On April 15, 2022, the company released its 2021 annual report. During the reporting period, the company achieved a revenue of RMB 11.262 billion, a year-on-year increase of 84.45%, a net profit attributable to the parent of RMB 358 million, a year-on-year increase of 89.43%, deducting a net profit not attributable to the parent of RMB 335 million, a year-on-year increase of 97.18%, and the performance slightly exceeded the expectation.
Business analysis
The revenue and net profit increased simultaneously, and the gross profit margin is expected to rise. The scissors gap of increasing revenue without increasing profit has completely disappeared since 18 years, and the growth rate of revenue and net profit increased synchronously during the reporting period. Affected by the price fluctuation of upstream raw materials and other factors, the gross profit margin of the company decreased by 2.67pp year-on-year in 21 years. We believe that with the alleviation of the shortage of raw materials and the increase in the proportion of the company's high gross profit products, the gross profit margin is expected to rise in the future. During the reporting period, the operating efficiency of the company was improved, the sales / management / R & D expense ratio decreased by 0.04pp/0.65pp/2.49pp respectively, the net profit attributable to the parent increased by 89.42% and the net interest rate increased by 0.08pp, reversing the continuous downward trend since 18 years, with sufficient initial investment and leading scale effect.
