Semiconductor Winners, Losers In A Potential Sino-American Trade Deal

Aixtron SE

The hopes of the U.S. and China clinching a trade deal are soaring as a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.financialexpress.com/economy/us-china-trade-talks-shift-from-beijing-to-washington-as-donald-trump-xi-jinpings-march-1-deadline-looms/1492122/">March 1 </a> deadline draws close.

As analysts deliberate several permutations and combinations that are likely to be packaged into the deal, a CNBC report suggested China may opt to increase its semiconductor imports from the U.S. to $200 billion over the next six years.

<h3>The Analyst</h3>

Discussing the likely impact of such a development, Rosenblatt Securities analyst Jun Zhang said he has Buy ratings on QUALCOMM, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>), Lumentum Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/LITE#NASDAQ">LITE</a>), NeoPhotonics Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/NPTN#NYSE">NPTN</a>) and Texas Instruments Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>). Zhang has a Neutral rating on Inphi Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/IPHI#NYSE">IPHI</a>).

<h3>The Environment Today</h3>

China&#39;s semiconductor imports from the U.S. have totaled roughly $10 billion annually in recent years, Zhang said in a Tuesday note. With most U.S. suppliers packaging their products in Taiwan, the nation has earned the distinction of being the largest semiconductor exporter to China, he said.&nbsp;

The analyst estimates that U.S. component suppliers have a 50-percent share in&nbsp;the $200 billion to $300 billion in products China exports every year.

<h3>A New Scenario</h3>

If China requires <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/19/01/12952545/goldman-sachs-shares-semiconductor-stock-picks-for-a-ch"> U.S. semiconductor companies </a> to move packaging to China, Zhang estimates that American&nbsp;exports to China would grow by five to six times. Under such a scenario, U.S. component suppliers would account for about $100 billion of U.S. exports to China every year, he said.&nbsp;

Any impact on the Taiwanese supply chain from a potential Chinese move to increase orders from U.S. component suppliers in 2019 &mdash; and move packaging from Taiwan to China &mdash; would be more short-term than mid-term, the analyst said.&nbsp;

Zhang expects the anticipated change to positively impact Chinese telecom vendors such as Huawei and high-tech companies, as he said they&#39;re the biggest buyers of semiconductors from U.S. suppliers.

<h3>Rosenblatt Names Potential Beneficiaries</h3>

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/19/02/13073689/sell-side-stays-on-sidelines-with-qualcomm-awaits-reso">Qualcomm </a> is expected to benefit at the expense of MediaTek, as the latter still lacks a 5G smartphone chipset.

U.S. chip equipment makers such as Veeco Instruments Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/VECO#NASDAQ">VECO</a>) and Lam Research Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>) are likely to take share from European and Japanese companies such as AIXTRON SE (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/AIXXF#OTC">AIXXF</a>) and TOKYO ELECTRON/ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/TOELY#OTC">TOELY</a>), as China ramps up its internal semiconductor industry.

U.S. communication chipset suppliers such as Lumentum, NeoPhotonics and Inphi would see increased use of their chipsets by Chinese telecom equipment vendors.

As China plunges headlong into the electric vehicle market over the next three years, Cypress Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/CY#NASDAQ">CY</a>), Texas Instruments, ON Semiconductor Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) and Cree, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/CREE#NASDAQ">CREE</a>) are likely to take share from NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/NXPI#NASDAQ">NXPI</a>), Infineon Technologies AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/IFNNY#OTC">IFNNY</a>) and ROHM CO LTD/ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/ROHCY#OTC">ROHCY</a>).

<h3>Memory Prices Could Drop&nbsp;</h3>

Rosenblatt expects memory prices to take a beating from a potential deal. If China buys more memory products from Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>), the firm expects Samsung to aggressively slash prices in a bid to maintain market share and push OEMs to buy other types of U.S. components.
