Chemical industry weekly: Linglong has reached strategic cooperation with shell, and Wanhua advanced polymer has been selected as the National Engineering R & D center

Key investment points:

This week, the prosperity index of Guohai chemical industry was 160.26, up 1.35 month on month. Comprehensively consider the operation and prosperity of chemical enterprises, and give the industry a "recommended" rating.

Investment suggestion: invest in the subject matter with expansion capacity, the subject matter of downstream industries and the subject matter of new energy materials.

The central economic work conference requires that next year's economic work should be stable and seek progress while maintaining stability, that all regions and departments should shoulder the responsibility of stabilizing the macro economy, that all parties should actively launch policies conducive to economic stability, and that the policy force should be appropriately advanced. A stable economic environment is more favorable to leading enterprises.

Looking forward to 2022, we believe that chemical industry leaders, downstream industries and new material industries are the key directions. This year, the problem of suppressing the capacity expansion of leading enterprises is expected to be gradually alleviated, the loss of profits in downstream industries due to high raw material costs will be alleviated, and the new material industry will be driven by new energy and emerging industries to usher in a good opportunity for development.

The tire industry has entered the strategic layout period. We judge that 2021q3 is the lowest point of the industry. In 2021q4 and 2022q1, the profits of the tire industry begin to improve. Based on three judgments, first, the supply shrinks and small and medium-sized tire enterprises begin to shut down. According to the data of Zhuo Chuang information, on January 6, 2022, the operating rate of Shandong semi steel tire enterprises was 60.5%, and the operating rate under normal conditions was about 70%, The operating rate of Shandong all steel tire enterprises is 51.5%, and the operating rate under normal conditions is more than 70%. Dual control and negative cash flow are two reasons, especially the net operating cash flow of some listed companies in the second quarter of 2021 has turned negative; Second, the price of sea freight has been loosened. This week, the FBX index from China to western US ports was US $14070.18/feu, down 3.73% month on month; The FBX index from China to Meidong port was USD 16613.34/feu, down 0.40% from last week; Third, in November 2021, China's monthly output of commercial vehicles was 350000, an increase of 3% month on month, the output of automobiles was 2.59 million, an increase of 11% month on month, and the output of trucks was 309000, an increase of 1% month on month. The bottom of the tire reversed. Under the background of shrinking supply and improving demand, according to Tencent News, incomplete statistics, as of November 3, 2021, 84 tire enterprises in China have announced price increases, and some enterprises even announced price increases until next year. On the whole, this round of price increases mostly ranged from 2% to 5%, with a maximum increase of 10%. We believe that the profit margin level of tires will gradually recover. In the long run, Chinese tire enterprises have outstanding cost performance advantages in the middle and low-end market, import substitution in the high-end market through channel forces, and the two major trends of internationalization and branding are irreversible. They focus on Shandong Linglong Tyre Co.Ltd(601966) , Sailun Group Co.Ltd(601058) , Qingdao Sentury Tire Co.Ltd(002984) . These three enterprises have a significant expansion of overseas production capacity in 2022, as well as rubber additive enterprises Shandong Yanggu Huatai Chemical Co.Ltd(300121) and conveyor belt enterprises Zhejiang Double Arrow Rubber Co.Ltd(002381) .

Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) has entered the rapid expansion period. We believe that the carbon peak and carbon neutralization target of the chemical industry have reached a record high of 7.6 billion yuan. According to the EIA, Wanhua Fujian Industrial Park plans to expand the MDI project to 1.6 million tons / year (Wanhua isocyanate company), the TDI project to 360000 tons / year (Wanhua Fujian), and Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) has entered the rapid expansion period. We expect that Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) 10000 tons of ternary battery materials and 60000 tons of biodegradable polyester materials are expected to be put into operation in 2022, bringing new catalysts. Under the dual carbon background, Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) MDI, as an excellent thermal insulation material, is expected to usher in the demand explosion period. Moreover, the company focuses on Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) because of its R & D and innovation ability, capacity expansion and worry free growth.

The prosperity of phosphorus chemical industry is sustainable, and the transformation of new energy is in progress. The price of phosphate rock continued to rise, from 350 yuan / ton at the end of 2020 to 627.5 yuan / ton at present, an increase of 79%; The wet process industrial monoammonium in Southwest China was adjusted from 5300 yuan / ton on September 23, 2021 to 5500 yuan / ton on January 7, 2022, and reversed upward again; The price of yellow phosphorus was adjusted back to 35000 yuan / ton, up 48.94% from 23500 yuan / ton in August 2021; Enterprises with industrial chain integration benefit. In addition, the export volume of monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate and compound fertilizer decreased significantly in August 2021, and the export was limited. As a compound fertilizer industry with squeezed terminal profits, the profits gradually improved. In the first half of 2022, both Xinyangfeng Agricultural Technology Co.Ltd(000902) and Guizhou Chanhen Chemical Corporation(002895) iron phosphate will be implemented, and the phosphorus chemical industry chain is still in the transition period from traditional chemical fertilizer industry to new energy materials. We focus on phosphorus chemical enterprises with industrial chain integration and fast transformation speed, including Xinyangfeng Agricultural Technology Co.Ltd(000902) , Guizhou Chanhen Chemical Corporation(002895) , Chengdu Wintrue Holding Co.Ltd(002539) , Yunnan Yuntianhua Co.Ltd(600096) , Hubei Xingfa Chemicals Group Co.Ltd(600141) , Shenzhen Batian Ecotypic Engineering Co.Ltd(002170) , Hubei Yihua Chemical Industry Co.Ltd(000422) , Shanghai Zhongyida Co.Ltd(600610) and other enterprises. Shanghai Zhongyida Co.Ltd(600610) merger draft has been released.

Satellite chemical phase I ethylene project is gradually put into operation. According to Xinhua news agency, China and the United States have agreed to increase the export of agricultural products and energy from the United States. Satellite chemical will be encouraged to import ethane from the United States. The continuous implementation of satellite chemical light hydrocarbon integration project deserves special attention.

The leading development of coal chemical industry has ushered in a turnaround. With the relaxation of raw material energy consumption policy, the coal chemical projects blocked in the early stage are expected to be implemented, and the growth of enterprises such as Shandong Hualu-Hengsheng Chemical Co.Ltd(600426) , Ningxia Baofeng Energy Group Co.Ltd(600989) , Luxi Chemical Group Co.Ltd(000830) is prominent. Private refining ushered in a good opportunity for development. The large-scale refining and chemical projects gradually extend downstream, and a series of new chemical material projects are expected to be implemented, focusing on Hengli Petrochemical Co.Ltd(600346) , Rongsheng Petro Chemical Co.Ltd(002493) , Jiangsu Eastern Shenghong Co.Ltd(000301) , Hengyi Petrochemical Co.Ltd(000703) , Tongkun Group Co.Ltd(601233) and other enterprises.

At the same time, pay attention to Jiangsu Yangnong Chemical Co.Ltd(600486) with the sharp rise in the price of Kungfu pyrethrin, Anhui Jinhe Industrial Co.Ltd(002597) with the continuous rise in the price of sugar substitutes, Shandong Sinocera Functional Material Co.Ltd(300285) and Valiant Co.Ltd(002643) that can still maintain the performance growth under the pressure of the rise in the price of raw materials, and Lb Group Co.Ltd(002601) expanding to new energy materials.

Chemical industry leaders are the kings of the future. According to our observation, there are a number of leading companies in China's chemical industry. Compared with international competitors, they show obvious efficiency advantages in terms of rate of return, labor efficiency and turnover. The slowdown of China's GDP growth and the control of carbon emissions in the future have led to the concentration of resources in all aspects to the leading chemical enterprises, superimposed with intelligent manufacturing, R & D and innovation, and the increase of the leading market share is accelerating. At present, we believe that China's leading companies have the ability to plan a global blueprint and move towards global leaders. We suggest that we should work with excellent enterprises and invest in those enterprises with efficient execution. This efficient ability will make the profitability of Chinese enterprises higher than that of international competitors, with higher rate of return and larger scale in the future. Therefore, the market value of foreign giants is far from the ceiling of Chinese enterprises. For example, Wanhua Chemical Group Co.Ltd(600309) , which is building an integrated industrial chain, continuously increasing R & D investment, multi category expansion and moving forward to a first-class chemical new material company with global operation, has made a synchronous breakthrough in original replacement, China and foreign countries go hand in hand, and is aiming at the top five Shandong Linglong Tyre Co.Ltd(601966) in the global tire industry in 2030, with high starting point, high standard Build Hengli Petrochemical Co.Ltd(600346) and Rongsheng Petro Chemical Co.Ltd(002493) of world-class refineries with high efficiency.
