foreign shareholder "rolling soil again"

Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) also increased R & D efforts. Last year, R & D expenses exceeded 100 million yuan, an increase of about 40% year-on-year, accounting for 6.46% of revenue.

As a business plan, this year Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) will continue to develop the semiconductor device market of new energy vehicles and fuel vehicles, provide vehicle specification level IGBT modules with full power, provide mature vehicle specification level SiC modules for high-end models, improve the product layout of auxiliary drive and vehicle power supply market, and provide customers with perfect products of auxiliary drive and vehicle power supply market; In the automotive electronic market for fuel vehicles, develop more standard power devices for fuel vehicles.

At the same time, in the field of wide band gap power semiconductor devices, the company will also continue to increase R & D investment, including increasing the R & D of SiC Power chips, launching independent vehicle specification SiC chips that meet the market demand, and carrying out the R & D of 3300v-6500v high-voltage IGBT.

Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) is also continuing to layout the silicon carbide track. Last November, Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) completed a non-public offering, raising a total of about 3.5 billion yuan at the issue price of 330 yuan / share, mainly invested in the R & D and industrialization projects of high-voltage characteristic process power chips and SiC chips.

At that time, Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) fixed increase was subscribed by more than 100 institutions. Finally, 14 domestic and foreign shareholders including Runhui investment and advanced manufacturing industry investment fund phase II were shortlisted, and the sales restriction period was 6 months.

By the end of the fourth quarter of last year, most of the shareholders who subscribed for the fixed increase had not appeared in the list of the top ten shareholders; According to people close to the company, it is mainly due to the participation of multiple accounts.

Further, a number of foreign-funded institutions that "failed" to increase their holdings last year chose to increase their holdings. Among them, Quebec savings and investment group has become the ninth largest shareholder of listed companies, and the Central Bank of Norway and Abu Dhabi Investment Bureau have become the seventh and tenth largest circulating shareholders, with shareholding ratios of 0.66%, 1.09% and 0.87% respectively; In addition, Beishang capital increased its holdings of 1.92 million shares, increasing its shareholding ratio to 11.41%.

In contrast, Guangfa growth select hybrid managed by Qiu Jingmin also lost the company's fixed increase subscription last year, but at the end of the period, the fund and another Guangfa Jufeng hybrid a managed by Qiu Jingmin chose to reduce a total of 390000 shares of Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) and the proportion of shares held at the end of the period was 1.52% and 1.14% respectively.

In terms of market performance, Starpower Semiconductor Ltd(603290) since the fixed increase was completed on November 16 last year, the company's share price has fallen by about 22% and once fell below the fixed increase issuance price in February; Then it rebounded gradually in March.
