The ability of cost control is good, and the gross profit margin of Q1 stabilized and rebounded in 22 years: affected by factors such as repeated outbreaks outside China and sharp rise in raw material prices, the gross profit margin of the company decreased by 5.41pct to 17.12% year-on-year in 2021. Thanks to the good cost control ability, the company’s sales expense ratio decreased by 0.23pct to 2.31% year-on-year in 2021; The rate of administrative expenses decreased by 1.69pct to 8.05% year-on-year; The financial expense ratio decreased by 0.63pct to 2.16% year-on-year. The decline of expense rate hedged the impact of the decline of some gross profit margins. In 2021, the company’s net profit margin decreased by 2.63pct to 2.70% year-on-year. In 2022, Q1’s gross profit margin stabilized and rebounded, with a year-on-year increase of 2.79 PCT, a month on month increase of 5.70 PCT to 20.47%, and a year-on-year increase of 0.84 PCT to 4.03% in net profit margin. We expect that in the future, with the stabilization of raw material prices and the continuous introduction of the company’s high-speed communication connector products, the company’s profitability will continue to recover.
