(III) investment projects of raised funds to be changed this time
Since the second half of 2021, the feasibility of all nine raised investment projects originally planned by the company has changed significantly. The main reasons are as follows: (1) the performance in the second half of 2021 is lower than expected, and the company needs to adjust the budget planning of various businesses.
In the first half of 2021, Internet advertising and service business and Internet value-added service business declined due to the impact of macroeconomic environment and industry factors. The company did not change the raised investment projects out of the expectation of a better market environment and a rebound in performance in the second half of the year; In 2021, the actual operating revenue of the company’s Internet advertising and service business and Internet value-added service business were 6.306 billion yuan and 1.104 billion yuan respectively, and the performance was lower than expected. (2) At the beginning of 2022, the Internet industry analysis reports were released one after another. According to the latest industry situation, the company plans to adjust the capital allocation of various businesses. According to the 2021 China Internet advertising data report, excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, the growth rate of advertising revenue in the Internet industry has continued to decline in recent five years; Meanwhile, according to the data of the media think tank of the second hand system, the proportion of PC digital advertising traffic in all terminal traffic decreased from 12% in 2020 to 8% in 2021, a year-on-year decrease of 33%. (3) Since the second half of 2021, the company’s strategic upgrading has had an impact on the feasibility of raised investment projects. The company carried out strategic upgrading in the second half of 2021, released the strategic goal of building a national distributed security brain, upgraded the digital security strategy, released the first digital security framework system, and comprehensively transformed into a digital security company. Based on the above, the feasibility of the company’s originally planned raised investment projects has changed, and the company plans to re allocate funds according to the priorities of the projects.
The company plans to adjust 360 Cyberspace Security R & D center project, 360 new generation artificial intelligence innovation R & D center project and 360 big data center construction project, re plan the implementation subject, investment scale, construction cycle and construction content of the project (see “II. Specific conditions and reasons for the adjustment of some raised investment projects” in this announcement for details), and terminate the implementation of 360 intelligent search and commercialization project, 360 interactive entertainment platform project 360 traffic anti fraud platform project, 360 smart children’s ecosystem project, 360 smart IOT project and 360 new smart city project (see “III. specific conditions and reasons for termination of some raised investment projects” in this announcement for details).
The investment amount of the raised funds to be changed this time is 3911634100 yuan, including the balance of the raised funds of 3803124300 yuan, and the net amount of the interest income of the raised funds deducting bank charges is 1085098 million yuan. After this re planning, the total investment of 360 Cyberspace Security R & D center project is planned to be 2373610200 yuan, and the raised fund is planned to be 234031200 yuan; 360 new generation AI innovation R & D center project, with a total investment of 223230500 yuan and a raised fund of 178 million yuan; 360 big data center construction project, with a total investment of 2022 Zhejiang Huatie Emergency Equipment Science & Technology Co.Ltd(603300) yuan, plans to use 2022 Zhejiang Huatie Emergency Equipment Science & Technology Co.Ltd(603300) yuan of raised funds (including 629270400 yuan of raised funds actually used in the early stage). The difference between the total amount of raised funds planned to be used and the total investment is planned to be made up with its own funds.
