3. Acquisition purpose and impact:
1) mainly to enrich and improve the industrial chain layout, master the main material links and improve the cost control. The target itself forms a good synergy with the company’s main new energy and power business. Specifically, in the new energy industrial chain, Jiangsu Zhongtian Technology Co.Ltd(600522) will extend to the upstream materials required for the production of high-performance lithium ion lithium battery; In the power industry chain, ztmns energy-saving switchgear of Zhongtian Electric Technology will help the company improve the layout of the industry chain.
2) looking forward to the future, the company will focus on high-quality growth and continuously improve its comprehensive competitiveness around the booming industry direction of new energy / new infrastructure / smart grid.
Profit forecast and investment suggestions:
On the whole, (1) the optical fiber and cable industry is expected to show a sustained upward trend, and the performance elasticity of price rise can be expected. (2) Under the trend of 30.60 and parity Internet access, the offshore wind power industry has broad growth space in the future. As the leader of China submarine cable & Marine Engineering, the company is expected to fully benefit. We emphasize that the space and prosperity of sea breeze must be viewed from the perspective of the next 5-10 years. The overall market prospect is very considerable. At the same time, we need to pay attention to the company’s global layout and global market. (3) The company’s new energy (photovoltaic, energy storage and copper foil) business is still poorly expected. This business will usher in unprecedented development opportunities. The strong growth and competitiveness of the company’s new energy business can not be ignored. (4) The power business is highly competitive and is expected to fully benefit from the construction of new power system and the growth of power grid investment in the future, which is expected to show a stable and rapid growth trend. It is estimated that the net profit of the company in 21-23 years will be 120 million yuan, 3.85 billion yuan and 4.7 billion yuan, corresponding to 1.6 billion yuan in 22 years 8x, maintain the “buy” rating.
Risk warning: the operation of the underlying assets is less than expected, the upstream raw materials continue to maintain high price risk, the production expansion progress is less than expected, and the bidding rhythm and scale of the industry are less than expected
