Key investment points
Baijiu week tracking: Kweichow Moutai Co.Ltd(600519) 1) the electricity supplier platform will soon take place, and marketing reform will take another step: according to the information of Shanghai securities news, the initial work of Moutai's new electricity supplier has been basically completed after six months, and the official platform is likely to go online at any time. We believe that the new self owned e-commerce platform will bring three benefits: first, the flow entrance will take Feitian as a whole: Maotai previously launched Feitian through a third-party e-commerce. This time, it is expected to recover the flow and leverage the sales of non-standard Maotai and Maotai series liquor through the attraction of Feitian Maotai. Second, cultural publicity position: in the future, cultural publicity will be more accurate and vivid to enhance the long-term brand value of Maotai. Third, consumer control is further enhanced: Maotai's consumer cultivation is at the forefront of the industry, and the e-commerce platform is expected to make the data richer and more accurate. 2) There is no need to worry too much about the decline in wholesale prices: according to today's wine price data, Feitian Maotai's whole box / bulk bottle fell by 250 / 180 yuan to 2700 / 2500 yuan respectively, and the price difference between whole box and bulk bottle further narrowed. After visiting the market, we found that in the short term, the epidemic and e-commerce platforms have mainly undermined the confidence of liquor dealers with inventory, while dealers have low inventory and sufficient profits. In the long run, the current rapid decline in wholesale prices is only the disappearance of short-term extreme demand caused by the epidemic. In fact, the trading volume of consumers is low. Therefore, it is of little significance to explore the bottom of wholesale prices. However, the important relationship between consumers still needs to be maintained. The consumer demand for Maotai will lag rather than disappear. After the epidemic is alleviated, the wholesale price is expected to pick up Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) : according to the information of China Securities News, the recommended retail price of Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) eighth generation puwu (hereinafter referred to as "puwu") has been raised from 1399 yuan per bottle to 1499 yuan. This week, the general five continued to stop the goods, and some markets strengthened the supervision of the phenomenon of goods collusion. However, affected by the epidemic, the batch price of the general five remained at 965970 yuan around the week. At present, the channel inventory is low. We expect that the rating will benefit from the recovery of demand brought by the mitigation of the epidemic in the future, and we are optimistic about the strengthening of the rating of puwu in the year Luzhou Laojiao Co.Ltd(000568) : gaoguojiao 1573's wholesale price is maintained at 920 yuan around the week, and the inventory is one month. Due to the impact of the epidemic, the wholesale price is still lower than the new cost of dealers. It is expected that the subsequent price will become the core strategy of the whole year.
Fu Jian Anjoy Foods Co.Ltd(603345) : the demand margin is better, and the epidemic situation catalyzes the outbreak of demand for rice flour products. From the demand side, according to channel research, the demand for hot pot ingredients and other products was slightly weak in January under multiple factors, and the performance margin improved and better than expected after the festival and the whole February. After entering March, the epidemic situation was repeated, the demand for rice flour products broke out, and the goods were out of stock in many places. Meanwhile, in 21q1, the base was high in January and relatively flat from February to March. We expect that the main business of 22q1 will still have double-digit growth. Mr. frozen products' prefabricated dishes maintained a rapid growth rate, especially pickled vegetables and fish, which were favored by the market and performed well. From the perspective of price increase, the price increase of the company at the end of last year was basically implemented. In the later stage, the inventory price of some single products decreased slightly with the input of some expenses, but the overall average price increase is still expected to be small single digits. From the cost side, the current price of pork and chicken is relatively low. In particular, the company's stocking cost of pork has decreased significantly compared with last year, so the pressure on meat cost has been relieved; The cost of fish pulp remains stable; The main pressure still falls on soybean protein and oil. Considering that the price increase can cover part of the cost pressure, we believe that the profitability of the company can still be improved and restored to a certain extent compared with 21q3.
Mengniu Dairy: dairy products remain stable, and the cost investment remains relatively rational. According to the channel research, Mengniu's normal temperature liquid milk is expected to have double-digit growth from January to February (thereinto, the growth of terensu is faster than the market, and the performance of Chunzhen is poor), which slowed down slightly in March. It is mainly considered that the local spring festival atmosphere is strong from January to February of the 21st year, the gift giving effect is weakened, and the base number is relatively low; The year-on-year improvement in 22 was obvious, and the strong demand for gifts brought about a rapid growth rate. Since March, it is the de inventory stage of traditional input costs (the terminal is required to remove the categories whose production date is in the previous year), so the cost input has increased slightly, but it belongs to normal seasonal changes, and the overall cost input of the industry remains relatively rational.

In 2021, affected by many adverse factors such as repeated covid-19, weak demand and community impact, the company's annual condiment revenue was 23.597 billion yuan, still with a year-on-year increase of 9.09%. The revenue in 2021q4 accelerated month on month compared with the first three quarters, mainly benefiting from the increase in channel stock driven by price increase; The gross profit margin of condiments decreased by 3.73 PCT year-on-year, mainly due to the rise of costs.

Although the rise in costs led to a year-on-year decrease in the company's comprehensive gross profit margin of 3.51 PCT to 38.66% in 2021, the decrease in expense rate eased the pressure on net profit margin, and the annual net profit margin decreased by only 1.44 PCT to 26.68% year-on-year.
