Relying on the industrial layout of new glass materials, the company has comprehensively promoted “quality and efficiency improvement, transformation and upgrading”, and its profitability has been improved. The decline of 21q4 performance is mainly due to the provision for asset impairment of 140 million yuan at the end of the year, yoy + 178.81%, including bad debt provision of 30 million yuan and inventory falling price provision of 110 million yuan. The one-time impairment does not affect the basic good orientation of the company.

In 2021, the company’s new materials business achieved a revenue of 1.177 billion yuan, yoy + 48.75%, and the gross profit margin was 22.29%, with a year-on-year increase of 4.95pct; Product sales reached 46500 tons, yoy + 7.02%; ASP is 25300 yuan / ton, yoy + 39.00%.

Folding screen mobile phones have entered the fast lane of development, and UTG cover sector is the general trend. Since the launch of the world’s first folding screen mobile phone flexpai in 2018, Samsung, Huawei, Motorola, Xiaomi, oppo and glory have successively launched folding screen products, and vivo and Apple also have corresponding layouts. Since 2021, major brands have successively launched products below 10000 yuan, including Xiaomi mixfold, 2 Samsung Galaxy zflip35g, Huawei p50pocket, oppofindn and glory magicv. With the maturity of technology and the improvement of supply chain, the price of folding screen mobile phones is expected to continue to decline and the penetration rate will be further improved. According to the calculation of DSCC, the global shipment of folding screen mobile phones will reach 44 million in 2025, with a corresponding sales volume of 105.3 billion US dollars; Airy consulting predicts that the shipment volume of China’s market will be 1.38 million in 2025, and the CAGR will reach 69% in four years. Cover material is an important upgrading direction of folding screen, and the current mainstream schemes are CPI and UTG. UTG is superior to CPI in hardness, light transmittance, scratch resistance, flatness, thickness and high temperature resistance, but it is technically difficult, low yield and high cost. At present, it is only used by Samsung and oppo. With the breakthrough of UTG technical difficulties, the improvement of yield and the decrease of cost, and the increase of suppliers with mass production capacity, the penetration rate of UTG is expected to increase continuously. Cinno predicts that the carrying capacity of UTG in China will be about 5 million in 2025, and the CAGR will reach 77% in four years.

The advantages of vertical integration are clear, and the volume of UTG products can be expected. The company has the only national UTG production process technology of “high strength glass – thinning – high-precision post-processing” in China, which can effectively control costs and ensure quality consistency. Self research 30 μ Mutg products can be bent for 400000 times continuously, and their performance and yield have reached the global leading level. It has been verified by customers, and is expected to fully benefit from the rapid expansion of folding screen UTG market. The company’s UTG phase I production line was completed and put into operation in July 2021, forming a production capacity of 2 million pieces / year and phase II production capacity of 15 million pieces / year. It is expected to be put into operation by the end of 2022. In 2021, the company and Huawei jointly issued the invention patent of “a processing method to improve the bending performance of flexible glass”.

Investment suggestion: we estimate that the company’s operating revenue from 2022 to 2024 will be 7.218 billion yuan, 9.168 billion yuan and 10.88 billion yuan respectively, and the net profit attributable to the parent company will be 249 million yuan, 357 million yuan and 481 million yuan respectively. It will be covered for the first time and given a “Buy-A” investment rating.

Risk warning: macroeconomic operation is not as expected; Downstream demand is lower than expected; The demand for folding screen mobile phones is less than expected; The progress of capacity expansion is less than expected; Technical iteration risk; Exchange rate fluctuation risk.
