Beer: the cost of raw materials began to fall, and the epidemic began to improve before the peak season. The recent sharp rise in aluminum prices under the influence of geopolitics has triggered concerns about the pressure on beer costs. From the cost side, the beer industry has basically completed the annual / semi annual price locking of barley, and the price locking of packaging materials such as glass bottles and aluminum cans for about 1-2 quarters. From the semi annual dimension, the sharp rise in aluminum prices will not have a great impact on the cost side in the short term. From the marginal slope, glass bottles account for a large proportion of the cost of raw materials, and the price of glass bottles has fallen to a low level. Aluminum accounts for about 10% - 15% of the cost of raw materials (depending on the canning rate of different enterprises). It is estimated that the upward pressure on the cost in 22 years will be slower than that in 21 years. From the perspective of sales volume, the impact of the epidemic in 22 years has passivated the beer consumption scene day by day. From the perspective of ton price, major beer enterprises in 21h2 announced price increases, and the price increase effect is expected to be reflected in 22q2. In the whole year of 22, we are still optimistic about the rise of gross profit margin under the smooth conduction of price increase. From the perspective of high-end, China Resources beer / Tsingtao Brewery Company Limited(600600) / Chongqing Brewery Co.Ltd(600132) / Beijing Yanjing Brewery Co.Ltd(000729) has set relatively high growth requirements for the sales volume of more than 8 yuan, and the high-end trend of beer is expected to be further strengthened in 22 years. On the whole, we believe that the beer industry is expected to continue to enjoy the price increase dividend in 22 years. The ton price of the industry will increase by about 5% - 7%, and the marginal upward slope of ton cost will slow down, which is expected to be about 3% - 4%. Before the peak season in April, we should actively look forward to the layout opportunities of the beer sector.
Condiments: watch the trend of the epidemic and the implementation of price increases, and watch for long-term recovery. Looking forward to 2022, the epidemic situation is disturbed repeatedly, the price of soybean raw materials may be difficult to fall, and the pressure of demand and cost needs to be released. However, with the de inventory of channels, the impact of superimposed community group purchase has weakened, and the industry is expected to show a weak recovery. At the current time point, the suppression of condiment fundamentals in this round of epidemic may be the main factor, including the suppression of consumption demand at the catering end and the suppression of consumption power at the residents' end. The condiment demand under the epidemic may be difficult to be substantially improved. In addition, it is necessary to continuously track the price increase landing and channel inventory. In terms of price increase, Haitian has made good progress in price increase, and the price increase time window of other brands is late. It is expected that the transmission of price system is still in progress. In terms of inventory, some companies took the initiative to remove inventory in 2021. Before the price increase, the industry inventory has tended to be benign. In the follow-up, under the influence of the price increase policy and Spring Festival stock preparation, it is normal for the inventory to rise. After the Spring Festival, the dynamic sales are expected to gradually fall back to a benign level. In the long run, the epidemic will eventually end, the negative impact does not have long-term sustainability, and it is difficult for the condiment industry to have a large impact similar to that brought by 2021h1 community group purchase. Fundamental repair is the general trend.
Dairy products: the trend of centralization continues to evolve, and the leading dairy industry continues to benefit. Recently, the infant formula industry committee of China Nutrition and health food association has approved a project and plans to discuss and develop group standards in relevant fields such as children's milk powder, which is conducive to the further standardization of children's milk powder categories. In the process of industry standardization and elimination of backward production capacity, leading enterprises continue to benefit. Yili announced this week that the offeror holds 59.17% shares of Aoyou. This offer has been closed and will not be revised or postponed. The acquisition of Aoyou will be further promoted; Mengniu announced that it plans to sell 48.66% equity of Ainiu cattle to modern animal husbandry for 187 million yuan. While expanding market share, leading enterprises continue to integrate and optimize the industrial chain and consolidate their competitive advantage through capital advantages. Due to the continuous production of new upstream production capacity and the increase of raw milk supply, although the milk price is still high, the pressure on the cost of raw milk this year is expected to be weaker than last year. In the production cost of dairy products, raw milk accounts for a relatively high proportion, and the impact of the rise in the price of packaging materials is less than that of other popular drinks. Although the epidemic has an impact on demand, it has also improved consumers' health awareness to a certain extent. Yili's business briefing from January to February also verified that the demand is still stable and optimistic about the 22-year dairy product allocation opportunity.
Snack food: the disclosure season of the annual report has arrived, focusing on the recovery of high-quality leading performance. The recent epidemic situation in many places has repeatedly affected terminal consumption, and the sector is still under pressure in the short term. However, since 21q3, companies in the leisure food sector have actively adjusted the investment of products, channels and expenses in response to the pressure of rising costs, fragmented channels and weak terminal consumption, and have achieved preliminary results. The performance disclosure period of 2021 annual report has expired, and the performance of Chacha Food Company Limited(002557) performance forecast is outstanding. It is suggested to pay attention to the performance improvement of leisure food leaders.
Frozen baking: channel diversification is the focus of this year, and cost pressure has been paid attention to for 22 years. Affected by the epidemic in the first quarter, the purchase intention of bakeries and other channels may be suppressed to a certain extent, the price of palm oil rises, and the price trend of raw materials in the later stage deserves attention, which may affect the profit performance of the company. We believe that Ligao's growth is not afraid to worry. Looking forward to 22 years, the supply side capacity will continue to fall, and the sales will gradually get rid of the capacity constraints; On the channel side, except Sam, the company will conduct diversified layout in baking and catering channels; On the product side, there is still great room for improvement in cassava and frozen cake; The price increase on the profit side can offset the pressure of rising costs.
