Sales revenue increased steadily and performance declined in the short term. During the reporting period, the company achieved a total operating income of 2.882 billion yuan (year-on-year + 29.06%) and a net profit attributable to the parent company of 116 million yuan (year-on-year – 14.29%).

The sales expense increased rapidly or because the new brand had to invest higher advertising expenses.

Improve the product matrix and keep the brand strong. In the Chinese market, the company has its own brand matrix with “wanpy naughty” and “zeal Zhenzhi” as the core, including “HAPPY100”, “kingkitty” and other brands, and has won high product popularity in the industry with excellent product quality and after-sales service. The company’s own brand “wanpy naughty” has been rated as “Shandong famous trademark”, “most popular pet brand”, “Shandong international famous brand” and “Gold Brand Award”. In the international market, pet snack products with independent brands such as “wanpy”, “great Jack’s”, “jerkytime” and “toptrees” have been successively launched in Japan, the United States, Europe, Australia, Canada and other countries. Relying on the company’s whole industry chain and stable product quality, the company’s export business has grown steadily, and with the gradual expansion of the company’s sales scale, the brand influence has gradually appeared.

Profit forecast and investment rating have dragged down the gradual end of the epidemic. Pet consumption is expected to resume its growth trend and its profitability continues to improve. It is estimated that the net profit attributable to the parent company in 20222024 will be 153 / 2.8 / 483 million yuan and PE will be 40.35/22.06/12.8 yuan / share respectively, maintaining the “buy” rating.
