What Pegatron does

Taiwanese ODM/EMS maker; assembles iPhones/electronics and is expanding into AI servers and networking gear (spun off from ASUS).

Is paid per device assembled, with component costs largely passed through, so revenue is large but margins are thin and depend on factory utilisation and yields. Apple's iPhone is its biggest customer, and the server push is partly meant to reduce that reliance. Spun out of Asus in 2008.

In one line: A Taiwan EMS peer of Jabil, Apple-focused.

Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
