Morphology
The phrase is a straightforward modifier + head compound: 'electronics' specifies the domain and 'company' names the organization, so the combined meaning 'a company that makes or sells electronic products' is directly derivable from the parts. This compositional pattern is common in English and other languages, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Electronics company is a name made by joining electronics, meaning devices like radios, TVs and phones that use electricity, and company, meaning a business. So it means 'a business that makes or sells electronic products'.
