Generally speaking, the increase of raw materials and products in process also showed that the company actively prepared goods and organized production to cope with the rapid growth of downstream demand.
Downstream demand is booming, with full orders in hand for long-term development
The company's products can be applied to 70 aeroengine models, including the new generation of domestic military aeroengines, the Yangtze River series of domestic commercial aeroengines, the international mainstream narrow body and wide body passenger aircraft, the new generation of aeroengines and other advanced aeroengines at home and abroad. In the field of military aircraft, with the finalization and batch production of models, the improvement of quality and quantity of military aircraft and the continuous promotion of upgrading, the company's military products business is expected to continue to grow at a high rate; In the field of civil aircraft, in the long run, the global aviation field will have a good growth trend in the future. Whether in the field of narrow body passenger aircraft or wide body passenger aircraft, the aeroengine market and aviation ring forgings have broad market prospects.
The company was first listed in July 2021 and raised funds for "construction project of precision manufacturing industrial park of special alloy ring rolled forgings for aeroengine and gas turbine". The total investment of the project is 600 million yuan to build precision ring forging production line, heat treatment production line and machining production line. At present, it has entered the stage of equipment installation and commissioning, which is expected to be put into operation within the year. It is expected to enter the stage of reaching production in 2023, with a sales revenue of 1.162 billion yuan.
In general, due to the obvious market entry barriers in the aviation forging industry, the company has certain sustainability and exclusivity in the production of existing models. In the expansion of new models, the company also has the advantage of market first entry, which is reflected in the hand orders. By the end of the reporting period, the company's hand orders were 1.22 billion yuan (+ 48.78%) significantly higher than the same period of last year. In the future, with the steady improvement of the prosperity of the company's downstream fields and the gradual release of superimposed production capacity, the company's performance is expected to maintain high-speed growth.
