Event: on March 26, the company disclosed the annual report of 2021. In 2021, the company’s revenue was 5.474 billion yuan (+ 6.87%), the net profit attributable to the parent was 654 million yuan (+ 11.61%), the net profit not attributable to the parent was 564 million yuan (+ 22.83%), the gross profit margin was 37.34% (+ 1.04pcts), and the net profit margin was 12.67% (+ 1.30pcts).
Key investment points:
Roe has reached a new high in recent five years, and various business sectors are expected to blossom in 2022
During the reporting period, the company’s operating revenue (5.474 billion yuan, + 6.87%) maintained a stable growth, mainly due to the company’s breakthroughs in core technology construction, technology development in innovation fields and market layout. The gross profit margin (37.34%, + 1.04 PCTs) increased, which is mainly related to the certain increase in the gross profit margin of the company’s Beidou navigation, software and information business. Under this circumstance, the company’s net profit attributable to the parent company (RMB 654 million, + 11.61%) increased steadily, and the net profit not attributable to the parent company (RMB 564 million, + 22.83%) increased rapidly. The net profit margin (12.67%, + 1.30pcts) and ROE (6.35%, + 0.45pcts) both reached a new high since 2017. We believe that it is also related to the decline of the company’s asset impairment loss (RMB 67 million, – 46.66%) in the current period, especially the significant decline of goodwill impairment loss (RMB 39 million, – 59.08%).
In terms of business, during the reporting period, the company’s four major businesses include wireless communication, Beidou navigation, aerospace, software and information services. The details are as follows:
① wireless communication business is still the largest source of revenue of the company. The revenue (2.666 billion yuan, + 16.71%) has continued the stable growth of about 15% in recent three years, and the gross profit margin (46.32%, – 1.87 PCTs) has decreased slightly, but it remains at a high level;
② Beidou navigation business revenue (425 million yuan, + 5.14%) increased, and the gross profit margin (66.44%, + 6.95 PCTs) increased significantly;
③ the revenue of aerospace business (RMB 267 million, – 14.03%) declined, and the gross profit margin of this business (45.52%, – 1.04 PCTs) was still in a high position;
④ software and information service business is also one of the main revenue sources of the company. The revenue (2.043 billion yuan, – 1.00%) is basically the same as that in 2019 and 2020, and remains at about 2 billion yuan. The gross profit margin of the business (17.17%, + 1.14 PCTs) and the net profit margin of sales (9.18%, + 1.52 PCTs) of related subsidiary Hagrid Yichuang have increased, but have not yet returned to the level of 2019 before the epidemic.
To sum up, it can be seen that during the reporting period, the revenue growth of the company’s wireless communication business and Beidou navigation business was the main driving force for the stable growth of the company’s overall performance, and from the beginning of 2021 to now. For the wireless communication business, Beidou navigation and supporting business disclosed by the company, the total contract scale involving 2022 (some contracts include 2021) reached 2.413 billion yuan. At the same time, the inventory of Beidou navigation business of the company in 2021 (311 million yuan, + 44.34%) increased significantly. Combined with the company’s disclosure of a number of Beidou 3 general terminals and equipment, the effective layout in the market of special institutions was realized, and the bidding was successfully shortlisted. We judge that, The company’s wireless communication business and Beidou navigation business have full orders. The scale of business revenue above 2022 may increase rapidly, becoming an important revenue and profit growth point of the company.
It is worth noting that the business contract disclosed by the company also includes intelligent unmanned system. Combined with the company’s disclosure, the company plans to invest in the construction of unmanned information industry base in Guangzhou, take the intelligence, informatization and anti unmanned system of unmanned system as the business core, and build a land, air and space coverage system integrating R & D, intelligent manufacturing, testing and simulation training Unmanned information industry bases in many fields such as water area and professional training bases with aviation flight training ability. We expect that unmanned system business may also become a new revenue point of the company in 2022.
In addition, Chida aircraft, a subsidiary of the company engaged in aircraft parts manufacturing business, has officially started to be dismantled and listed on the gem. Chida aircraft is a high-end aviation manufacturing industry and has mastered the manufacturing technology of large aircraft parts. In 2021, the revenue reached 128 million yuan (- 6.15%), and the net sales interest rate was 33.67% (+ 9.15pcts). At present, the listing guidance work is progressing steadily. We believe that the company is expected to make further use of the capital market to quickly improve the performance flexibility of aerospace business.
To sum up, we judge that in 2022, the company’s business segments are expected to blossom at many points, laying the foundation for the stable growth of the company’s revenue scale and performance.
Increased R & D investment, covering the company’s Beidou navigation, wireless communication and other businesses
In terms of expenses, during the reporting period, under the background of the stable growth of the company’s income, the company’s three fee expense rate (8.56%, + 0.16pcts) increased slightly. Among them, the company’s financial expenses (- 41 million yuan, a decrease of 36 million yuan compared with 2020) decreased significantly, which was mainly due to the year-on-year increase in interest income, decrease in borrowing and decrease in interest expenditure due to the company’s purchase of deposit products. The company’s R & D expense rate (14.59%, + 1.08 PCTs) increased significantly, mainly due to the impact of centralized bidding of the company’s R & D projects, while the scientific research projects are basically based on prototype comparison and measurement, and the prototype development investment is large. From the company’s disclosure, we believe that the company’s main R & D investment projects cover the new Beidou 3 navigation equipment and system, various wireless communications (short wave and ultra short wave), digital trunking communication The fields of satellite communications and unmanned systems will lay a good foundation for the company’s product bidding and batch production in the next few years, which will be conducive to the sustained growth of the company’s medium and long-term performance.
In terms of cash flow, the company’s net increase in cash and cash equivalents (528 million yuan, + 195.81%) increased significantly, mainly due to the significant increase in the net cash flow from investment activities (401 million yuan, an increase of 1.345 billion yuan compared with 2020) caused by the increase in the due amount of financial products and the decrease in the scale of financial investment; Meanwhile, the company’s net cash flow from operating activities (RMB 628 million, – 56.51%) decreased significantly, mainly due to the increase in payment for goods due to business growth, increased material preparation and other reasons.
