On June 22, BYD Electronic fell 3.19% in regular trading, trading at HK$22.94/share, with turnover of HK$74.25 million. The stock has extended its recent downtrend, now approaching Citibank's target price.
On the news front, Citibank previously cut BYD Electronic's target price to HK$22.6 and assigned a \"sell\" rating, implying further downside from the current level. Citi noted that the company's Q1 revenue of RMB 38.2 billion represented a 32% quarter-over-quarter decline, far exceeding the five-year average seasonal drop of 16%. The weakness was attributed to iPhone seasonality and sluggish Android business, with gross margin falling 1.1 percentage points year-over-year to 5.2%. Management guided full-year revenue to remain flat year-over-year, with Android EMS business expected to decline, fueling cautious market sentiment toward Q2 earnings prospects.
Within the Electronic Manufacturing Services sector, the broader segment showed mixed performance. Among peers, AAC Tech down 0.08%, Karrie International down 0.69%, FIH down 1.85%, Ju Teng International up 0.72%, Yan Tat Group up 1.02%.
