023, the Inductors segment generated revenues of $89.2 million, which decreased 0.4% on a year-over-year basis. This was due to decreased sales to distribution customers and customers in the Asia and Europe regions.
Our model estimate for third-quarter 2023 Inductors revenues is projected at $75.8 million, indicating a year-over-year decline of 9.3%.
Rising inflationary pressure and economic uncertainties remain major concerns for the company in the near term.
