Earnings forecast, valuation and rating. We predict that the company’s operating revenue in 22-24 years will be 14 / 159 / 17.95 billion yuan. Optimistic about the steady pace of expansion of the company’s gas operation business, the accelerated release of the profitability of the equipment business, and the continuous improvement of the profitability in the future, the forecast of the net profit attributable to the parent company in 22 years was raised to 1.5 billion yuan, which was + 4.92% compared with the last forecast. In the future, with the entry of high-quality competitors in the gas and air separation equipment market, the company’s operating costs may be under upward pressure, so the forecast of the net profit attributable to the parent company in 23 years was lowered to 1.7 billion yuan, which was – 1.06% compared with the last forecast, The 24-year net profit attributable to the parent company is predicted to be 1.9 billion yuan.
