Stockchase Opinions

Mark GrammerFanuc Corp6954.TCOMMENTDec 16, 2015

One of the predominant robot manufacturers globally. An exceptionally well-run company. Historically, they have not had the best corporate governance, in that they just haven’t cared about the shareholders. Communication is getting much better. There are many that think this is an opportune time to invest in a company like this. His valuation still found this to be a little bit too expensive for his liking.

DON'T BUY
Somewhat cyclical. Growth has been lagging, and doesn't see it accelerating soon. In a competitive space. Solid business, not cheap. High quality. Slowly getting more shareholder friendly. Better places to look.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 29/18, Down 4%) Smaller position for him. Leader in machine automation and robotics. Has some cyclicality. Brought down full year profits guidance, just by a bit. Price target of $24. Stick with it and he'd recommend it as a buy.
PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Aug 29/18, Down 9%) This robot manufacturer is a leader in the field in Japan. The business is cyclical and he feels the rally is yet to come and sees this as a good time to buy in – especially as the automotive cycle improves.

COMMENT

Factory automation equipment. Probably #1 or #2 in robots globally. The issue is their auto exposure. People are concerned about auto exposure. The other issue would be Apple (AAPL-Q). They have significant exposure to the iPhone, because they make the robots that manufacture the metal backing for iPhones. We are now seeing less capital expenditure going on for some of the suppliers to Apple, which has hurt them a little.
