“This transaction dilutes the risk of immediate return
After the implementation of this restructuring, the listed company will put in high-quality phosphate rock resources. However, Tianrui mining is currently in the stage of increasing mining capacity. The beneficiation began trial operation in April 2021 and began to generate concentrate sales revenue in 2021. Due to the impairment of projects under construction, the target company had losses from January to September 2021. After the completion of this transaction, Tianrui mining’s contribution to the performance of listed companies will be significantly released after the improvement of beneficiation capacity. After the completion of this transaction, the total share capital of the listed company will expand compared with that before the issuance. Although the assets injected in this transaction will improve the company’s future sustainable profitability, it cannot be ruled out that its future profitability is less than expected. There is a risk of decline in the earnings per share of the listed company in the short term, and the company’s immediate return may be diluted, Investors are hereby reminded to pay attention to the risk that this transaction may dilute the immediate return. “
3、 Necessity and rationality of this transaction
(I) realize the optimal allocation of mining enterprise resources through M & A
In recent years, various national ministries and commissions have issued a series of policies in promoting the optimal allocation of mineral resources. In October 2009, the Ministry of land and resources issued the notice on further promoting the development and integration of mineral resources (gtzf [2009] No. 141), proposing to reasonably determine the integration subject and encourage advantageous enterprises to participate in the integration. Encourage advantageous enterprises to make full use of their advantages in capital, technology and management, use market methods, implement integration, and cultivate and expand leading mining enterprises. Encourage powerful enterprises to break through the restrictions of regional and ownership, restructure mining enterprises in various ways, realize large-scale development, further improve industrial concentration and enhance industrial competitiveness.
In March 2014, the State Council issued the opinions on further optimizing the market environment for enterprise merger and reorganization (GF [2014] No. 14), emphasizing that merger and reorganization is an effective measure for enterprises to strengthen resource integration, achieve rapid development and improve competitiveness, and an important way to resolve the spear of serious overcapacity, adjust and optimize industrial structure and improve development quality and efficiency. At the same time, it is clearly proposed to cancel the decentralization of some examination and approval items, simplify the examination and approval procedures, optimize credit and financing services, improve the fiscal and taxation, land and employee resettlement policies conducive to M & A, and vigorously support enterprises to expand and strengthen rapidly through M & A.
In July 2015, the Ministry of industry and information technology issued the guiding opinions on promoting the transformation and development of the chemical fertilizer industry (gxb yuan [2015] No. 251), encouraging and guiding the merger and reorganization of enterprises in the chemical fertilizer industry, forming an industrial system integrating upstream and downstream, establishing a large comprehensive enterprise group company integrating multiple industries, and realizing the diversified development of enterprises through market-oriented integration.
A series of documents issued by the state support resource enterprises to become bigger and stronger through M & A, eliminate backward production capacity and realize the optimal allocation of resources.
(II) it is conducive to the implementation of the company’s development strategy of integrating mineralization and continuously improve the phosphorus chemical industry chain
Phosphate rock is scarce, non renewable and rigid in demand. In terms of demand, the global population growth, the increasing demand for food and the development of biological alternative energy determine that the global demand for phosphate fertilizer is in a steady growth channel; In terms of supply, countries restrict the mining and export of phosphate rock. China has less rich and more lean phosphate rock, and the amount available for mining is decreasing day by day. China’s basic reserves and mining volume of phosphate rock are unbalanced, and the output of phosphate rock has shown a downward trend in recent years. In 2016, China issued the national mineral resources plan (2016-2020), which included 24 kinds of mineral resources such as oil and natural gas into the strategic mineral catalog, including phosphate rock. In terms of mining cost, the reduction of rich ore, low ore recovery rate, rising labor cost and energy price, and the increase of land acquisition cost and long-distance transportation distance of new mines have greatly increased the cost of phosphate rock.
The company has phosphate rock resources and advanced phosphate rock mining and processing production technology. At present, Baizhu phosphate rock in Xiangyang base has been put into formal production. The produced phosphate rock is mainly used for production, while all the phosphate rock required by Mianzhu base is purchased. At present, Tianrui mining has obtained the mining license corresponding to phosphate rock with an approved production scale of 2.5 million tons / year. The acquisition of Tianrui mining will help to improve the company’s phosphorus chemical industry chain and comply with the company’s development strategy of integrating mineralization.
(III) this transaction is conducive to ensuring the business independence of the company, reducing related party transactions and standardizing potential horizontal competition
Tianrui mining, a subsidiary of Chuanfa mining, the controlling shareholder of the company, and Sichuan longmang Phosphorus Chemical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “longmang phosphorus chemical”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, are upstream and downstream of the industry. Tianrui mining is the main supplier of phosphorus ore, the main raw material of longmang phosphorus chemical. According to the stock listing rules of Shenzhen Stock Exchange, The transaction between longmang phosphorus chemical, a subsidiary of the company, and Tianrui mining, a subsidiary of Chuanfa mining, constitutes a related party transaction.
After the completion of this transaction, the target company will be included in the scope of company consolidation, and the related party transactions between the company and the target company will be offset as internal transactions within the scope of consolidated statements. Therefore, this transaction will reduce the related party transactions between the company and the target company and ensure the independence of the company.
In the previous non-public offering, Chuanfa mining promised that if its business overlapped with the company’s business due to the business development of Chuanfa mining and its subordinate enterprises or companies, it agreed that the company would give priority to the acquisition of assets or equity involved in such business under the same conditions, so as to avoid horizontal competition with the company’s business. At present, the company’s main business is phosphorus chemical business, which belongs to the upstream and downstream relationship of the industrial chain with the target company, and there is no horizontal competition. However, if the capacity of the company’s phosphate mining and dressing business increases in the future, exceeds its own phosphorus chemical business demand, and will sell phosphate rock products, there will be a potential horizontal competition between the two parties. Therefore, the company’s acquisition of 100% equity of Tianrui mining through this transaction is conducive to the controlling shareholders to fulfill their previous commitments and standardize potential horizontal competition.
