QUAM PULSE Smart Hardware Developers Struggle to Break Homogenization (China Economic Net) – According to iResearch, the scale of the domestic smart hardware market will reach RMB30bn in China this year. There is optimism that with the combination of intelligent hardware technology and traditional home industries, the scale of intelligent hardware market will increase more rapidly and is expected to top RMB100bn in the short term. Intelligent hardware is endowed with leading consumption upgrades from wearable devices to intelligent domestic appliances. Through combination with advanced technologies such as internet of things, big data and cloud computing, intelligent hardware has become the breakthrough point for transformation and upgrading of the traditional domestic appliance manufacturing industry. According to the Academy of Information and Communication Technology, from vertical dimension of industrial application, intelligent hardware will provide RMB3tri of development dividend for the industries. Our Take: Apart from hardware, we saw that enterprises in both up and downstream of the industrial chain have accelerated their speed in forming cooperation relationships, with many traditional enterprises actively introducing intelligent hardware. As such, Qingdao Haier Intelligent Home Appliances Technology Co. Ltd., a subsidiary of Haier Group (1169 HK), has just announced the establishment of a joint-venture with Liaison Interactive Information technology (002280 CH), a company which produces market information system and software, last week. This marks a step forward for Haier to embed advanced smart technology into its home appliances. Haier trades at only 10.3x P/E for 2015E, according to Bloomberg consensus.
