We are lowering our FY3/12 OP forecast for Nidec Sankyo. While we had previously expected YoY growth in sales and profit for LCD panel handling robots, we now believe declines are possible, considering the deterioration in supply/demand conditions for LCD panels. While we expect positive impacts from expansion in existing businesses and the startup of new businesses, we believe profit growth is likely to slow temporarily in FY3/12.

While Daishinku faces negative pressure from the strong yen and the growing possibility that orders in the crystal device business as a whole will remain listless for the time being, we believe that there is an increasing likelihood the company will see profit growth in FY3/12, owing to factors unique to the company, such as an expansion in shipments to smartphone makers (smartphone sales are increasing) and the attainment of profit at businesses that were previously posting losses.

We are lowering our earnings forecasts and price objective for Enplas. These downward revisions mainly reflect the slump in products for PC peripherals and the deterioration in profitability along with yen appreciation. As we had expected, both sales and customer numbers are expanding steadily for the company's LED caps (in the optical devices business), a product on which we are focusing. Although we are lowering our earnings forecasts, we believe the shares are undervalued at current prices considering the prospects for profit growth. Accordingly, we reiterate our Outperform rating.

We are lowering both our earnings forecasts and price objective for Nihon Dempa Kogyo. Whereas we had previously expected earnings growth on the back of stable prices for crystal devices thanks to a tight supply/demand balance, we estimate that both orders and production began to outstrip real demand in early spring, and we therefore now expect the company to suffer a backlash as a result. We reiterate our Outperform

We are initiating our coverage of Nippon Ceramic with an Outperform rating and a price objective of JPY1,900. We believe that the company is on the brink of a sales expansion, as stricter energy conservation and safety regulations for consumer products, and support from government policies, should bolster demand for infrared sensors used in consumer appliances, ultrasonic sensors for rear-parking systems in cars, and current (electrical charge) sensors for hybrid and electric automobiles.

We are revising our earnings forecasts for Aoi Electronics. While there are concerns over possible inventory adjustments in LED-related products for TVs in 2H FY3/11, we believe the company will be able to compensate with sales in other businesses. We are lowering our OP forecast to reflect the possibility of higher pressure to reduce processing fees along with yen appreciation and increased fixed costs. Heading into FY3/12, we expect a continuation of the upward trend in profit on expansion in LED-related business and increased sales in other businesses.

We are revising our earnings forecasts for Murata Mfg. to reflect the changes to our forecast for the PC market (see our 1 September Revisions to finished product shipment volume estimates report) and our forex assumptions.

In FY3/11, NGK Spark Plug's auto components segment has been recovering sharply, leading to a rapid upturn in profits. We expect earnings growth to slow significantly in 2H and beyond, however, as programs providing subsidies for auto purchasing draw to a close in many countries and forex rates weigh on profits. We reiterate our Underperform rating.

We are revising our outlook for the PC market (see our 1 September Revisions to finished product shipment volume estimates report), but believe double-digit OP growth at Nidec in FY3/12 is possible as we expect the positive effects of the Emerson Electric acquisition to offset the negative impact from forex and other factors. We reiterate our Outperform rating.

We are raising our estimates for SIIX in light of interviews with the company. Sales and OP trends appear largely unchanged at this time. The company is making progress toward its goals of achieving growth among existing key clients and developing new clients.
