has been questioned by investors for many times

also downgraded outlook

According to China first finance, in December last year, a screenshot of wechat group chat came out from the market. An account manager of China Merchants Securities Co.Ltd(600999) said in the communication group that investing in Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) was risky. Since then, the account manager has clarified within the group.

In this regard, Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) said on the interactive platform that the company recently noticed that China Merchants Securities Co.Ltd(600999) staff member Yang made false statements related to the company in the stock exchange group. The production, operation and liquidity of the company are normal, and there is no major information that should be disclosed but not disclosed. The company strongly condemns such acts and reserves the right to investigate the legal responsibility of the parties.

Earlier, in the first quarter of last year, the network big V "chivalrous shadow of heaven and earth" published "is the original animal husbandry thunder?" One article, questioning a number of financial data of Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) has also triggered heated discussions in the market.

According to the cover news, a few days later, Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) replied on 33 pages, giving a more detailed response to the significantly higher gross profit margin than peers, the low roe of minority shareholders, the necessity of related party transactions with controlling shareholders, and the heavy asset model.

Despite the financial problems, on December 2 last year, muyuan fell into the event of "continuous overdue business tickets of 31 companies". In the list of commercial bills continuously overdue as of November 30, 2021 disclosed by Shanghai Stock Exchange, the commercial bills accepted by 31 companies directly or indirectly controlled by Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) continued to be overdue, with a cumulative overdue amount of about 212573 million yuan and an overdue balance of 166688 million yuan.

Afterwards, Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) although it gave an explanation for failing to prompt payment in time or incorrect operation, it still failed to calm public opinion.

On December 15 last year, according to Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) disclosure, China integrity International released the rating announcement "announcement on adjusting Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) rating outlook to negative", which said that the rating outlook of Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) was adjusted from stable to negative. The main reason for the Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) rating downgraded by China integrity international is that the price of pigs has remained low since 2021, and the rebound range of prices in the short term is limited; The company suffered an operating loss in the third quarter of 2021, and its profitability and cash earning ability were weakened; In the past two years, the company's investment scale is large and its debt continues to rise; The company's recent business ticket overdue events and other factors.

In this regard, Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) responded that "due to the downward cycle, the financial indicators of the pig breeding industry have generally deteriorated, and the rating has been downgraded and concerned by rating agencies. The main reason for the downgrade of muyuan's rating outlook this time is also the industry cycle factor, and the fact that the rating has not been downgraded indicates that Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) financial fundamentals have not deteriorated."

Loss in the first quarter RMB 23456 million

securities companies: cost control remains at the leading level in the industry

Previously, Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) released the first quarterly report. In the first quarter of 2022, the company achieved an operating revenue of 18.278 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 9.3%; The net loss in the first quarter was 5.18 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 174.40%.

In addition, the financial report showed that other receivables decreased by 39.50% at the end of the period compared with the beginning of the period, mainly due to the decrease of margin receivable in the current period. Operating costs increased by 106.19% over the same period last year, mainly due to the increase in sales in the current period. Contract liabilities at the end of the period increased by 80.26% compared with the beginning of the period, mainly due to the increase of advance payment in the current period.

According to Orient Securities Company Limited(600958) Research Report, we estimate that the full cost of commercial pig breeding in the first quarter of 2022 is about 16 yuan / kg, a slight increase over the fourth quarter of last year, still maintains the leading level in the industry . The increase in cost is mainly due to the continuous rise in the price of feed raw materials since 2021, which is reflected in the batch released in the first quarter; The seasonal high incidence of pig epidemic disease in winter has an impact on the breeding results of the slaughter batch from January to February; There are Spring Festival holidays from January to February, with few effective sales days and low sales volume, and the cost sharing per unit period increases. The company proposed to achieve the phased cost target of 13 yuan / kg by the end of 2022. We believe that if the annual raw material price remains at the current high level, the company's cost target may be moved up by about 1 yuan / kg.
