$Kulicke & Soffa Industries (KLIC.US)$🎯 On 2023.7.21, the current price is 57.1, with a 10% unrealized gain. It has been 13 months since the last review, meeting the review criteria.
Due to significant changes in the analysis method, a complete analysis is being re-conducted.
Revenue has fluctuated over the past 5 years, with an average growth rate of 13.2%. In 2022, it declined by 0.9%, but operating profit was significantly impacted by the increase in gross margin, growing by 14%. Net income continued to grow by 18.1% in 2022.
Revenue in the first half of 2023 sharply declined by 59%, operating profit by 91.3%, and net income by 88%. This is a significant change, so it's necessary to look for external news. 5 minutes later… No reliable news found.
The current PE is 8, the TTM PE has increased to 15.7. If the net income declines by 88% for the year, the PE will increase to 66, which looks very high-risk. It's better to close positions and wait and see.

$Kulicke & Soffa Industries (KLIC.US)$In the analysis in March 2022, it was selected due to a significant discount in valuation, and the stock price has since declined by 23%. The last evaluation was a clear mistake, ignoring the unsustainability of the explosive growth.
Listed in 1978, the main business is fixed equipment and consumable tools for semiconductor devices, with the main market in Asia. The current price is 47.22.
In the past 5 years, the revenue has remained high in 2021 and 2022, while it has been low in the other 3 years. The operating profit has remained above 0.4 billion in 2021 and 2022, while it has been very low in the other 3 years.

In Q1 2024, the revenue continued to decline by 2.9%, operating profit declined by 85.7%, and net income declined by 36.3%.
The current P/E ratio is 47.7, the trailing P/E ratio is 52.4, and the 5-year average net income of 0.18 billion corresponds to a P/E ratio of 14.8, which is not attractive in terms of valuation.

I believe it’s safe to say that most if not all of the holders here fell to the EV IPO hype trap.
Everyone wanted to pump and dump.
Some will manage to earn while many will become bag holders or make losses.
if there’s any lesson to be learned, it’s either to join early and gtfo fast w little gains or don’t even try.
I myself feel stupid to have taken the risk even though I managed to make a little.
