E-cigarette: the e-cigarette management measures were issued, and the annual report of fog core technology was disclosed. The measures for the administration of e-cigarettes were issued on Friday, adding 1) prohibition of flavoring e-cigarettes and 2) prohibition of exclusive operation of retail channels compared with the draft for comments. For taste restrictions, we believe that: 1) the core advantages of e-cigarette lie in its harm reduction attribute and the user stickiness brought by nicotine, which have a short-term impact on the demand of the industry, but taste restrictions help the industry return to the origin of cigarette replacement function and bring long-term benign development; 2) With the improvement of brand research and development on tobacco taste, its reduction degree, richness and sense of experience will be significantly improved, and the conversion rate of smokers and the taste blending threshold of the brand will be improved. 3) For the stock users, when there is no choice of fruit taste for traditional tobacco and other products, the harm reduction and convenience of e-cigarettes still have great advantages, and there will still be a certain customer retention rate. According to the CDC data of the United States, before and after the introduction of the taste ban, the overall sales volume of e-cigarettes in the United States decreased from 22 million per month in August 2019 to 17.1 million in May 2020, and then the monthly sales volume showed a recovery growth. During the period from August 2019 to may 2020, the proportion of menthol in the sales volume of cartridge change e-cigarettes increased from 10.7% to 61.8%, and the taste of tobacco increased from 22.8% to 37.1%; The proportion of disposable e-cigarettes in the sales of atomized e-cigarettes increased from 10.3% to 19.8%. The taste ban may have a certain impact on demand in the short term, but the trend of increasing penetration in the medium and long term will continue. On the channel side, the prohibition of exclusive operation and the inclusion of e-cigarettes into the scope of tobacco monopoly license may lead to a large number of closure of existing monopoly stores, but the supplement of traditional tobacco channels is expected to significantly increase the total number of stores, which is conducive to the continuous improvement of penetration, and the head brand is expected to continue to maintain the advantages of user number and brand. The administrative measures will be officially implemented from 5.1. There are no clear provisions on the administrative measures for taxation of e-cigarettes, and the follow-up will be further clarified. On March 11, 2022, fogcore technology announced its annual performance in 2021. In 2021, the company’s net income was RMB 8.521 billion, a year-on-year increase of + 123.1%, and the net profit of non GAAP was RMB 2.252 billion, a year-on-year increase of + 181%.
