Investment advice

Affected by the uncertainty of overseas epidemic and shipping, the price of panel industry continues to decline, and the gross profit margin of the company is under great pressure. In addition, the consolidated production capacity of Suzhou Samsung line climbs rapidly, and the consolidated income growth exceeds the previous expectation. Therefore, the growth expectation of the company’s operating income is raised and the profit growth expectation of the company is lowered. It is estimated that the company’s revenue will increase from 129.52/154.54/174.34 billion yuan to 163.52/181.88/206.25 billion yuan in 21-23 years, and the EPS will decrease from 0.87/1.11/1.24 to 0.72/0.80/0.97 yuan in 21-23 years, corresponding to 10.7/9.67/7.95 times of the current price PE respectively.
