Prospect of 2022q1 performance of basic chemical industry: high overseas energy prices, prominent cost advantages of Chinese chemical enterprises, and enhanced profitability of Q1 industry

Current investment tips:

In 2022q1, the range of overseas energy prices fluctuated after rising rapidly. China’s energy prices are mainly stable, and the cost advantage of the chemical industry is significant.

Since 2022, affected by geopolitics and supply-demand pattern, Brent oil price has increased rapidly. The average price of 2022q1 is $102.39/barrel, up 28.21% month on month. As of April 5, 2022, Brent oil price is $107.85/barrel, maintaining a range shock pattern. At present, overseas oil and gas prices remain high, while China’s energy prices are mainly stable, superimposed with the gradual recovery of downstream demand, the cost advantage of China’s chemical industry continues to expand, and the profitability of some sub industries has increased significantly. According to the profit forecast of 59 mainstream chemical companies tracked by us in 2022q1, the weighted average EPS of 2022q1 is expected to be 0.45 yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 25.8% and a month on month increase of 13.5%. The performance is in line with expectations. It is estimated that the sub industries with large month on month increase in net profit in 2022q1 are mainly potassium fertilizer, phosphorus compound fertilizer and phosphorus chemical industry, nitrogen fertilizer and coal chemical industry, viscose, chlor alkali, soda ash, pesticide, tire, etc; Spandex and fluorochemical industry fell significantly.
