Risk tip: the uncertainty of overseas epidemic affects the progress of the company’s auto glass business and Sam integration.

Investment suggestion: lower the profit forecast and maintain the “maintain” rating.

In the short term, the company’s performance is expected to maintain a growth rate of more than 20% in 2022 under the background of glass upgrading, mitigation of shipping and chips and improvement of market share; In the long-term dimension, as the global leader in automotive glass, the company is expected to 1) increase the consumption (area) of single car glass from 4 square meters to 6 square meters under the general trend of intelligence; 2) The value of a single square meter (coating, heat insulation, edging, HUD, dimming, 5g communication, etc.) increased from 600 yuan to more than 2000 yuan. Follow up automotive glass and network to open new horizons, industry ASP upgrade is expected to accelerate. Considering the uncertainty of the epidemic situation, the impact of core shortage on production scheduling, exchange gains and losses, raw materials and shipping costs, the profit forecast is lowered. The profit forecast for 22-24 years is expected to be 4.8/57/7.1 billion respectively (the previous profit forecast was 5.0/60/7.3 billion), and the corresponding PE is 21 / 17 / 14x respectively, maintaining the overweight rating.

In conclusion, the company’s revenue grew steadily in 2021, and multiple factors such as Sam loss, rising raw material cost (- 110 million), exchange loss (- 530 million) and shipping cost (- 230 million) dragged down the company’s net profit performance in 2021.

Affected by the rise of sea freight and soda ash price, considering the comparable caliber adjusted by accounting standards, the company’s gross profit margin in 2021 was -0.6pct year-on-year. During the reporting period, the company changed the relevant transportation costs from the expenses originally included in the current period to amortized to the operating costs on the same basis as the recognition of goods or services revenue according to the implementation questions and answers of the Ministry of Finance on the accounting standards for business enterprises in November 2021; The daily repair expenses of fixed assets related to the production and processing of inventories are changed from the expenses originally included in the current period to be treated according to the principle of determining the cost of inventories. At the same time, the company made retroactive adjustments for 2019 and 2020. After the change of the above accounting policies, the gross profit margin in 2021 was 35.9%, compared with 36.5% in the same period of last year, with a year-on-year decrease of 0.6pct, mainly due to the rise in the price of sea freight and soda ash. Among them, the year-on-year increase in sea freight was RMB 231 million, which affected the year-on-year decrease of 0.98pct; The price of soda ash increased by 107 million yuan year-on-year, affecting the gross profit margin by 0.45 PCT. Due to the change of accounting standards, some management and sales expenses are moved to the cost side in Q4, and the caliber is not comparable. Here, the caliber of gross profit rate sales rate management rate is used. The caliber of single Q4 gross profit rate sales expense rate management expense rate is 20.85% (Q1 / Q2 / Q3 are 24.43% / 23.86% / 22.24% respectively).

On the whole, the cost has decreased steadily in 2021. Considering that the apparent data of expense rate is not comparable due to the change of accounting policy, we hereby adjust the sales expense rate and management expense rate in 2020 in accordance with the provisions of the new accounting policy. Under comparable standards, the company’s four-year rate in 2021 was 20.25%, with a year-on-year increase of -1.16pct, of which the rate of sales / management / Finance / R & D expenses was 4.88/8.24/2.91/4.22% respectively, with a year-on-year change of -0.40 / – 1.31 / + 0.43 / + 0.13pct. Affected by the increase of exchange loss plus the decrease of interest income, the financial expense rate of the company increased in 2021.
