We judged that the performance continued to grow at a high speed and met market expectations due to the implementation of large order business signed in November 2021. As the world's leading cdmo supplier of API, the company is expected to continue to show ultra-high growth under the catalysis of continuous landing of large orders and development of long tail customers.
(1) the overall operating revenue is in line with expectations, and the large order business will continue to contribute performance flexibility to 2022: in 2021, the small molecule cdmo business achieved an operating revenue of 4.238 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 45.63%, including 1.23 billion yuan for large orders and 3.01 billion yuan for conventional business, with a year-on-year increase of 3%.

According to the data of the company's 2021 annual report, 1.23 billion yuan of revenue is recognized in 2021. We judge that most of the remaining 8.11 billion yuan will be recognized in 2022, contributing elasticity to the company's performance growth in 2022.
(2) long tail customers (overseas small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises and Chinese customers) continued to contribute performance growth elasticity: in 2021, overseas small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises and Chinese business increased by 50.99% and 64.44% respectively year-on-year, and continued to contribute performance elasticity to the company. In 2021, the revenue of overseas small and medium-sized pharmaceutical enterprises and Chinese customers accounted for nearly 30%. Looking forward to the future, the company will continue to expand the breadth and depth of customers, and this part of customer business is expected to continue to show rapid growth.

From the supply side, it continues to accelerate the release, laying the foundation for future performance growth
According to the 2021 annual report data, the company's orders on hand reached US $1.898 billion, a year-on-year increase of 320%. In addition, considering that the company's phase III and commercial pipelines are in rapid growth, in order to meet the incremental demand, the company will accelerate the release of production capacity and accelerate employee recruitment in 2021, so as to improve the supply side production capacity and lay a foundation for future performance growth.
(1) the capacity continues to be released at a high speed: the overall volume of small molecule reactor of the company at the end of 2021 is 4700 cubic meters (Note: the data at the end of March 2022 is 5000 cubic meters), with a year-on-year increase of 68%. In addition, according to the data of annual report of 2021, the company will successively put into operation 2000 cubic meters of capacity in Dunhua, Tianjin and Zhenjiang in 2022, with a year-on-year increase of 43%. The accelerated release of the company's production capacity can meet the needs of key customers on the one hand and lay the foundation for the demand of incremental orders in the future on the other hand.
