The reserve of new projects, new products and new production capacity is sufficient, and the growth elasticity can be expected. 1) The development of new projects is smooth. In 2021, 160 fixed-point projects (involving 90 new models) were added, including 83 EPB projects, 11 wcbs projects, 9 ADAS projects, 2 electric tailgate opening and closing system (PLG) projects and 17 lightweight projects; 2) New products continue to advance. Wcbs2 is expected to be completed in 2022 0 principle prototype development and release, esc620 production, chip alternative design and production, a-spice process, environment and functional safety development, EPS / SBW system research and development, complete EMB principle prototype development, develop parking / urban condition weekly technology and obtain mass production projects, and develop closed-loop cloud data architecture and obtain mass production projects; 3) Capacity accelerated landing. It is estimated that 300000 sets / year wcbs assembly production line, 300000 sets / year esc620 assembly production line, 500000 sets / year EPB caliper assembly production line and Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co.Ltd(600000) sets / year wcbs valve body machining production line will be added in 2022. ADAS product production line based on front view camera system will also be put into operation soon.
Investment suggestion: we expect the company to achieve operating revenue of 4.7 billion yuan, 6.11 billion yuan and 7.37 billion yuan in 2022, 2023 and 2024, corresponding to net profit attributable to the parent company of 670 million yuan, 870 million yuan and 1.14 billion yuan. Calculated at today’s closing price, PE is 36.2 times, 28.0 times and 21.2 times, maintaining the “buy in” rating.
Risk tip: the progress of product development and mass production is less than expected, the rise of raw material costs is more than expected, and the recovery of automobile market demand is less than expected
