(4) tips: after the “dilemma reversal” in East China, the company may benefit directly

The epidemic is just a “pause key”, and the post epidemic demand is expected to be superimposed and released. Recently, the 11th meeting of the central financial and Economic Commission mentioned that we should comprehensively strengthen infrastructure construction and build a modern infrastructure system to lay a solid foundation for building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. We continue to be optimistic about the main line of steady growth, accelerating the landing of infrastructure projects + relaxing the edge of real estate, repairing cement after the epidemic in the first half of the year + speeding up construction in the second half of the year, and the “dilemma reversal” [ Gansu Shangfeng Cement Co.Ltd(000672) ] or direct benefit in East China. Considering the impact of the epidemic in the first half of the year, we lowered the net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2023 to 2.58 billion yuan and 2.929 billion yuan. On April 26, the corresponding dynamic PE of the stock price was 6x and 5x, maintaining the “recommended” rating.
