Event: on March 18, the company released its annual report for 2021. The company achieved an operating revenue of 3.206 billion (+ 23.75%), a net profit attributable to the parent company of 310 million (- 27.24%), and a gross profit margin of 26.32%.

In 2021, revenue continued to grow and profitability was under pressure. In 2021, the company achieved a year-on-year increase in revenue and a year-on-year decrease of about 27%, of which Q4 achieved an operating revenue of 854 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of about 1%, and a single quarter net profit of 35 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of about 80%. The company’s revenue growth slowed down in the fourth quarter, and the main reasons for the pressure on profitability include: 1) the downstream demand was affected due to the shortage of chip supply; 2) The price of raw materials rose, and the price of aluminum rose by more than 30% in 2021, resulting in the growth rate of the company’s operating cost greater than that of revenue; 3) Rising international sea freight; 4) The appreciation of RMB has led to an increase of more than 100 million yuan in the company’s financial expenses compared with 2020.

The proportion of new energy continues to increase, and the profit inflection point in 2022 is expected. In 2021, the contribution revenue of the company’s new energy vehicle products increased by 180% year-on-year, and the proportion in the company’s revenue increased significantly.

In 2021, the company’s top three customers were Valeo, Bosch and Magna, accounting for about 34% of the company’s revenue. The top five customers contributed 1.46 billion yuan, accounting for about 45.5% of the company’s revenue. In 2022, with the partial transmission of the cost side pressure brought by raw materials and freight, and the gradual easing of the shortage of chip supply, the turning point of the company’s profitability is expected, and the gross profit margin is expected to improve gradually.
