National Instruments: Compelling Growth Play But Priced At A Premium

Summary National Instruments' mid to long-term transformation is compelling. However, operating challenges are weighing on the progress. Coupled with the rich P/E valuation, the risk/reward seems unattractive at current levels.

National Instruments Looks Like It May Be Building Toward Something More Interesting

National Instruments delivered a better than expected fourth quarter, with surprising operating leverage despite gross margin pressure. NATI is leveraged to growth in 5G spending, particularly controversial mmWave technologies, as well as EVs and ADAS, and offers a compelling software-based platform. Improving the company's salesforce execution/efficiency is a critical must-do, as NATI's lagging operating leverage is a key potential source of value. Giving NATI at least partial credit for meaningful operating margin improvement over the next decade, combined with good revenue growth potential, suggests attractive undervaluation.
