Summary of Conference Call Notes Industry Overview - The focus of the discussion is on the specialty glass fiber industry, particularly the Low CTE (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) glass fiber cloth segment [1][1]. Key Points and Arguments 1. **Supply Shortage of Low CTE Glass Fiber Cloth** - Global leader in BT substrate materials, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical, has notified customers of delivery delays extending to 4-5 months [1]. - The demand for advanced packaging from TSMC's CoWoS is driving tight supply for ABF substrate materials, which is now affecting BT substrates [1]. - There is an expectation of price increases for upstream Low CTE glass fiber cloth due to rising substrate material prices [1]. 2. **Price Increase by Nitto Denko** - Nitto Denko announced a 20% price increase for its composite materials division, which includes products like woven fabrics and chopped strands [1]. - These products were previously operating at a loss, indicating a strategic shift to improve profitability [1]. 3. **Impact of Tariffs on Exports** - The price increase may be influenced by tariffs that have hindered some Chinese exports to the U.S., leading to tight overseas supply, particularly for chopped products [2]. 4. **Real Estate Market Trends** - In the real estate sector, the rolling weekly transaction area for new homes in 30 major cities has decreased by 3% year-on-year, consistent with the previous week [3]. - Conversely, the transaction area for second-hand homes in 12 cities has increased by 3% year-on-year, although this is a decline from the previous week's 16% [3]. Additional Insights - The price increase for Nitto Denko's products is expected to benefit Chinese companies with overseas production capabilities, such as China Jushi [3]. - A recommended investment strategy includes focusing on domestic substitution chains, with a preference for Zhongcai Technology, and considering companies like Keda Manufacturing and Huaxin Cement in the African supply chain [4]. - The report suggests that despite low market expectations, companies like Sankeshu and Rabbit Baby are showing signs of operational improvement in Q2 [4].
