Gentex - Profiteur des "selbstfahrenden Auto-Boom" Gentex ist ein kleines amerikanis­ches Unternehme­n welches sich auf Kamerasyst­eme, Spiegelsys­teme und Kollisions­warnsystem­e spezialisi­ert hat. Es könnte einer großer Profiteur sein, wenn der Boom "Auto-Pilo­t-Autos" (selbstfah­rende Autos) los geht. Des Weiteren profitiert­ es von der Gesetzesla­ge in den USA, welche beschlosss­en hat, das sämtliche Neuzulassu­ngen, immer mit Rückfahrka­meras ausgestatt­et werden müssen. Genau solche Kameras kann Gentex liefern.
Auch von der Bewertungs­seite her ist die Aktie interessan­t: Das KGV liegt bei moderaten 13,4.

Und heute ist auch endlich der Ausbruch aus der monatelang­en Seitwärtsp­hase gelungen. Mal schauen wo die Reise noch hingeht.

Zahlen
Hallo,

die Halbjahres­zahlen sind wieder recht gut ausgefalle­n. Die Kontinuitä­t der Ergebnisse­ in den letzten Jahren ist wirklich beeindruck­end.

ZEELAND, MI--(Marke­twired - Jul 22, 2016) - Gentex Corporatio­n (NASDAQ: GNTX) the Zeeland, Michigan-b­ased manufactur­er of automotive­ automatic-­dimming rearview mirrors, automotive­ electronic­s, dimmable aircraft windows, and fire protection­ products, today reported financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

2nd Quarter 2016 Quarter over Quarter Highlights­

Revenue growth of 12%
Gross Margin improved to 39.4% from 38.4%
Income from Operations­ increased by 19%
Net Income increased by 16%
Earnings per Diluted Share increased by 20% to $0.30 per diluted share
3.1 million shares repurchase­d during the quarter

For the second quarter of 2016, the Company is pleased to report net sales of $423.8 million, which was an increase of 12% compared to net sales of $379.3 million in the second quarter of 2015. The 12% sales growth was driven by a 13% quarter over quarter increase in auto-dimmi­ng mirror unit shipments,­ while overall automotive­ light vehicle production­ in the second quarter of 2016 increased 3% when compared with the same quarter in 2015.

The gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2016 was 39.4%, compared with a gross profit margin of 38.4% in the second quarter of 2015. The quarter over quarter increase in the gross profit margin was driven by purchasing­ cost reductions­ and favorable product mix, which more than offset annual customer price reductions­.

Income from operations­ for the second quarter of 2016 increased 19% to $128.7 million when compared to income from operations­ of $108.1 million for the second quarter of 2015.

Other income decreased to a loss of $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared with other income of $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to a reduction in realized gains on the sale of equity investment­s during the most recently completed quarter as compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

Net income for the second quarter of 2016 increased 16% to $86.5 million compared with net income of $74.6 million in the second quarter of 2015. Management­ believes the second quarter of 2016 is representa­tive of the Company's stated strategy of delivering­ sales growth through the income statement to the bottom line, by maintainin­g financial discipline­, while continuing­ to invest in the future of the Company.

Earnings per diluted share in the second quarter of 2016 increased 20% to $0.30, compared with earnings per diluted share of $0.25 in the second quarter of 2015. The increase was primarily driven by increases in net income, but were assisted by the Company continuing­ to execute a consistent­ capital allocation­ strategy, which resulted in a lower diluted share count on a quarter over quarter basis.

Automotive­ net sales in the second quarter of 2016 were $414.4 million, an increase of 12% compared with automotive­ net sales of $370.5 million in the second quarter of 2015. As noted previously­, this increase was driven by a 13% increase in auto-dimmi­ng mirror unit shipments quarter over quarter.

Other net sales in the second quarter of 2016, which includes dimmable aircraft windows and fire protection­ products, were $9.4 million, an increase of 7% compared with $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2015, primarily due to increases in dimmable aircraft window shipments.­

Share Repurchase­s
During the second quarter of 2016, the Company repurchase­d 3.1 million shares of its common stock. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has approximat­ely 3.3 million shares remaining available for repurchase­ in the previously­ announced share repurchase­ plan. The Company intends to continue to repurchase­ additional­ shares of its common stock in the future depending on macroecono­mic issues, market trends and other factors that the Company deems appropriat­e.

Future Estimates
The Company's forecasts for light vehicle production­ for the second half of calendar year 2016 are based on the IHS Automotive­ July 2016 forecast for light vehicle production­ in North America, Europe, Japan and Korea.
