Following the Taipei International Industrial Automation Exhibition, UBS recommends buying four Taiwanese firms, citing strong order backlogs extending into 2027.
What Happened
Strong Order Visibility: Following the conclusion of the Taipei International Industrial Automation Exhibition, UBS reported that order visibility for participating firms remains robust, with some backlogs extending into early 2027. UBS issued 'Buy' ratings for AirTAC, Hiwin, Advantech, and Sinbon.
Key Growth Drivers: Analysts highlighted strong demand in semiconductor equipment, AI server manufacturing, advanced packaging, and industrial automation. Hiwin, in particular, is noted for its progress in AI robotics and components for CPO (Co-Packaged Optics) equipment.
AI and Automation Trends: Advantech’s AI Agent platform is viewed as a key driver for the next wave of automation, with commercialization expected within the next two years. Additionally, the adoption of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR) in semiconductor and optoelectronics sectors was a major highlight.
Company-Specific Outlook: Sinbon is expected to benefit from increased shipments for humanoid robots, while AirTAC continues to ride the upcycle in factory automation. These companies are well-positioned to capitalize on the ongoing integration of AI and industrial automation.
