The feed industry is the main downstream application field of valine products. Under the influence of the "prohibition order" and "reduction and substitution of corn soybean meal", with the continuous growth of the overall market scale of the feed industry in the future, the consumption of valine in livestock feed will be further expanded, and the landing of the company's new production capacity is expected to usher in a rapid volume.

Steady progress has been made in projects under construction, strengthening R & D and talent and technology reserves, and deepening industrial layout. In terms of construction in progress, it was announced that the remaining part of the company's raised investment project, the three branched chain amino acid and its derivatives project of Bayannur base and the beta alanine derivatives project of Changfeng base were steadily promoted, and the new amount in the future can be expected. In terms of R & D, according to the announcement, the company spent 53 million yuan on R & D in 21 years, a year-on-year increase of + 75%. For the traditional chemical industry, synthetic biology technology produces chemicals through customized cell factories, which is of subversive significance in terms of resource sustainability, energy consumption, environmental protection and production efficiency. In addition to high-intensity R & D investment, on the one hand, the company, Cooperate with the Chinese Academy of engineering to build Huaheng green biological manufacturing academician workstation to reserve technology and talents for industrial development. On the other hand, the company has established a research institute and actively introduced overseas high-end talents to improve the industrialization path of the combination of strain construction, small and medium-sized pilot scale-up and factory scale production. At present, the company has realized fermentation production β- For the industrialization of arbutin technology, in the future, it is proposed to establish a subsidiary, Huaheng flavor, Lihe biological terpene products (such as sandalwood, rose essential oil, etc.) and bio based products (such as 1,3-propylene glycol), so as to deepen the industrial layout and enhance the comprehensive competitiveness of products.

Investment suggestion: we expect the net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2024 to be 242 million yuan, 365 million yuan and 464 million yuan respectively, maintaining the overweight-a investment rating.
