Risk warning: industry competition intensifies; The expansion of diamond production capacity is less than expected; Downstream demand was lower than expected.

Investment suggestion: the company is a leader in the superhard material industry and will fully benefit from the high outbreak of the diamond industry. The short-term drag on the performance of the special equipment business makes the company significantly underestimated, and the later profit is expected to be gradually repaired. We expect the net profit in 202224 to be RMB 1.172/15.27/1.899 billion respectively, with a corresponding PE value of 21 / 16 / 13 times, maintaining the “buy” rating.
