3. What is the background and mode of cooperation between the company and China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) company? Can the future production capacity of the joint venture China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) Anhui company meet the needs of the company’s production expansion?
A: before 2010, the rare earth raw material market was not as orderly as it is now.
In 2011, China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) in order to speed up the pace of expanding and strengthening rare earth functional materials, improve its downstream economic aggregate and improve its industrialization development level, it is planned to increase the production capacity of 15000 tons of rare earth magnetic materials outside Baotou through joint reorganization and joint venture cooperation, and finally achieve the development goal of China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) annual output of 30000 tons of rare earth magnetic materials. In August 2011, China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) convened the board of directors, deliberated and approved the proposal on establishing Nd-Fe-B alloy company with Earth-Panda Advanced Magnetic Material Co.Ltd(688077) joint capital contribution. During this period, the company has cooperated with the subsidiaries of China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) in related businesses. In order to further seek the stable supply of rare earth raw materials, the company decided to strengthen the strategic cooperation with China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) . Through full consultation, the company and China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) jointly invested 90 million yuan to establish China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) (Anhui) permanent magnet Technology Co., Ltd. (formerly known as “Anhui Baotou Steel rare earth permanent magnet alloy manufacturing Co., Ltd.”, China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) holding 60% and the company holding 40% in November 2011, hereinafter referred to as the “joint venture”). In daily operation, the joint venture company purchases praseodymium neodymium mixed metal from China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) company
It is used for processing Nd-Fe-B quick setting thin strip alloy sheet and is mainly sold to the company and surrounding customers.
In 2021, according to the development plan of the joint venture, the two sides decided to expand the scale of cooperation. In August 2021, the company and China Northern Rare Earth (Group) High-Tech Co.Ltd(600111) jointly increased 90.36 million yuan to the joint venture in the same proportion for the construction of “8000 ton high-performance Nd-Fe-B alloy flake project” in Baotou. At present, some of them have been put into operation and brought into full play.
In the future, the joint venture will comprehensively consider the company’s capacity expansion and the market demand of surrounding customers, implement the corresponding capacity expansion plan, and provide raw material guarantee for the company to expand the production scale of neodymium iron boron products.
4. What is the proportion structure of the company’s downstream application sales? Which areas will grow faster in the future?
A: the downstream application fields of NdFeB products of the company mainly include industrial motor, automobile industry, wind power generation, high-end consumer electronics, etc. In 2021, the proportion of sales in the downstream application field of NdFeB products of the company is: industrial motor accounts for about 41%, automobile industry accounts for about 22% (including new energy vehicle drive motor accounts for about 8%), wind power generation accounts for about 8%, high-end consumer electronics accounts for about 21%, and other categories account for about 8%.
In the future, the company will continue to consolidate and strengthen its market dominant position in the field of industrial motors, and further improve the market development and business growth of the automotive industry, especially in the field of new energy vehicle drive motors. 5. What is the impact of the motor energy efficiency improvement plan (20212023) issued by the Ministry of industry and information technology and the State Administration of market supervision on the company’s orders in the field of industrial motors? What are the subdivision applications in the field of industrial motor?
A: in the context of “double carbon”, the Ministry of industry and information technology and the State Administration of Market Supervision issued the motor energy efficiency improvement plan (20212023), which proposed that “by 2023, the annual output of high-efficiency and energy-saving motors will reach 170 million KW, and the proportion of in-service high-efficiency and energy-saving motors will reach more than 20%, which will effectively support energy conservation and efficiency improvement in key industries and fields and help achieve the goal of” double carbon “.
The company’s main products are high-performance sintered NdFeB permanent magnet materials, which have the characteristics of high magnetic properties, excellent service characteristics and good stability. They are important functional materials for rare earth permanent magnet motors. In 2021, the sales of neodymium iron boron products of the company accounted for about 41% in the field of industrial motors. In the future, with the continuous growth of the demand for neodymium iron boron products in the downstream market, the sales proportion of industrial motors will gradually increase.
In the field of industrial motors, the company’s rare earth permanent magnet products are mainly used in electric tools, industrial Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) , linear motors, compressors, etc.
6. The pricing model of the company’s products? Can the price rise of rare earth raw materials in the upstream be conducted smoothly? A: the company’s product pricing model mainly refers to the cost plus model, but the specific pricing situation will comprehensively consider the influence of many factors, such as customer viscosity, product performance, product processing complexity, packaging personalized requirements, etc. For high-end customers, compared with price factors, they often consider comprehensive factors such as product performance indicators, product consistency and delivery capacity.
Rare earth metals account for a high proportion of sales costs. When rare earth prices fluctuate greatly, the company maintains timely communication with customers and adopts a dynamically balanced price management mode, forming an effective price transmission and restraint mechanism. The price rise of rare earth raw materials will be reasonably and effectively transmitted to downstream application manufacturers within a certain period of time.
7. In recent years, the head magnetic material enterprises are expanding their production capacity. In the future, the production capacity will increase rapidly. Will the competitive pressure of the industry increase accordingly?
A: at present, driven by the “double carbon” economy, the demand for high-performance sintered NdFeB magnets in high-end application fields such as new energy vehicle drive motors, wind power generation and industrial energy-saving motors is growing. At present, listed companies mainly engaged in sintered NdFeB permanent magnet materials will implement different production expansion plans according to their own market positioning and development plans. The industry competition will be more intense in the future. The company will enhance its comprehensive competitiveness and continuously enhance its market share and industry position through a number of measures, such as continuous innovation capacity-building, strengthening cost control, improving management level, strengthening new customers and new market development.
8. What are the main reasons for the substantial increase of the company’s R & D expenses in 2021?
A: in 2021, the company’s R & D investment accounted for 5.83% of its operating revenue, an increase of 1.48 percentage points year-on-year. The substantial increase in R & D expenses in 2021 is mainly due to the company’s increasing R & D investment, the increase of R & D projects in this period, the rise in the price of raw materials for R & D, and the increase in the salary of R & D personnel caused by equity incentive.
