rapid capacity expansion
According to the report of prismark in the fourth quarter of 2021 quoted in Shennan Circuits Co.Ltd(002916) 2021 annual report, the output value of global PCB industry denominated in US dollars increased by 23.4% year-on-year in 2021 due to the rise of commodity prices, the depreciation of US dollars and the increase of terminal demand.
Prismark predicts that in the medium and long term, the industry will maintain a stable growth trend. From 2021 to 2026, the global PCB output value is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8%. From a regional perspective, the PCB industry in all regions of the world shows a sustained growth trend. Among them, when the base number of the mainland is high in 2021, the compound growth rate will still reach 4.6%, and the growth will remain stable. From the perspective of product structure, packaging substrate, 8-16 layer high-rise multi-layer board and HDI board will still maintain a relatively high growth rate, and the compound growth rate in the next five years will be 8.6%, 4.4% and 4.9% respectively.
“In the face of the rapid development of the industry, in addition to keeping up with the market trend in technology research and development, the company also actively expands production capacity, so as to grasp the development opportunities of the industry and continuously increase the driving force for the development of the company.” Avary Holding (Shenzhen) Co.Limited(002938) means.
