Bluestar Adisseo Company(600299) released the annual report of 2021: the annual operating revenue was 12.869 billion yuan, yoy + 8.05%, and the net profit attributable to the parent company was 1.472 billion yuan, yoy + 8.88%.
From the revenue side, the company's revenue has achieved stable growth, mainly due to the good growth of the two businesses. ① The revenue of functional products increased by 6% year-on-year, mainly due to the increase of product prices. Among them, the promotion of liquid methionine achieved good results, and the sales increased significantly by 23%; ② The revenue of special products increased by 12% year-on-year, mainly due to the rapid growth of sales volume.
From the profit side, the operating efficiency of the company was improved. Under the condition of declining gross profit margin, the net profit achieved a growth rate slightly higher than that of revenue. Due to the sharp rise in raw material prices and energy costs, the company's comprehensive gross profit margin fell by 4 percentage points to 34%. However, at the same time, the company's continuous operation efficiency improvement plan helped the company to reduce additional recurrent costs by about 165 million yuan, partially offsetting the sharply rising freight costs, continuous investment in sales and marketing, and increased investment in R & D and innovation.
The methionine production capacity of the company continues to improve and is expected to remain in the first echelon in the world. Despite the situation of new entrants and new production capacity of original manufacturers, Bluestar Adisseo Company(600299) successfully increased the market share of methionine from 24% to 27% between 2012 and 2017, and continued to consolidate its existing market share in recent years.

It is expected that the project will form a synergistic effect with the existing Nanjing plant, reflecting a stronger advantage of economies of scale. In addition, in order to meet the growing needs of customers, the company has launched a feasibility study on the next liquid methionine production platform. We expect that the company will further expand its production capacity through continuous industrial investment and continue to maintain its leading position in the world's first echelon in the future.
