TipWhy This Matters

Founded 2002 in Shenzhen; once called China’s ‘fingerprint chip king,’ a major global supplier of fingerprint and touch sensor ICs to smartphone makers. FY2025 revenue was ¥4.74 billion (+8.2%) and net profit ¥837 million (+38.7%), helped by ultrasonic fingerprint sensors in commercial use since Q4 2024. H1 2026 reversed: revenue ¥2.06 billion (−8.4%) and net profit ¥252 million (−41.6%). The September 2026 CSRC penalty decision (〔2026〕36号) against former president Liu Yuping for insider trading (≈¥98,400 gains confiscated, ¥1.5m total fines) closed a governance overhang that had shadowed the stock — market cap ~¥24 billion in early September vs a ~¥170 billion peak. Design-win momentum persisted: the Nubia NaviX Ultra (16 September) pairs Goodix ultrasonic + side-capacitive fingerprint sensors, the car-grade BLE GR5410 (Bluetooth 6.1 Channel Sounding) won multiple OEM/Tier-1 projects with trial production in H1, and management targets ~20% ultrasonic penetration of Android flagships in 2026 (from ~10% in 2025). Its ‘fingerprint chip king’ standing dates from its 2017 market lead.
