Analysis and judgment:

In 2021, the annual revenue increased rapidly and the gross profit margin decreased in the short term due to the high investment in software & operation service business

1. The growth of software services & operation services is in line with expectations, and the decline of gross profit margin is due to the initial high investment. In 2021, the company’s software service revenue was 2.55 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of + 35%, and the gross profit margin was 46%, a year-on-year increase of -4pct; The operating service revenue was 1.02 billion yuan, up + 23% year-on-year, and the gross profit margin was 62%, up -6pct. Both businesses benefited from the demand stimulation of the energy industry during the 14th Five Year Plan period and entered a rapid growth period. 2021 is the investment period of the company’s power sales platform project and charging pile platform business. Langxin has expanded the scale of business personnel (the total number of employees reached 6020 by 2021, year-on-year + 21%) and business investment. Therefore, the gross profit margin of both businesses has declined. We believe that this decline is the only way to increase investment in the short term, Non sustainability. In addition, the company’s revenue from intelligent terminal business in 2021 was 850 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of + 54%, mainly due to the impact of the epidemic in 2020 on the household installation of the company’s TV boxes. The revenue in 2021 was approximately the same as that in 2019 (890 million yuan).

2. The decline of the company’s net profit margin was synchronized with the decline of gross profit margin, and the rate of R & D expenses increased year-on-year. In 2021, the company’s gross profit margin was 43.43%, with a year-on-year increase of -2.44pct; The net interest rate was 18.15%, with a year-on-year increase of -2.94pct. In 2021, the company’s sales expense rate, management expense rate and R & D expense rate were 6.76%, 7.63% and 12.34% respectively, with a year-on-year increase of -0.16pct, -1.72pct and + 1.61pct respectively. The decrease in the management fee rate is due to the rapid growth of the company’s revenue, a certain scale effect, and the significant increase in R & D expenses, which is due to the investment in the growth of new business.
