The company urges investors to carefully read the full text of “risk factors” in this prospectus and pay special attention to the following risks: (I) overseas business risks
For a long time, the company has mainly sold products to overseas customers. In 2018, 2019, 2020 and January September 2021, the company’s main business income from outside China was 729654400 yuan, 1020776400 yuan, 1379399200 yuan and 1418631400 yuan respectively, accounting for 81.99%, 86.51%, 88.31% and 87.62% of the company’s main business income respectively, Among them, the proportion from North America is 41.41%, 45.04%, 44.64% and 49.95% respectively. There is a risk of relying on the North American market to a certain extent. By the end of the reporting period, the company’s overseas sales had spread to more than 70 countries and regions around the world. At the same time, the company also set up overseas branches in North America, Europe and other major regions. If the bilateral relations between China and the above-mentioned countries or regions change in the future, or there are major adverse changes in the market environment, industry and foreign trade policies of the above-mentioned countries or regions, the daily operation and profitability of the company in relevant countries and regions will be greatly adversely affected.
Especially in recent years, trade frictions between China and the United States have been escalating, and the U.S. government has continuously increased the scope and intensity of tariffs on Chinese imports. In addition, if the Sino US trade friction intensifies in the future, the United States sets other trade barriers to the company’s products, and the company fails to take effective measures to eliminate the impact, it will lead to the decline of the competitiveness of the company’s products in the U.S. market, which will have a significant adverse impact on the company’s business performance.
At the same time, in terms of raw material procurement, a small part of the company’s raw materials are from the United States or belong to American brands. If the subsequent Sino US trade friction intensifies, in order to prevent market fluctuations, the company may further increase the stock, which may lead to the increase of raw materials and the occupation of relevant funds. In addition, if China increases the import tariff rate of the above raw materials in this trade friction, and the company fails to seek alternative raw materials in time, the operating cost of the company will be increased, which will compress the profit space of the company and have a significant adverse impact on the operating performance.
(II) risks of intellectual property disputes
Considering the company’s strategy of global operation, the legal environment faced by overseas operation is complex, and with the company’s continuous expansion of new business areas, intellectual property disputes caused by market competitors or other subjects for various purposes may be difficult to completely avoid. At present, the company has litigation disputes related to intellectual property rights with snap on and orange Electronics Co. Ltd., which have not been settled.
Due to the complexity of investigation, application, authorization, negotiation and judgment of intellectual property rights, if the company fails to properly handle all kinds of complex intellectual property problems and disputes, and loses potential intellectual property litigation in the future, it may lead to adverse consequences such as compensation for losses, payment of high attorney fees, patent license fees, suspension of production and sales of products, etc, If such circumstances occur, they may have a significant adverse impact on the company’s production and operation. (III) risk of raw material supply
The raw materials required by the company are mainly IC chips, resistors and capacitors, PCB circuit boards, diodes, triodes, liquid crystal displays, etc. On the whole, the company needs a large number of suppliers in raw materials and related industries, and the supply is sufficient. However, the update and upgrading speed of IC chips, LCD and other major consumer electronic components is fast. With the intergenerational change of products, the supply of original models of products may be insufficient due to production reduction and shutdown. Since these main raw materials directly affect the company’s product design scheme, the company needs to change the product design accordingly according to these main raw materials. If the company fails to make response adjustment or find alternative schemes in time, the supply of these raw materials may be insufficient in stages, which may have an adverse impact on the company’s production and operation. In addition, some of the IC and electronic components currently used in the company’s products are imported, and the global supply chain, especially the semiconductor industry, will face many challenges from 2020. Since 2018, the company has increased the stock of some key chips, and the overall stock scale has increased. During the reporting period, the purchase amount of IC chips of the company was 110.0663 million yuan, 134.9915 million yuan, 160.9741 million yuan and 310.8859 million yuan respectively. If the Sino US trade friction and the extreme situation of the international economic and trade situation lead to the lengthening of the procurement cycle of some materials, especially key chips, violent price fluctuations or the inability to import smoothly, and the company fails to reasonably adjust the production and sales arrangement, timely take measures to adjust the product design, find alternative solutions or transfer the procurement and production abroad, It may have an adverse impact on the company’s production and operation. 6、 Measures and commitments on filling the immediate return (I) measures taken by the issuer to dilute the immediate return of this offering
