Nvidia and Apple Supplier Nitto Boseki Trades at Undervalued Price
Nitto Boseki Co., Ltd. (NBCLF) is a Japanese specialty glass manufacturer that has gone largely under the radar despite its crucial role in supplying critical components to major tech players like NVIDIA and Apple.
The company's Electronics Materials segment drives 84% of operating profit, reflecting strong demand and pricing power amid the AI boom. This growth is attributed to NBCLF's unique T-Glass product, which is used for advanced chip packaging.
NBCLF is trading at a trailing GAAP P/E of 11.09x, making it undervalued relative to sector peers. The author argues that the company's superior profitability and sector positioning justify a rerating.
