Investment Opportunities
1. High-end ceramic powder sees value leap with MLCC upgrades and iterations. Analysts point out that AI servers impose more stringent requirements on MLCCs compared to consumer electronics, creating a dual driver for ceramic powder. First, finer particle size requirements drive ceramic powder towards nano-level and high-purity upgrades. Second, the multiplication of stacking layers drives a significant increase in both the usage and cost proportion of ceramic powder.
In terms of MLCC cost structure, ceramic materials account for a relatively high proportion: 20%-25% in low-capacitance MLCCs and 35%-45% in high-capacitance MLCCs. Due to complex preparation processes, long R&D cycles, and high barriers to downstream customer validation, the global competitive landscape for ceramic materials is relatively concentrated. The number of domestic companies producing ceramic materials is gradually increasing, with rising output. Zhongtai Securities believes that MLCC ceramic powder benefits from a three-stage amplification effect: surging AI server demand → increased MLCC per-unit load → higher per-unit consumption of ceramic powder. Coupled with the value leap from high-end ceramic powder upgrades alongside MLCC iterations, MLCC ceramic powder is expected to enter a structural upward channel led by technology premiums, with promising price elasticity.
2. AI hardware iteration drives PCB value upward, with revenue growth for leading companies in the supply chain showing a notable increase. Reports indicate that several leading PCB supply chain companies recently released May revenue data, showing significant acceleration in revenue growth for PCB board manufacturers, copper-clad laminate (CCL) producers, and drill bit makers, with some companies reporting year-on-year increases exceeding 100%.
AI hardware iteration is driving a substantial increase in PCB value, while the industry accelerates its transition to semiconductor-grade processes, making it one of the steepest value growth segments in the AI hardware supply chain. Guojin Securities notes that current high-end PCBs, premium CCLs, and specialty drill bits face extremely high technical barriers. Core technologies such as hundred-layer orthogonal backplanes, M9/M10 high-end materials, mSAP, and CoWoP are only mass-produced by a few leading companies. Coupled with tight supply of high-end production equipment and lengthy customer certification cycles, capacity and technology have become core moats. Downstream customers, considering yield and R&D efficiency, continue to concentrate resources with leading manufacturers, increasing industry concentration. Companies that first break through technical bottlenecks and secure high-end capacity will benefit from both volume-price increases and market share gains.
