Guoyuan view:
The penetration rate of linear driven products continued to increase, and the trend of high income growth continued
With the marginal increase of market penetration of linear driven products, the company’s own strong brand power, product power and layout advantages of diversified channels are superimposed, and the company’s revenue maintains rapid growth; However, due to the high sea freight and the rising price of raw materials, the profit side is under pressure.
