LED industry once again ushered in the tide of acquisition


As LED lighting has gradually become a mainstream trend in the society, especially in 2014, it has been draped in a fiery cloak. In order to improve resource utilization, LED leading companies are actively expanding and preparing for this year, which is favored by industry entrepreneurs. The powerful means of preparing for the war is first reflected in the tide of acquisition. It was not very obvious at the beginning of the year, but by the time of May, I was shocked by the small series. The tide of resource integration is coming? LED market out of chaos steadily into the fast lane? Does this mean that industry reshuffle also enters the fast lane? I don't know what you think of them in the industry? Maybe you may not have counted how many territories the acquisition army occupied in May. Maybe you don't know which companies are missing the land. I will give you a breakdown of who the acquisition wave is.
What is the unease of the acquisition of foreign giants?
To say that foreign acquisitions, not only let Xiaobian think that Apple has acquired LuxVueTechnology. LuxVue has acquired KD, iDVenturesAmerica and other investors for a total of $43 million in financing.
In the past few years, although LuxVue has been very low-key. What the outside world knows is that the company is developing low-energy, miniature LED displays for consumer electronics. Rumor has it that the company will be responsible for the new GoogleGlass display technology, the company holds patents that allow LED displays to get better pictures while reducing energy consumption.
Not surprisingly, after Apple acquired LuxVue, it will incorporate the latter technology into Apple's hardware innovation to improve battery life and increase screen brightness, so resource integration is also required by Apple's market. The editor of OFweek Semiconductor Lighting Network believes that this acquisition will save Apple time to build this technology, thereby further accelerating Apple's pace of market acquisition.
Maybe you think that Apple's acquisition is related to the LED industry. It is the relationship between the editor and the editor. The next thing I talk about is the ONSemiconductor. For his relationship with LED, we are self-evident. It announced that it has completed the acquisition of high-performance image sensor supplier Truesense Imaging, Inc. TruesenseImaging's products are used in a variety of industrial end markets, including machine vision, security surveillance, traffic monitoring, medical and scientific imaging, and photography. The acquisition was completed on April 30th, US time, and was announced in the company's first quarter results announcement.
Adjusted for the amount of cash and working capital, ON Semiconductor paid for the purchase of TruesenseImaging with an internal cash available of approximately US$95 million. ON Semiconductor expects the acquisition to immediately add value to the company's revenue and gross profit, excluding any non-recurring acquisition related expenses. And amortization of vested intangible assets. Based on the audited results, TruesenseImaging's revenue in 2013 was approximately US$79 million, with gross profit margin and operating margins of 44 and 23.
Xiaobian understands that the acquisition of TruesenseImaging by Ansonmei is actually to strengthen the leading position of ON Semiconductor's global suppliers of high-efficiency image sensing solutions and strengthen its product lineup for the industrial terminal market. What can this acquisition bring to the LED project? I can only say that I will wait and see.
But for the next time, I want to talk about the Merck Group, I don’t think everyone knows it. Let me reveal what happened to Merck’s acquisition.
First, Merck is a leading manufacturer of high-tech products in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. In December 2013, it proposed to acquire Anzhi electronic materials in cash of nearly 1.9 billion euros (about NT$78 billion). The current acquisition process has been accepted by Anzhi shareholders. Threshold 75; and obtained approval from the anti-monopoly law of the US, Japan, Taiwan, Germany, and mainland China government units.
Merck pointed out that the acquisition of Anzhi Electronic Materials will merge into a global high-tech and functional special-purpose chemical solution provider in the future. However, the focus of Anzhi Electronics is that it is widely used in integrated circuits and equipment, flat panel displays, and light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Its chemical technology has become a global electronic industry chain upgrade process, and Merck has been opening up the market for LED materials. The progress is not very obvious, this acquisition may give Merck an unexpected result in the future LED materials industry.
After counting the foreign acquisitions and looking at the domestic market, what do you find weak? What is spike? What is competition?
The domestic wave of reshuffle over the foreign countries is the real acquisition of LED in the domestic battlefield. First of all, what I want to say is true Mingli. He said that I believe that no one is unfamiliar in the industry and engaged in stock investment. He gives people The most influential one word deficit. What I used to make Xiaobian puzzled is that the company that has been losing money, what support he relies on now. After seeing the same party at the beginning of the year, I saw his hope. Xiaobian I am not here to comment on this, I want to say that Zhen Mingli acquired the remaining 50 shares of Tivoli to wholly-owned, to integrate the Group's distribution of LED products in the United States, the latter engaged in the trading of lighting products.
However, it is understood that as of the end of March this year, the annual loss of Zhen Mingli will exceed the same period last year. From all kinds of signs, even if the loss, the true Ming LED heart will not die. Sometimes it is said that the popular point is that people can't always carry their backs. What is lacking is the insistence. I think that being really bright is the best interpretation.
There are still some companies here, but I don't want to say it. In fact, they are all similar. I will talk briefly. Let's talk about Lianchuang Optoelectronics. It announced on the evening of May 12 that the company plans to invest 21.5 million yuan to acquire Yumei's 39.30 equity in Lianchuang Cable, thereby optimizing the equity structure of Lianchuang Cable and speeding up the transformation and upgrading of the company's cable business segment. After the acquisition, the company will hold a 93.3 stake in Lianchuang Cable.
Xiaobian I believe that this acquisition is only an effective supplement to the company's industry and will accelerate the transformation and upgrading of its cable business segment.
And in the upcoming Hongli Optoelectronics, Xiaobian I still have to say a few words. The impact of Hongli on me is low-key, and there is still a certain gap between the brand and the market. Popularly speaking, it is not active enough. It is not that their products are poor. It is emphasized here to prevent everyone from misunderstanding.
Having said that, I want to say that on the evening of May 19, Hongli Optoelectronics announced that the company intends to use its own funds of 16.05 million yuan to acquire the 30 shares of Dongguan Xinquan Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd. held by Wang Gan. For this acquisition, Dongguan Xinquan Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. is a lighting company that is doing LED downstream. From this point, Xiaobian believes that the acquisition of Hongli will be in line with the current market said that the packaging factory is rushing to eat lighting. Really burning money and chaos? Xiaobian I think this is also the layout of the industry chain. The upstream also comes to grab the downstream lighting, in fact, it is not strange. Xiaobian commented on a sentence, whether it is upstream food or mid-game rushing, the only way to make money is the right way.
Next is a pair of marriages that are more optimistic in the industry recently. That is, on the 19th, Weiwei shares signed an equity transfer agreement with all shareholders of Zhongshan Pinshang Lighting Co., Ltd., and agreed to transfer 100 shares of the lighting on the cash. The parties to the agreement took the estimated value of the product lighting of 122.5 million yuan as the initial transfer consideration.
Xiaobian I think that the marriage between Dehao Runda and NVC is a political marriage, which has attracted the attention of the industry. However, the shares of Weiwei and the lighting on the goods belong to free love, and the happiness index is high. Maybe because I am the reason for the reeling. I am more optimistic about the latter.
why?
Not to mention anything else, in terms of lighting itself, it is already a well-known company in the domestic commercial lighting field. With more than ten years of experience in the domestic lighting market, it has established a relatively complete market layout and dealer network, which has Certain influence.
And Weiwei has been expanding the lighting market. The lighting on this acquisition is not only an important part of implementing the company's strategy of exploring the domestic market, but more importantly, the acquisition will enable the company to quickly cut into the domestic lighting with huge market capacity. The market, to a certain extent, will reduce the risk of the company's overseas market share being too high.
In addition to omitting some other acquisitions, the last thing I want to talk about is a major news on the 26th. Shenzhen Konka announced that its major shareholder, OCT Group, plans to spend 248 million yuan to acquire the equity of 100 of Konka's Konka Video Systems Engineering Co., Ltd.
It is understood that due to overcapacity and price decline in the LED industry in recent years, in the three major segments of display, backlight and lighting, the LED display market is difficult to make money due to excessive competition. Some LED display companies are also seeking transformation, focusing on LED lighting in the market. Yes, Konka video is in a loss state, and the other is to pay off debts.
The acquisition of OFweek Semiconductor Lighting Network Xiaobian feels that this is also a trend, and it will be acquired by OCT. In the future, Konka video may have a turnaround. But Xiaobian I have been engaged in the lighting industry. I am more concerned about the development status of Konka Lighting.
The LED industry in May can be described as the acquisition of tides and waves is higher than a wave, then how about June, please listen to the translation of the OFweek semiconductor lighting network.
