AI Summary
CTS is a strategic-transition investment: strong cash conversion, expanding margins, and a net-cash balance sheet support its move into higher-value medical and industrial sensing, but at elevated valuation multiples, investors should demand evidence that Millar/Sentron integration and non-automotive design wins generate durable organic growth and returns.
