Synnex rides AI, Apple, solar demand; cost pressures build
Strong Q2 profit and dividend Synnex reported Q2 2026 profit up 17% to THB 223 million and declared an interim dividend of THB 0.10 per share. Broker price targets rose as high as THB 12.60, with the stock named a top pick.
This is the core financial result that directly supports the stock's positive momentum.
Solar and AI growth engines Solar sales jumped 913% and inverters 1,751%, while AI infrastructure, cloud (with AWS), and device-as-a-service expanded. A solar rooftop subsidy could further boost demand, and the company reaffirmed its THB 53 billion 2026 revenue target.
These new growth areas are key drivers behind the bullish outlook and revenue target.
Apple product cycle support Expected demand for iPhone 18 and foldable devices backs the revenue target, with brokers highlighting Synnex as a top pick. This reinforces its core distribution business and near-term sales visibility.
Apple product launches are a major demand catalyst for Synnex's distribution segment.
Rising component costs pressure margins Memory, storage, and chip costs are climbing due to AI competition, and expected iPhone price hikes make inventory and margin management harder if costs aren't fully passed on. This could squeeze profitability despite strong sales.
This is the main counterweight that could offset positive demand trends and hurt earnings.
