The burden of Q1 in 22 years was reduced, which promoted the release of performance.
The supply and demand pattern of coking coal is developing well, and the price still has room to rise. Since this year, there has been no fundamental change in the supply of coking coal. The supply and demand of skeleton coal such as main coking coal and fat coal is relatively tight, and the overall inventory is at the lowest level in history and continues to go to the warehouse. With the gradual return of all links in Hebei and Shandong to normal, the steel mills have actively resumed work and production, the utilization rate of blast furnace has maintained an upward trend, and the macro stimulus and real estate expectations have improved, with full potential for future demand increment; Superimposing the current inventory at the historical absolute low in the same period, there is a strong demand for active replenishment. Under the background of limited space for China’s coking coal production, limited customs clearance of imported Mongolian coal and high coking coal prices in the international market, China’s coking coal prices want to rebound strongly. The company is the largest producer and supplier of low sulfur and high-quality main coking coal in China. The coal type is mainly high-quality main coking coal with strong bargaining power. The company’s coking coal long-term association price implements the “annual quantitative and quarterly price adjustment” mechanism. The company’s Q2 price still has room to rise, and its performance is expected to continue to grow.
Enter the coking project and broaden the industrial territory. The company plans to invest 700 million yuan to establish a joint venture with Rufeng coking (70% of the company’s shares), build a coking project with an annual output of 1.2 million tons, and support the construction of relevant chemical production and deep processing projects, so as to extend the industrial chain and expand the comprehensive strength. According to the calculation of the feasibility study report, after the project is completed and put into operation, the annual operating income and total profit of the project will be 2.696 billion yuan and 245 million yuan, with a total return on investment of 13.7% and a total investment payback period (before tax) of 7.1 years.
Stripping of auxiliary industries, light loading, cost reduction and efficiency enhancement continued to be promoted. According to the principle of “lean and efficient main business and independent development of auxiliary business”, the company plans to spin off the production auxiliary and life service institutions (including personnel and business) and related assets not directly related to the main coal business to China Pingmei Shenma Group, which will optimize, restructure and develop the auxiliary business independently. The main target is to set up auxiliary business institutions such as production and maintenance services and logistics services in various grass-roots units. At the same time, the company vigorously implements the strategy of “cost reduction and efficiency increase”. The company deploys the ten-year plan for human resources reform, actively and steadily promotes the “great job transfer of 10000 mining workers”, and strives to optimize the number of coal mine workers to less than 40000 in 5-8 years, so as to greatly improve the per capita work efficiency; By the end of 2021, the company had 65300 employees, a year-on-year decrease of 12.1% compared with 74300 at the end of 20, with remarkable results.

The company plans to pay dividends in 2021 based on the company’s total share capital of 2.32 billion shares, with a cash dividend of 0.76 yuan per share, a total of 1.76 billion yuan, with a dividend ratio of 60.2%. Based on the closing price on April 14, the dividend rate is as high as 4.4%. Based on the 60% guaranteed dividend and combined with the forecast, we expect to pay a dividend of 4.82 billion yuan in 2022, with a dividend rate of 11.1% based on the closing price on April 14.
