> **来源:[研报客](https://pc.yanbaoke.cn)** # FIT Hon Teng (6088 HK) # Strong 2026 outlook with AI interconnect/ power/thermal upgrades as key growth drivers Looking into 2026, we believe FIT is well-positioned to benefit from architecture upgrade in GB300/VR200 servers and strong product pipeline in interconnect (MCIO, cable cartridge, midplane connector), power (busbar, power whip), liquid cooling (UQD, LC busbar) and CPOs (LGA-to-LGA socket, PLS I/O cage). We forecast FIT's AI-related revenue to grow at $95\%$ CAGR in FY25-27E, accounting for $18\%$ of revenue in FY27E (vs $6\%$ in FY25E). For 4Q25/FY25E, we estimate FY25E revenue/net profit growth of $11\% / 11\%$ YoY, implying 4Q25E revenue/net profit growth of $6\% / 21\%$ YoY. We expect GTC and OFC 2026 in mid-March will be major upcoming catalysts for the stock, as market will focus on updates on scale-up interconnect and CPO solutions. We raise our TP to HK$7.33 based on new estimates and higher 21x FY26E P/E (vs prior 20x for higher AI mix and sector re-rating). The stock trades at 17.5x/12.6x FY26/27E P/E (vs 24x for 1-sd above 8-yr avg. P/E), and we expect further re-rating on higher AI revenue contribution in FY26-27E. Reiterate BUY. ■ Strong product pipeline to boost AI content value to US\(30k/rack in 2027E. Driven by rapid architecture upgrade in interconnect/cooling/power solutions for GB300/VR200, we expect FIT's AI revenue to grow at \(95\%\) FY25-27E CAGR to reach \(18\%\) mix in FY27E: 1) Interconnect (US\)10k+/rack): share gains in MCIO/cable cartridge in 2H26E and midplane connectors in 2027, 2) Power (US\)10k/rack): power busbar in 2026 and power whip in 2H26E, 3) Liquid cooling (US\)5k-10k/rack): share gains in CDU UQD in 2026 and LC busbar in 2027, 4) CPO/CPC: CPO (LGA-to-LGA socket, PLS I/O cage) in 2H26E and CPC 224G interconnect solution in 2027. ■ 4Q25E preview: strong datacenter/automobile segments dragged by smartphone weakness. We estimate 4Q25E revenue/net profit of US$1,288mn/64.3mn (+6%/21% YoY), vs 13%/9% YoY in 3Q25. By segment, we expect cloud/mobility revenue to grow 34%/68% YoY, offsetting weakness of smartphone/consumer/system products (-18%/-3%/-3% YoY) in 4Q25. We expect 4Q25E GPM/NPM to recover YoY to 20.2%/5.0% (vs 16.7%/4.4% in 4Q24) due to better AI revenue mix. ■ Stronger cloud/datacenter momentum to drive re-rating; Raise TP to HK$7.33. We believe FIT is on track to boost cloud/datacenter sales mix to low/mid/high-20% in FY26/27/28E. We've adjusted our FY25-27E EPS to reflect robust datacenter/cloud segment offset by near-term smartphone/CE weakness. Our new TP of HK$7.33 is based on new estimates and higher 21x FY26E P/E given rising AI mix and sector re-rating. Reiterate BUY.
