The company’s performance is better than the market expectation. We believe that the main reason is the good prosperity of the industry and the strong operation and management ability of the company.
Good cost control during the period; Improve the management ability of accounts receivable. 1q22, the company: 1) the expense rate during the period decreased by 0.8ppt to 15.6% year-on-year, and decreased year-on-year for four consecutive years (the expense rate during 1q18 was 20.8%).

Increase investment in base construction and promote a new pattern of industrial development. 1q22, the company: 1) the net cash flow from operating activities was – 550 million yuan (the same period of last year – 310 million yuan), mainly due to the increase in cash paid for purchasing goods and receiving labor services; 2) The net cash flow from investment activities was – 1.6 billion yuan (the same period last year – 260 million yuan), mainly due to the development of structured deposit business; 3) The net cash flow from financing activities was – 30 million yuan (80 million yuan in the same period of last year). On January 13, the company completed an additional issuance and listing of 3.4 billion yuan to raise funds for the construction of South China industrial base project and basic device industrial park project. The project construction will improve the company’s production capacity, improve the company’s industrial regional layout, continue to consolidate the company’s competitiveness in the field of defense special connectors, and lay a foundation for the future industrial layout.
Investment suggestion: as the leader of China’s special connector industry, the company has been deeply engaged in the connector industry for more than 50 years. In addition to better development opportunities for defense products during the 14th Five Year Plan period, the company’s market share in new energy vehicles, communications, rail transportation and other fields may continue to expand in the future, and firmly move towards the leading development path of “world-class” connectors. We expect the net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2024 to be RMB 2.605 billion, RMB 3.459 billion and RMB 4.565 billion respectively. The current share price corresponds to PE of 33x / 25X / 19x from 2022 to 2024. Considering the leading position of the company’s connector and the high certainty of downstream demand, we give 40 times PE in 2022, EPS in 2022 is 2.29 yuan / share, and the corresponding target price is 91.77 yuan. Maintain a “recommended” rating.
Risk warning: downstream demand growth is less than expected; The production and delivery of products are not as expected.
