3、 Major risk matters
(I) risk of intensified market competition
According to the statistics, the company ranked the top 3 in terms of market share of 12% and 68% respectively, with the total market share of 12% and 8% respectively, and the total market share of Yuexin in 2027 and 2027 respectively. First of all, the cathode material enterprises with the highest market share have a relatively close market share, and there are no enterprises with absolutely leading market share. The existing cathode material enterprises have expanded their production capacity, and the market competition is becoming increasingly fierce, which affects the sales price and profit margin of cathode materials. Secondly, in recent years, the cathode material market has developed rapidly, constantly attracting new entrants to break through industry technical and capital barriers and enter the cathode material industry through direct investment, industrial transformation or mergers and acquisitions.
If the company's capacity expansion progress does not match the capacity expansion speed of the same industry and downstream battery industry, or the product reserve does not keep up with the product layout of the same industry, resulting in the loss of competitiveness of products, or the existing main service market shrinks and fails to open up new markets in time, the company will face the risk of declining market position due to intensified market competition in the future, which will have an adverse impact on the company's operation.
(II) price fluctuation risk of raw materials
The main raw materials required for the production and operation of the company include ternary precursors (mainly including nickel, cobalt and manganese), lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, cobalt tetroxide and other direct materials. The main metal raw materials related to the company's production and operation include lithium, cobalt, nickel and manganese. Affected by the changes of macroeconomic situation, changes in industry supply and demand pattern and emergencies, the prices of lithium, cobalt, nickel and other main metal raw materials have fluctuated sharply in recent years. If the market price fluctuates sharply due to the supply shortage of main raw materials or the company's procurement strategy and management system are not effectively implemented, the company may not be able to purchase the main raw materials required for production in time, which will affect the stability of the company's supply and the sharp rise of the company's raw material procurement cost, which will have an adverse impact on the company's production, operation and profitability.
(III) new technology and product development risks
At present, the company's main research and development directions include the development and basic research of low-cost ternary precursors, cathode materials for sodium ion batteries, ternary materials with large single crystal primary particles, cobalt free nickel manganese binary materials, high-voltage lithium cobalt oxide, phosphorus cathode and other materials. Due to the technology intensive nature of the cathode material industry, there is a risk of R & D failure of new technologies and corresponding new products. The above research projects of the company focus on reducing material costs and new cathode materials, and there are risks that the R & D results of new technologies and corresponding new products fail to pass customer certification, fail to meet customer needs, and relevant performance indicators fail to meet expectations. Once the research and development of new technologies and corresponding new products are less than expected, or there is a breakthrough in the core technology of the company's industry, but the company cannot grasp the relevant technology in time, it will have a certain adverse impact on the market competitiveness and profitability of the company's products.
(IV) risk of high concentration of downstream customers
The customer market concentration of the company's downstream lithium battery industry is high. According to the survey data of high tech lithium battery (GGII), in 2019, 2020 and 2021, the total market shares of the top five power battery enterprises in China were 80.29%, 82.20% and 83.40% respectively. Due to the high concentration of downstream customers and the company's adherence to the strategy of core high-quality key customers, in the past three years, the sales amount of the company to the top five customers accounted for 93.55%, 89.56% and 95.35% of the current operating revenue respectively, of which the proportion of Contemporary Amperex Technology Co.Limited(300750) sales revenue to the largest customer was 74.44%, 31.22% and 80.27% respectively, which was at a high level. The company has the risk of high concentration of downstream customers. In the future, if the main customers reduce the purchase volume of the company due to unfavorable operation or adjusting the scope of suppliers, or the loss of main customers due to fierce competition, it will have an impact on the company's sales scale, payment collection speed and gross profit margin, which will have an adverse impact on the company's operation.
(V) risks with high asset liability ratio
At the end of 2019, 2020 and 2021, the company's asset liability ratio was 59.34%, 69.93% and 57.89% respectively, at a high level. On the one hand, the high asset liability ratio makes the company face a certain debt repayment risk. On the other hand, with the continuous expansion of the company's production and operation scale and the continuous increase of capital demand, it also brings certain pressure to the company's new debt financing.
