Key investment points
The performance of 2022q1 increased significantly and the commodity trading business continued to grow
The significant increase in 2022q1’s performance was mainly due to the growth of online commodity trading revenue. Duoduo e-commerce continued to vigorously implement active and efficient upstream and downstream strategies. The platform transaction volume increased rapidly, driving the growth of revenue and gross profit, thus realizing the growth of net profit. During the reporting period, the revenue is expected to reach 11.6-11.2 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 90.91% – 100.78%. The continuous high growth of the company’s performance mainly benefits from the development trend of industrial Internet and the company’s good business model.

Cloud factory has made steady progress and SaaS like model has created stable performance
The company’s core strategy is “platform, technology and data”. From the perspective of platform, Duoduo platform model and performance growth are developing well. In terms of technology, it is the digital cloud factory business being promoted. At present, the digitization of the company’s cloud factory mainly involves nine sectors: management digitization, quality inspection digitization, safety monitoring digitization, energy consumption digitization, logistics digitization, production digitization, order investigation digitization, equipment management digitization, personnel positioning and digital implementation of high-altitude inspection, etc. The company’s digital transformation of the cloud factory is a continuous iterative upgrading process, which will continuously increase this digital solution according to the demand. The cloud factory has obvious effects in cost reduction, efficiency increase and supply chain optimization.
The company’s cloud factory service mode is: Based on the strong cooperation stickiness, positive distribution and trust relationship between cloud factory and Duoduo platform at the transaction end and supply chain end, the company adopts the first input and then charging mode, that is, it is charged according to the effect of cost reduction and efficiency increase, and it is appropriately distributed in the production income. If the fee is charged according to the tonnage of production, a service fee of 10-20 yuan / ton will be charged. The capacity of the contracted cloud factory is generally 1 Shenzhen Fountain Corporation(000005) 00000 tons / year, that is, the technical service fee can reach 1-5 million tons / year in the future. The initial investment in the digital transformation of cloud factory is paid by the company, generally ranging from 2-5 million for each company. In 2021, 20 cloud factories have been signed, and 30-40 more are planned to be signed in 2022. When the number of cloud factories reaches a certain level, this kind of SaaS mode can create stable performance and cash flow for the company.
