Strategic layout, financial technology, endogenous + epitaxial two wheel drive

The financial industry dominated by banks is the vertical industry in which the company focuses on strategic layout. In 2021, the revenue of the company’s financial industry increased by 47.61% year-on-year, which also reflects the results of the company’s strategic layout. In the field of banking, according to the disclosure in the annual report, the company has maintained long-term and stable business cooperation with state-owned banks such as China Construction Bank Corporation(601939) , Bank Of Communications Co.Ltd(601328) , China Merchants Bank Co.Ltd(600036) , Industrial Bank Co.Ltd(601166) , Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co.Ltd(600000) and many urban and rural commercial banks.

From the perspective of development strategy, the company adopts the development mode of endogenous + epitaxial two wheel drive in the financial industry. On the one hand, through the accumulation of rich it service projects, the company has internally formed a series of bank IT solution business systems, mainly including bank management solutions such as data intelligence, regulatory compliance and risk management, bank channel solutions such as mobile banking and Internet banking, digital business solutions such as open banking, scenario finance for small and medium-sized banks and other innovative businesses.

On the other hand, with sufficient funds in hand, the company adopts the way of “running fast in small steps” to focus on foreign investment in fintech (Financial Technology) products and solution enterprises along the strategic development direction. In May 2021, the company wholly acquired rongyitong, a leading manufacturer of channel solutions, which has unique experience and mature solutions in mobile channel construction, data analysis and user experience of financial institutions.

As of December 31, 2021, the company had repurchased 114200 shares, accounting for 1.93% of the total shares, with a cumulative turnover of 132 million yuan. We believe that the company’s share repurchase plan, on the one hand, demonstrates confidence in future development; on the other hand, the repurchase of shares for subsequent equity incentives is also expected to bind the interests of core employees, so as to promote the sound development of the company.
