China semiconductor silicon pioneer
According to the announcement of Hangzhou Lion Electronics Co.Ltd(605358) , since its establishment in 2002, the company has always focused on the R & D, manufacturing and sales of semiconductor materials and semiconductor power devices for integrated circuits. In 2015, the subsidiary Leon Dongxin was established to enter the field of compound semiconductor RF chips. The company was once selected as "2017 China's top ten semiconductor power device enterprises" by China Semiconductor Industry Association. Zhejiang jinruihong, a subsidiary of silicon wafer business, was rated as the first in the semiconductor silicon wafer industry of "China's top ten semiconductor material enterprises" for many consecutive years from 2015 to 2019. At present, the company has a complete industrial platform with strong competitiveness, and has the manufacturing capacity of silicon single crystal, silicon grinding wafer, silicon polishing wafer, silicon epitaxial wafer, power device chip and compound semiconductor RF chip.
China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) believes that according to semi's prediction, the global silicon wafer shipment is expected to reach 14 billion square inches in 2021, with a year-on-year increase of 13.9%, and will maintain strong growth in the next three years. The global silicon wafer is in short supply as a whole. Jin Ruihong, a subsidiary of Hangzhou Lion Electronics Co.Ltd(605358) , is a leading enterprise of heavily doped silicon wafer in China. It is one of the few enterprises in China with a production capacity of 6-12 inch epitaxial wafer / polished wafer.
Hangzhou Lion Electronics Co.Ltd(605358) according to investor research, the company can reach a 12 inch silicon wafer production capacity of 150000 pieces / month by the end of this year. At present, the built 12 inch silicon wafer production capacity of 20000 pieces / month has been shipped on a large scale on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also continuing to carry out customer verification. However, the company's 12 inch silicon wafer project subsidiary is still at a loss.
strong market demand and strong profitability
According to the third quarterly report, the company's operating revenue in the first three quarters was 1.753 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 69.76%; The net profit attributable to the shareholders of the listed company was 404 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 208.91%.
