The policy continues to catalyze, and the intelligent construction of coal mines has entered the fast lane. In recent years, the state has successively issued relevant policies to promote the intelligent development of coal mines. Among them, eight ministries and commissions including the national development and Reform Commission jointly issued the guiding opinions on accelerating the development of intelligent coal mines in 2020, which clearly put forward the three-stage development goal of intelligent coal mines. After 2021, relevant national ministries and commissions have successively issued documents such as guidelines for intelligent construction of coal mines, measures for intelligent acceptance of coal mines and specifications for intelligent mine construction to further deepen the industrial construction standards and strengthen the promotion at the policy level. At the same time, with the release of “kuanghong operating system” by Huawei, China’s coal mine intelligent industry has entered a new stage of high-quality integrated development.
Profit forecast and investment suggestions. It is estimated that the compound growth rate of the company’s net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2024 will reach 49.03%. Policies in the field of coal mine informatization have been intensively implemented, and the industry has ushered in an upward cycle of prosperity. With the improvement of the intelligence of the coal industry, the proportion of software investment is expected to continue to increase. As a leading manufacturer of China’s intelligent mines, the company has an obvious market share advantage, abundant orders on hand, and its performance is expected to achieve rapid growth. Give the company 42 times PE in 2022, corresponding to the target price of 56.70 yuan, and give a “buy” rating for the first time.
Risk warning: the promotion of intelligent mine policy is not as expected; The fluctuation of coal price affects the profit of enterprises; The epidemic situation repeatedly affects delivery, etc.
