Overseas, the company was once affected by poor shipping in 21q2-21q3 (especially the shipping schedule is affected by the port congestion of North American routes). At present, the marginal shipping situation is alleviated (the port congestion is relieved, and the freight rate is still high). In the future, the company is expected to enjoy the low base dividend of q2-q3 overseas sales. In 2022, the company will launch a new product s7maxv series overseas to attract foreign consumers through automatic dust collection and self-cleaning functions. At the same time, it will launch more cost-effective q7max + and other new products to meet the challenge of moving down the price band of foreign brands.

In the past 21 years, the net interest rate of the company’s parent company was 24.0% (- 6.0 PCTs), and the net interest rate decreased significantly, mainly due to the higher requirements for business cost investment in China and more fierce competition in overseas business.

Profit forecast, valuation and rating: the company is a leading enterprise applying lidar technology and related algorithms to intelligent sweeping Siasun Robot&Automation Co.Ltd(300024) field on a large scale.
