Long-Short Analysis on Japan, Asia and the World

LightStream Research

LightStream conducts quantitatively rigorous and data-driven analysis with a focus on Japan and Asia.

We consistently cover the Tech, Consumer and Industrial sectors, and provide ECM and Events coverage more broadly.

We supplement traditional qualitative insights from company relationships with a robust quantitative foundation that examines as much historical data as is available.
We further refine the accuracy of our insights and calls through the use of alternative data to flesh out current trends, and through a valuation framework that emphasises non-superficial peer group selection and a proper attempt to understand the metrics and changes that have driven security valuations in the past.

Estimates by various consultancy and industry bodies expect China’s IoT industry to grow at a stronger rate over the forecast period (c. 27% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over 2019-2025), surpassing US spending on IoT.A growing focus on Industrial IoT (IIoT) has become a key trend in the Chinese IoT industry. Initially, IoT was mainly adopted by the consumer sector, particularly in developing smart devices and smart homes. Given the country’s large manufacturing base, IIoT is seen as a sector with the highest growth potential for IoT services. IIoT is still in its nascent stage and we believe that China is well-positioned for growth in this sector.We have identified seventeen emerging IoT companies across key IoT application areas: smart device, home, city and building, IoT and cloud platform, manufacturing and IIoT, automotive and transportation systems and other IoT solutions. Based on industry estimates, IoT and cloud platforms are areas which are likely to witness the highest growth rates over the medium term. Over the longer term, however, we believe that manufacturing and IIoT-related companies will enjoy the strongest growth rates as manufacturers start adopting IoT services throughout their production processes. In terms of IoT platform services, the two names of interest are Gizwits and China Mobile IoT. On the manufacturing and IIoT side, we believe that RootCloud and Thingple have attractive potential for growth. In the smart devices and homes application segment, Yeelink and Tuya Smart caught our attention for their continued efforts in developing product technologies to meet growing IoT needs. In the automotive and transportation systems segment, Roadstar.ai, Deeproute.ai and Uhnder have caught our attention for their efforts in developing technologies for autonomous driving.
