What Rockchip Electronics does

Fabless chip designer making ARM-based system-on-chips for tablets, smart displays, dash cams and AI edge devices.

Designs chips and has them made by outside foundries, selling them in volume to device makers and ODMs, often with software and reference designs so customers can launch quickly. Its chips sit in many mid-range products, so volume and price follow consumer-device demand more than leading-edge performance.

In one line: China's answer to a smaller MediaTek (embedded/edge SoCs).

Questions

Who are Rockchip Electronics's main competitors?
Named competitors: MediaTek (2454.TW), Allwinner Technology (300458.SZ), Qualcomm (QCOM), Amlogic (688099.SS). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes JCET (600584.SS), LONGi Green Energy Technology (601012.SS), SiTime (SITM), ASPEED Technology (5274.TWO), Shenzhen Longsys Electronics (301308.SZ), Technoprobe (TPRO.MI).
Is Rockchip Electronics expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 49.1× against a peer median of 23.2×, 3rd most expensive of 18 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 39% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +19%, so the hurdle is +21 pp: the price needs faster growth than the company has been delivering — of companies that just grew 25–50% a year, 93.8% slowed down over the next four years.
How has Rockchip Electronics stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned +16.3% against -16.5% for the median peer; over one year +13.3%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. 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.
