Renesas has been a star performer for Sean Maher (+80% YTD) and he now adds Rohm to his basket of stocks - trades on a sub 14x PER and is targeting sales of 600bn JPY at an operating margin of 20% and an ROE of 6% by FY25. As well as being a play on power efficient materials like SiC, Rohm’s ultra-high-speed Control IC technology maximizes the performance of gallium nitride (GaN), which offers higher breakdown strength, faster switching speed, and higher thermal conductivity - power devices based on GaN significantly outperform silicon-based devices. GaN high-speed switching devices will become more important as AI capex explodes and energy / compute efficiency is a priority.
