Steadily promote the development strategy of “leading basic device technology and deep application of industrial equipment”

(1) the internal reform was successfully completed, and the expectation of cost reduction and efficiency increase continued to be fulfilled. The company will complete the internal management system reform in 2021 and will take the business center as the unit to carry out work in the future. Implement differentiated assessment and incentive methods in combination with the different development stages of each business center. After the reform, the flat organizational structure is more conducive to the cultivation and incubation of emerging businesses.

(2) reshape the business structure and highlight the advantages of vertical integration. In 2021, the company reorganized its business structure and divided its main business into three major businesses: general components and industry popular products, industry special aircraft and extreme manufacturing. Its business scope also expanded from industrial laser processing equipment and automation and other supporting equipment to the field of upstream key devices. The company will steadily promote the development strategy of “leading basic device technology and deep cultivation and application of industrial equipment”, continue to increase the R & D investment in basic devices and industry-specific equipment, gradually push them to the market and realize independent external sales.

(3) the successful spin off and listing of Han’s CNC, or bring demonstration effect to other product centers. Han’s CNC, the holding subsidiary of the company, has been successfully split and listed, becoming the first fruit since the reform of the company’s internal management system. The company also adjusted / implemented corresponding equity incentive measures for its subsidiaries Han’s photovoltaic and Han’s sealed test, continuously improved the internal incentive mechanism, fully demonstrated the company’s confidence in the performance evaluation objectives, and greatly mobilized the enthusiasm of other product centers.

The overall value of the leading laser equipment may be significantly underestimated. As the leader of laser equipment, the company has basically completed the product layout of industrial laser application fields such as laser marking, laser welding and laser cutting. In recent years, all businesses of the company are in the stage of sustained and rapid development. As of April 20, 2022, the overall market value of the company is 34.7 billion yuan, and the market value of Han CNC is about 22.4 billion yuan. However, the company still holds 85% equity of Han CNC, and the corresponding market value is 19 billion yuan, which means that after excluding Han CNC business, the corresponding market value of Han’S Laser Technology Industry Group Co.Ltd(002008) other businesses is only 15.7 billion yuan; According to the calculation of the corresponding net profit expectation of 1.519 billion yuan in 2022 (excluding the net profit expectation of 1.078 billion yuan in 2022), the corresponding PE of this part of business is only 10 times. Referring to the valuation of comparable companies in the same industry, the value may be significantly underestimated.

Maintain the “buy” rating. We maintain the previous profit forecast. It is estimated that the net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2024 will be 2.597 billion yuan, 3.200 billion yuan and 3.920 billion yuan respectively; According to the share price on April 20, 2022, the corresponding PE is 13, 11 and 9 times respectively. Maintain the “buy” rating.
