GUI Haoming, chief market expert of Shenyin Wanguo Securities Research Institute, told the reporter of Economic Information Daily that recently, there have been many phenomena of listed companies repurchasing and executives increasing their holdings of shares. On the one hand, the performance of the A-share market is relatively low, and listed companies have the willingness to maintain the stock price, and some companies also hope to enhance investor confidence; On the other hand, companies with abundant cash flow repurchase when the stock price is low, which helps to improve financial data such as return on net assets.
"Enterprises can release positive information to the market through share repurchase and shareholders can increase their holdings, boost investor confidence, stabilize stock prices and safeguard investors' rights and interests. Important shareholders have confidence in the future development of the company and will also choose to increase their holdings of shares at an appropriate time." Chen Li, chief economist of Chuancai securities and director of the Research Institute, told reporters that on the other hand, enterprises choose to reward employees in the form of equity incentive. A relatively low share price can effectively reduce the impact of the implementation of the incentive plan on the company's cash flow.
Monthly operating data of listed companies
It is worth noting that the operating data recently disclosed by many companies from January to February show that the operation has been good this year. According to the incomplete statistics of the reporter of the economic information daily, as of March 12, more than 50 A-share listed companies have released the main business data from January to February this year, and most of them are industry leading enterprises.
Taking Baijiu industry as an example, in March 7th, Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) first disclosed the main business data from January 2022 to February: from January 2022 to February, the company realized total revenue of 20 billion 200 million yuan, up by 20% over the same period last year. The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was about 10.2 billion yuan, an increase of about 20% year-on-year. In addition, a number of listed liquor enterprises, including Shanxi Xinghuacun Fen Wine Factory Co.Ltd(600809) , tianyoude liquor and Jiangsu King'S Luck Brewery Joint-Stock Co.Ltd(603369) also disclosed their operating data from January to February, and their net profit increased by more than 20%.
Many high-tech enterprises also hand over monthly bright "report cards" According to the Hangzhou Lion Electronics Co.Ltd(605358) announcement, after preliminary accounting, from January to February 2022, the company achieved an operating revenue of about 458.36 million yuan, an increase of about 84% year-on-year; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies after deducting non recurring profits and losses was about 131 million yuan, with a year-on-year increase of about 253% Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation(688981) announced that it is expected to achieve an operating revenue of about $1.223 billion from January to February, a year-on-year increase of 59.1%; The net profit attributable to the parent company was about US $309 million, a year-on-year increase of 94.9%.
The photovoltaic industry also shows the situation of booming production and sales. The operating revenue of the leading enterprises increased by about 1.6 billion yuan in August, showing a year-on-year growth of about 1.3 billion yuan; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was about 3.3 billion yuan, an increase of about 650% year-on-year.
"The operating data from January to February is not the legal obligation required by the exchange, but recently, leading companies such as Maotai have successively disclosed monthly operating data, which is a good thing for investors, so that more investors can understand the operation and profitability of recent times and enhance market confidence." GUI Haoming said. However, he also suggested that at present, there are not many listed companies that publish monthly data. In the first quarter, there may still be a thunder explosion in the performance of some listed companies, which needs to be treated with caution and objectivity.
Chen Lei expects Baijiu listed companies to perform better in the first quarter, including four categories, one is raw material sector such as coal and non-ferrous metals, two is the new energy industry chain related listed companies, three is still tenacity of high-end liquor consumption, and four is the pharmaceutical bio sector. In his view, boosted by demand, enterprises in coal, non-ferrous metals and other raw materials achieved high performance in the first quarter. Baijiu industry differentiation is still continuing, but the consumption of high-end Baijiu is still resilient, and the performance of high-end liquor keeps steady growth.
