STANLY hit by floods and weak Q1, but EV tax policy and stimulus offer recovery

  • Floods halt Honda and Toyota production, STANLY most exposed Flooding in Chonburi and Rayong forced Honda and Toyota to pause plants, disrupting just-in-time parts supply. STANLY is seen as hardest hit because Honda alone is 33% of its revenue. Lost output may be recovered later, but overtime and freight costs could squeeze margins.

    This is the most recent and direct negative shock to STANLY's near-term sales and earnings.

  • Weak Q1 profit as Honda cuts orders amid Chinese EV competition STANLY's fiscal Q1 net profit fell 2% year-on-year and 19% quarter-on-quarter, missing market expectations. Sales dropped 9% as key customer Honda cut production due to intense competition from Chinese electric vehicles. The company kept a strong gross margin, but recovery depends on a broader auto rebound.

    This shows the underlying earnings pressure that explains why the stock is not rising despite some positive policy news.

  • EV excise tax plan favors local parts, benefiting STANLY The government approved in principle a restructured EV excise tax that gives lower rates to carmakers using more Thai-made parts. This should push EV makers to buy from local suppliers like STANLY. However, exact rates and timing are still unclear, so the near-term earnings boost is limited.

    This is a new policy catalyst that could support demand for STANLY's parts over the medium term.

  • STANLY holds sales, cuts costs, and expects second-half recovery Despite a 10% drop in the auto market, STANLY kept sales flat by adding new products and non-automotive business. It has nearly 10 billion baht in cash, no debt, and is investing in automation to cut costs. Management expects a second-half recovery from government stimulus and new model launches.

    This shows the company's resilience and self-help measures that could support future earnings and the stock.

DENSO CORPORATION (6902.JP)

Q3 2026

Denso profit miss and quake supply hit outweigh Micron deal

  • April–June profit falls 14%, full-year forecast misses estimates Denso's quarterly net profit dropped 14.4% to 67.8 billion yen as higher material costs and growth spending squeezed margins. Revenue rose on electrification and smart products, but the unchanged full-year profit forecast of 382 billion yen badly missed the 424.6 billion yen analysts expected. The earnings miss is the main reason the stock plunged on July 31.

    This is the single biggest new company-specific event and directly explains the stock's sharp fall.

  • Kumamoto earthquake forces Toyota plant halts, Denso checks suppliers Toyota will stop its Tahara plant from August 3–7 and extend shutdowns at three Fukuoka plants after the Kumamoto earthquake damaged Aisin Kyushu's factory. Denso is investigating damage at its own suppliers. Multi-tier supply chains take time to assess, so production cuts at major customers threaten Denso's near-term sales and parts deliveries.

    A fresh supply-chain disruption that can reduce Denso's production and revenue in coming weeks.

  • Micron multi-year AI memory deals include Denso as partner Micron completed long-term Strategic Customer Agreements with seven automotive suppliers, including Denso, securing advanced memory and storage for AI-enabled vehicles. For Denso, this locks in supply visibility and pricing certainty for key electronics, supporting its intelligent-product roadmap. The deals are a modest positive but not enough to offset the profit miss.

    A new partnership that supports Denso's technology and supply outlook, though smaller than the earnings hit.
