The chip OEM accelerated the promotion and laid the foundation for the second take-off
Silicon wafer and cutting and processing services are the company's new business layout and the basis for the company's second take-off. With the production of Leshan 5GW project reaching capacity, the slicing business will realize operating revenue (106 million yuan) for the first time in 2021, with a slicing volume of 167 million pieces, equivalent to about 1.3gw, and a gross profit margin of 28.72%. The company recently announced the planning of Jianhu phase II 12gw project. After all projects are completed, the total slicing capacity reaches 47gw. With the ramp up of Leshan project and the production of other projects, the chip OEM business will usher in a large volume, and the gross profit margin is expected to be further improved.
Photovoltaic cutting equipment and diamond wire business continued to grow
Photovoltaic cutting equipment and diamond wire are the traditional strong businesses of the company. In 2021, the revenue was 980 million yuan and 292 million yuan respectively, with a year-on-year increase of 116.95% and 37.47% respectively.
