Top 10 Stock Nanya Technology Strong Buy Recommendation
How to read the ranks
For every stock, we judge its performance against its peers and rank it on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the rank, the better the stock performs than its peers. And, we do this for six investment strategies:
Value - shows how good of a value the stock is. Green is "inexpensive"; red is "expensive".
Growth - shows a company's growth potential. Green is "high growth" expected; red is "tough times ahead".
Safety - relates to the amount of debt a company has. Green is low debt level; red is high debt level.
Combined Financial - this isn't an average of the first three ranks but rather a consolidated view across several financial indicators. Green = good; red = tread carefully.
(NEW) Sentiment - quantifies professional analyst ratings and holdings as well as market pulse. Green = positive sentiment; red = skepticism (Only available to Premium Subscribers).
(NEW) 360° View - the ultimate rating with all financial and non-financial indicators.

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt 360° View of 81 (better than 81% compared with alternatives) for 2023, overall professional sentiment and financial characteristics for the stock Nanya Technology are very positive. The 360° View is based on consolidating four consolidated indicators, with all but one indicator above average for Nanya Technology. The consolidated Growth Rank has a good rank of 71, which means that the company experiences above-average growth momentum when looking at financial metrics such as revenue, profit, and invested capital growth, as well as stock returns. This means that growth is higher than for 71% of competitors in the same industry. The consolidated Safety Rank at 97 means that the company has a financing structure that is safer than 97% comparable companies when looking at the amount of its debt, its refinancing requirements, and its ability to service debt. Finally, the consolidated Sentiment Rank has a good rank of 57, which means that professional investors are more optimistic about the stock than for 57% of alternative investment opportunities. But the consolidated Value Rank is less desirable at 25, meaning that the share price of Nanya Technology is on the higher side compared with indicators such as revenues, profits, and invested capital. This means the stock price is higher than for 75% of alternative stocks in the same industry. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated 360° View of 81, Nanya Technology is better positioned than 81% of all alternative stock investment opportunities based on the Obermatt Method. As three out of four consolidated Obermatt Ranks exhibit excellent performance, such as above-average growth (Growth Rank of 71), a safe financing structure (Safety Rank of 97), and positive professional market sentiment (Sentiment Rank of 57), it is a solid stock investment where growth may be the strongest driver of the investment rationale, also reflected by institutional investors. It is typical for growth companies to have low value, as is the case here. Investors are willing to pay more for companies that outperform their competitors. So the question is, how much more do you pay for the stock of Nanya Technology compared with alternatives? You can use the following rule of thumb: The growth rank measures the growth momentum of the company (71% better than peers). The value rank could be the reverse reflection of that (29%). A Value Rank below that level may be assessed as expensive, a rank above that is still good value. Sometimes market sentiment just reflects the past, sometimes the reality. You pay more than the market average for this stock, but it may be worth it. ...read more
Sentiment Strategy: Professional Market Sentiment for Nanya Technology positive
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Sentiment Rank of 57 (better than 57% compared with alternatives), overall professional sentiment and engagement for the stock Nanya Technology is above average. The Sentiment Rank is based on consolidating four sentiment indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Nanya Technology. Analyst Opinions are at a rank of 100 (better than 100% of alternative investments), which means that currently, stock research analysts tend to recommend a stock investment in the company. Market Pulse is also positive with a rank of 64, which means that the current professional news and professional social networks are positive when discussing this company (more positive news than for 64% of competitors). But Analyst Opinions Change is negative with a below 50 rank of 48, which means that stock research experts are changing their opinions for the worse in recommending the company. In other words, they are getting more critical of investments in Nanya Technology. There are also only so many institutional investors holding company stock with a Professional Investors rank of 14, which means that, currently, professional investors hold less stock in this company than in 86% of alternative investment opportunities. Pros tend to invest in other companies. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Sentiment Rank of 57 (more positive than 57% compared with investment alternatives), Nanya Technology has a reputation among professional investors that is above-average compared with that of its competitors. The signals are ambivalent. The positive news in the market contradicts the negative change in analyst recommendations. Since the overall analyst recommendations are still above average, the stock may be safer for investing, especially if it is not an extra-large company where Pros tend to be less present. In such a case, the Pro Investor rank is not a problem. ...read more
Value Strategy: Nanya Technology Stock Price Value below-average critical
ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Value Rank of 25 (worse than 75% compared with alternatives), Nanya Technology shares are more expensive than the average comparable stock. The Value Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators where three out of four are below average for Nanya Technology. Only the Price-to-Book Capital ratio (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) indicates good stock value with a Price-to-Book Rank of 75, which means that the stock price is lower compared with invested capital than for 75% of comparable investments. All other value indicators are below the market median. Price-to-Sales is 23 which means the stock price compared with what market professionals expect for future profits is higher than 77% of comparable companies, indicating a low value concerning Nanya Technology's revenue levels. The same is valid for the Price-to-Book Capital ratio (also referred to as market-to-book ratio) with a Price-to-Book Rank of 75 and for the dividend yields rank which is lower than for 74% of comparable companies, making the stock more expensive as regards to with the company's expected dividend payouts. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Value Rank of 25, is a hold recommendation based on Nanya Technology's stock price compared with the company's operational size and dividend yields. Why are market participants paying such a high price for Nanya Technology, where three out of four value indicators are below par? One reason could be that the company is well financed, indicated by the high book capital level, and has a promising future that is not yet visible in reported revenues and profits. That would also explain the low dividend yield because the company needs the cash to invest in its future. If investors can verify a picture in this sense, the stock may still be a good investment, even though current company-reported financials don't fully explain current stock prices. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Growth Rank of 71 (better than 71% compared with alternatives), Nanya Technology shows an above-average growth dynamic in its industry. Investors also speak of positive momentum. The Growth Rank is based on consolidating four value indicators, with half of the indicators below and half above average for Nanya Technology.

Capital Growth is also above 6% of competitors with a rank of 74.

And Stock Returns have also been below average with a rank of only 43. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: The overall picture with a consolidated Growth Rank of 71, is a buy recommendation for growth and momentum investors. Profits are sometimes low if the company invests in the future. The positive revenue and capital investment outlook confirms such an interpretation. Both revenues and capital are solid growth indicators, and lower profits in such a case would be encouraging. But the investors see it differently by punishing the share price. Sometimes, Mister Market is not very reliable, because it is not uncommon for it to be volatile. Investors should look out for signs of growth expenditure that could justify low profit growth, and they may also find reasons why recent stock price developments don't confirm the growth outlook of operations. While operating growth indicators are not perfect, they are more reliable indicators for future performance than stock prices that can repeatedly surprise investors. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Safety Rank of 97 (better than 97% compared with alternatives) for 2023, the company Nanya Technology has safe financing practices, which means that their overall debt burden is low. This doesn't mean that the business of Nanya Technology is safe, it only means that the company is on the safer side regarding possible bankruptcy, assuming that public reporting is correct. The Safety Rank is based on consolidating three financing indicators, where all three are above average for Nanya Technology. Leverage is at 80, meaning the company has a below-average debt-to-equity ratio. It has less debt than 80% of its competitors. Refinancing is at a rank of 87, meaning that the portion of the debt about to be refinanced is below average. It has less debt in the refinancing stage than 87% of its competitors. Finally, Liquidity is also good at a rank of 73, which means that the company generates more profit to service its debt than 73% of its competitors. ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: With a consolidated Safety Rank of 97 (better than 97% compared with alternatives), Nanya Technology has a financing structure that is significantly safer than that of its competitors. These three positive financing indicators signal that the company is less likely to default on its debt obligations. However, it also means that its shareholder returns will be more modest if things go well. A low safety means fewer troubles in downtimes and less upside in good times. ...read more

ANALYSIS: With an Obermatt Combined Rank of 88 (better than 88% compared with investment alternatives), Nanya Technology (Semiconductors, Taiwan) shares have much better financial characteristics than comparable stocks. Shares of Nanya Technology are low in value (priced high) with a consolidated Value Rank of 25 (worse than 75% of alternatives). But they show above-average growth (Growth Rank of 71) and are safely financed (Safety Rank of 97, which means below-average debt burdens). ...read more
RECOMMENDATION: A Combined Rank of 88, is a strong buy recommendation based on Nanya Technology's financial characteristics. Investors looking for growth and low financial risk may find this stock attractive. While the company Nanya Technology exhibits low value (Obermatt Value Rank of 25), which means that the stock price is rather high, it also demonstrates above-average growth (Obermatt Growth Rank of 71). This is a typical case, as high-growth companies are often expensive. Good financing practices (Obermatt Safety Rank of 97) are a double-edged sword: if the company continues growing, low debt limits shareholder returns. But if the company increases its debt, it will also increase risk. In other words, this is an investment on the safer side, despite the above-average price (low value). ...read more
