1. Risks of transformation and upgrading not reaching the expectation

In 2018, the company established and implemented the innovative development strategy of "potassium extension and chlorine transformation", continued to extend and expand to the downstream of fine chemicals around modern industries such as new fertilizers, high-end daily chemicals, food and medicine, new energy and electronic information, and shut down the production line of polyvinyl chloride resin products in November 2020 to optimize the product structure, improve the added value of chlorine products and enhance the ability of green cycle and sustainable development.

With the continuous promotion of the innovative development strategy of "potassium extension and chlorine transformation", the proportion of production and sales of high value-added new products such as wet electronic chemicals, high-end daily chemicals and food additives will gradually increase, but there are still risks that the mass production is slower than expected and the customer development cycle is too long.

2. Concentration of profit contribution sources and risk of continuous loss of chlorine products

During the reporting period, the sales revenue of the issuer's potassium hydroxide products was 597083 million yuan, 6392754 million yuan, Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) 2 million yuan and 2901682 million yuan respectively, accounting for 109.13%, 100.25%, 94.38% and 127.74% of the gross profit respectively, that is, the gross profit of the company is mainly contributed by potassium hydroxide, which is the main source of profit of the company. The sales revenue of chlorine products was 3655388 million yuan, 3861733 million yuan, 3364647 million yuan and 241044 million yuan respectively, and the gross profit margin was - 4.85%, - 0.38%, 2.95% and - 101.68% respectively. From 2018 to 2020, it was basically in the state of profit and loss balance or slight loss. After the shutdown of PVC, the loss expanded in the first half of 2021 and the gross profit margin decreased significantly. Among them, the sales revenue of PVC resin from 2018 to 2020 was 353036100 yuan, 363070600 yuan and 293745800 yuan respectively, accounting for 96.58%, 94.02% and 87.30% of the revenue of chlorine products respectively, and the gross profit margin was - 0.49%, 4.01% and 5.42% respectively. Therefore, the fluctuation of gross profit margin of PVC products is the main factor affecting the fluctuation of gross profit margin of chlorine products from 2018 to 2020. After PVC production was stopped at the end of 2020, the company's chlorine products were mainly hydrochloric acid and sodium hypochlorite. Due to the significant increase in the sales volume of ordinary hydrochloric acid with low price, but the large volume of high-grade hydrochloric acid has not yet been added, combined with the rise in the price of raw material potassium chloride and the allocation of fixed costs such as the depreciation of relevant public equipment after the shutdown of PVC, the loss amount of hydrochloric acid products increased in the first half of 2021, resulting in an increase in the overall loss range of chlorine products.

In order to optimize the product structure and improve the ability of green circulation and sustainable development, the company closed the PVC resin production line in November 2020, mainly through the process routes of hydrochloric acid, sodium hypochlorite and other chlorine products to absorb the by-product chlorine. To sum up, if the profit level of potassium hydroxide decreases significantly, and the profits of other chlorine products after PVC shutdown do not meet the expectations, resulting in continuous losses, it will have an adverse impact on the operating performance of the company.

3. Risk of supplier dependence and price fluctuation of raw materials

The main raw material of the company's products is potassium chloride, which is the main component of the cost of the company's potassium compounds and chlorinated compounds. From 2018 to 2020, the cost of potassium chloride accounted for about 35% of the issuer's main business cost. After PVC production was stopped at the end of 2020, the cost of potassium chloride accounted for more than 50% of the issuer's main business cost from January to June 2021.

Potassium chloride is a product with scarce resources. China's reserves are not high and the distribution is uneven. Domestic potassium chloride
