Investment advice
I. core view
In terms of the market, it is still weak, and strong stocks such as Avic Heavy Machinery Co.Ltd(600765) , China Zhenhua (Group) Science & Technology Co.Ltd(000733) , Unigroup Guoxin Microelectronics Co.Ltd(002049) and so on have made up for the decline. This week, the decline of Avic Heavy Machinery Co.Ltd(600765) week was - 12.16%, that of China Zhenhua (Group) Science & Technology Co.Ltd(000733) week was - 8.86%, and that of Unigroup Guoxin Microelectronics Co.Ltd(002049) week was - 8.99%.
At present, there are many doubts about the military industry: the upstream price rise compresses the profits of the industry, the impact of intensified competition on the existing pattern, the reform of military pricing mechanism, the concern of tax increase, the sustainability of performance fulfillment, the possibility of downward growth, etc. in fact, it ignores a core principle and a key issue. The consequence of ignoring this core principle and this key issue is that the growth of the military industry has entered the middle and late stage, the growth has been weak and the attraction has been reduced.
A core principle is to ensure delivery with quality and quantity, and delivery with quality and quantity is "how fast and good", but whether to "how fast and save" and "save" are the focus of the market.
Our view is that large quantity, fast speed, good quality and low cost comply with the laws of the industry, but "saving" does not rely on "pressure". The first priority of the military industry is "quality and delivery". It is impossible to sacrifice the quality of military products and affect the delivery of military products just for the consideration of cost. From the perspective of the principle of quality, quantity and delivery, as well as the realization path of "exchanging quantity for price and creating profits with efficiency", we can better understand and explain various problems, and make judgments and predictions. Marketization, specialization and scale are the healthy trends of the industry. Only making a negative interpretation is a lack of deep understanding of the specific laws of the military industry in a specific period to a certain extent.
A key problem is that at present, it is only the early stage of the comprehensive expansion of military industry, and only the realization of
The beginning of the three important goals of "2027, 2035 and 2050" is only the prelude to the golden age of the military industry. 2021 is the opening year of the "14th five year plan", which breaks through the development law of loosening before and tightening after the plan in the past five years. The first year is the big year, the start is the decisive battle, and the start is the sprint. The whole industry shows a high level of demand, no time to wait, and supply is in full swing. The reform mechanism of state-owned enterprises is full of endogenous vitality, and private enterprises are fully engaged in seizing historic opportunities. These are just the beginning. Most of the historic capacity expansion of the whole industry is in the way. It is too early to doubt the sustainability and maintenance of the growth rate of the industry.
The military industry has fallen to the low point in May last year and is still lack of confidence. However, in the medium and long term, the growth is stable and is determined to be the shield of defense and the anchor of attack. Under the great changes that have not been seen in a century, the demand for weapons and equipment is unprecedented. It is an indisputable fact that the whole industry is expanding its production in full swing.
Once again, we reiterate our medium and long-term view. We tend to believe that the military industry is more likely to be a benign "advance, two retreat and one" with a bottom down. At the current time point, the valuation of the military industry has become cheap, and a large number of companies have returned to the market value of 5 billion. The valuation of core stocks corresponding to 24 and 25 years has reached about 20 times, which can and should be optimistic. Despite the current overall downturn in the market, track stocks such as the "new semi army" are still suppressed. However, once the geopolitical changes such as the situation in Russia and Ukraine, the market sentiment will pick up and the risk appetite will increase due to the control of the epidemic situation and the reduction of interest rates and reserve requirements. We believe that relying on solid fundamentals and a high degree of certainty, the military industry will still be the "vanguard" of the rebound.
The Russia Ukraine incident led to the continued evolution of the geopolitical crisis, stimulated a new round of global military spending, and accelerated the construction and delivery of China's weapons and equipment.
On March 24, the NATO summit issued a joint statement, deciding to increase aid to Ukraine, military deployment and military expenditure of Member States, which will make the military expenditure of each country reach or close to the standard of 2% of China's GDP. Germany, Belgium and other countries have announced an increase in military spending before the meeting. NATO believes that Russia's military action in Ukraine has completely changed the security situation in Europe, and the strategic adjustment that NATO needs to make is long-term and lasting.
On March 28, the US Department of Defense announced the budget requirements for fiscal year 2023. In the budget requirements for fiscal year 2023, the US federal government allocated US $813.3 billion for national defense, of which the US Department of defense accounted for us $773 billion, an increase of 4.1% over the approved budget of the US Department of defense in fiscal year 2022. Among them, nearly $56.5 billion is used for air force platforms and systems; More than $40.8 billion for maritime power; Nearly $12.6 billion was spent on the modernization of US Army and Marine Corps Combat Vehicles. In addition, more than 130.1 billion US dollars have been allocated for research and development. "This is an unprecedented high level," said US Defense Secretary Austin
On April 8, NATO agreed to provide Ukraine with more heavy weapons at its request. Russia warned that the delivery of weapons to Ukraine would have a negative impact on peace negotiations. According to the financial times on April 8, Ukrainian foreign minister kuleba asked NATO to provide aircraft, missiles, armored vehicles and heavy air defense systems at the NATO foreign ministers' meeting, and said that delaying the assistance would lead to the death of more civilians. At the meeting, NATO Secretary General szjens toltenberg said that the Allies had agreed to further strengthen their support for Ukraine in the medium and long term immediately, and called on the allies to take more actions and provide more equipment.
On April 13, the European Council announced that it would provide 500 million euros of financial assistance to the Ukrainian army through the European peace fund to support EU member states in supplying weapons and equipment to the Ukrainian army. This is the third time that the EU has recently provided military assistance to Ukraine. The first two were on February 28 and March 23 respectively, bringing the total support funds to 1.5 billion euros.
At present, the negotiations between Russia and Ukraine have made "difficult progress" and the impact of the Russian Ukrainian conflict
There is a trend towards long-term development. Countries have successively increased military spending, and the expansion of troops also shows that the impact of the Russian Ukrainian conflict is extremely far-reaching and difficult to accurately predict, and the security demands of countries have increased. We believe that only a strong military can ensure national security. In order to cope with great uncertainty, military spending around the world will show a trend of accelerating growth. At the same time, the military trade market will also grow, further raising the ceiling of the military industry and becoming the "second curve" of the military industry.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has triggered turbulence in the world situation, and the US sanctions against China have been increasing. The demand for a strong military is becoming increasingly urgent. We should "speed up the construction of a new development pattern of weapons and equipment construction, spare no effort to speed up the modernization of weapons and equipment, and promote the construction of our military's weapons and equipment to a new level at a new starting point".

IV. risk warning
① the development of the epidemic is still uncertain, resulting in the pressure on China's macro-economy and the reduction of military investment;
② after the reform, the organizational structure of military users is adjusted, resulting in changes in demand, and some orders that have been postponed or cancelled may not be restarted;
③ the progress of the reform of state-owned enterprises is less than expected, and the reform of institutions, mixed reform and asset securitization are systematic work, which is difficult to achieve overnight;
④ the R & D investment of military products is large, the cycle is long and the risk is high, and the model progress may not be as expected;
⑤ with the reform of military product pricing mechanism and the large volume of orders, the performance of relevant enterprises has been damaged after the price reduction of some military products;
⑥ the industry is highly prosperous, but if the increase is too large in a short time, there may be a mismatch between performance and valuation in a certain period of time;
⑦ the development of military trade business is greatly affected by the epidemic in the short term, and the progress of order delivery confirmation may be lower than expected.
⑧ the reduction of holdings may increase the volatility of the overall or individual stock trend of the military industry in the short term.
