What China Resources Microelectronics does

State-backed maker of power semiconductors and MOSFETs plus a foundry business for third-party chip designers.

Is an integrated maker: it designs its own power chips and also runs the factories that make them, selling both finished chips and wafer-manufacturing capacity to outside designers. China Resources, a state-owned conglomerate, controls it.

In one line: China's answer to ON Semiconductor/Infineon in power discretes.

Products and services

  • Power MOSFETs/IGBTs
  • Analog & power management ICs
  • Foundry services (wafer manufacturing for others)

Customers

  • Consumer electronics makers
  • Automotive/industrial power-electronics makers
  • Fabless chip designers (foundry customers)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Semiconductors
  • Power semiconductors & foundry

What could go right

  • EV/renewable-energy power semiconductor demand
  • China power-chip localization push

What could go wrong

  • Power semiconductor pricing competition
  • Cyclical consumer/auto electronics demand

Moat: narrow (scale, distribution, installed base). Backed by state conglomerate China Resources, with an integrated design-and-foundry model in power semiconductors.

Questions

Who are China Resources Microelectronics's main competitors?
Named competitors: StarPower Semiconductor (603290.SS), Wingtech Technology (Nexperia) (600745.SS), Infineon Technologies (IFX.DE), ON Semiconductor (ON). The cockpit's measured peer set (industry) also includes Semtech (SMTC), Nexchip Semiconductor (2249.HK), Xi'an ESWIN Material Technology (688783.SS), National Silicon Industry (688126.SS), Novatek Microelectronics (3034.TW), TongFu Microelectronics (002156.SZ).
Is China Resources Microelectronics expensive compared with its peers?
On forward p/e it trades at 46.9× against a peer median of 19.9×, 6th most expensive of 17 in its peer set. For today's price to make sense, revenue must grow about 26% a year for seven years (Req g). Recent delivered growth is +10%, so the hurdle is +16 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 China Resources Microelectronics stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -13.8% against -15.3% for the median peer; over one year -7.1%.

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.
