(II) basic information and feasibility analysis of investment projects with raised funds
1. East China base expansion and technology center construction project
(1) Project overview
The project is implemented by Jiangsu Lianying, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the company, with a total investment of 501.69 million yuan. The investment amount of the proposed raised funds is 360 million yuan, and the construction period is 2 years. The raised funds of the project will be mainly used to purchase the plant rented by Jiangsu Lianying to obtain stable production land; Build new plants and purchase supporting production equipment to improve the company’s production capacity; Build proofing and welding material verification laboratory, DOE laboratory based on customers’ future products, and purchase supporting R & D equipment to improve the company’s technical ability to serve customers in East China and surrounding areas.
(2) Necessity of project implementation
1) The need to improve the layout of East China and improve regional service capacity
East China is one of the most economically dynamic regions in China. It is also the gathering place of Shanxi Guoxin Energy Corporation Limited(600617) automobile industry in China, bringing together China’s major new forces in new energy vehicle manufacturing. Based in Shenzhen and strategically located in East China, the company has established a wholly-owned subsidiary Jiangsu Lianying in Liyang City, Jiangsu Province, and developed it into an important production, technology and customer service base of the company. At present, East China has become the company’s main sales area, and customers in East China have become an important source of revenue for the company.
With the rapid growth of business scale in East China and the continuous increase of customers in East China, higher requirements are put forward for the production and operation capacity and customer service capacity of the company’s East China base. In order to meet the needs of business development in East China, improve the customer service capacity in East China and continue to consolidate the company’s market position in East China, the company urgently needs to further improve the technology, production and operation capacity of East China base, so as to promote the continuous growth of the company’s business in East China.
Based on the company’s existing East China base, the project will further expand the production plant and build a new technology center to build a more comprehensive functional system, so as to improve the layout of East China base. The implementation of this project will help the company integrate regional resources, improve the nearby supporting service capacity, give full play to the localization advantage, improve the response speed to customer needs and customer service quality, and lay a solid foundation for the sustainable and stable development of business in East China in the future.
2) The need to improve the production capacity of complete sets of laser welding equipment and seize the development opportunities of the industry
The company is a leading service provider of complete sets of laser welding equipment and automation solutions in the industry. With excellent product performance and excellent customer service ability, the company’s equipment has been recognized by leading customers in downstream industries such as power battery, consumer electronics, automobile and hardware, optical communication and so on. Benefiting from the continuous and rapid growth of downstream market demand, the business scale of the company continues to expand. In 2021, the company achieved an operating revenue of 1.4 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 59.44%. The rapidly growing downstream demand poses great challenges to the company’s delivery capacity and capacity guarantee ability.
The company’s East China base is mainly responsible for the production of complete sets of laser welding equipment. The complete set of laser welding equipment has the characteristics of customization and non standardization. It needs to be processed, assembled and debugged on the company’s site, and the complete set of equipment supporting the laser is huge. The processing and assembly cycle on the company’s production site takes 1-4 months, occupying a large area of the production site and a long time. The company’s existing production site can no longer meet the needs of production space brought by order growth, and the production capacity can no longer meet the needs of business growth. Therefore, the company needs to expand the production site and improve the production and delivery capacity of complete sets of laser welding equipment, so as to seize the development opportunity of the industry and further improve the market share of products.
The project will further expand the production and manufacturing capacity of complete sets of laser welding automation equipment and workbench in the company’s East China base by building a new production workshop and purchasing production equipment and logistics storage equipment. The implementation of the project will help alleviate the current shortage of production and manufacturing sites of the company, improve the market supply capacity of the company’s products, meet the growing market demand of customers, ensure the healthy and sustainable development of the company, and consolidate the market position of the company in the field of laser welding equipment.
3) The need to attract and condense outstanding talents in East China and improve the level of technological development and process
Laser welding equipment industry is a technology intensive industry, covering a wide range of technology applications, involving laser optics, electronic technology, computer software development, power supply, automatic control, mechanical design and manufacturing and other disciplines. It has a high technical threshold, requires strong development and design ability, process equipment ability, high requirements for technicians, and requires continuous R & D investment of enterprises. The company is a leading enterprise in the field of laser welding equipment. Thanks to the company’s long-term R & D and technical personnel investment, the company’s R & D investment exceeded 100 million yuan for the first time in 2021, reaching 1033217 million yuan. However, with the continuous iteration of downstream customer products, customer needs are increasingly diversified, and with the continuous expansion of downstream application fields, new application processes and new processing requirements are emerging, which all put forward higher requirements for the company’s technicians. The company needs to continuously attract excellent talents to continuously improve its customer service ability.
Laser welding equipment is a non standardized product that needs to be independently designed according to customer requirements. Its performance directly affects the production quality and efficiency of downstream customers. Therefore, companies often need to conduct proofing verification before obtaining customer orders, and batch orders can be obtained only after the proofing results meet customer needs. In addition, the non standardized production characteristics require the company to carry out a large number of process verification and commissioning in the process of mass production, so as to ensure the stability of the company’s product performance and quality and enhance the competitiveness of the company’s products.
At present, the company’s technical and process personnel are mainly concentrated in Shenzhen. Although the proofing center has been established in Jiangsu Lianying, due to the weak equipment and staffing, it generally needs to be sent to Shenzhen for proofing according to the proofing needs of customers in East China. The efficiency of information feedback and communication is low, which is not conducive to providing timely services for customers in East China. After years of continuous development, the company has accumulated many high-quality customers in East China. In recent years, the proportion of customer proofing demand in East China continues to rise. In 2021, it surpassed customers in South China and became the customer group with the largest proofing demand. In order to improve the customer service ability in East China and the ability to cooperate with customers in East China to develop new processes, the company urgently needs to improve the technology and process capacity construction of East China base.
Relying on Changzhou municipal enterprise technology center and Changzhou high precision laser welding technology engineering technology research center, the project will build the company’s East China Technology Center, build DOE laboratory, proofing and welding material verification laboratory and supporting office space for technicians based on customers’ future products, attract outstanding technical and process talents in the Yangtze River Delta, and improve the technology and process development capacity of the company’s East China base, Better serve customers in East China. 4) The need to ensure the stability of the business site and reduce the business risk of the company
Business site is the carrier of production capacity of manufacturing enterprises and an important cornerstone of their stable development. When the company initially laid out the East China market, in order to seize the market demand and rapidly expand production capacity, the company carried out product production by renting factories. In the subsequent development process, relying on the innovative manufacturing base of power battery energy storage industry in Liyang high tech Industrial Development Zone, Jiangsu Province, the company continued to explore the market, explore customers, layout production capacity, and built its own production plant close to the leased plant, realizing the further expansion of business scale.
At present, the leased plant is still the main production house of Jiangsu Lianying, a subsidiary of the company. However, the leased plant may not be renewed when it expires, and the rent may rise, which is not conducive to the long-term stability of the company’s production capacity, and the competitiveness of the company’s products may be reduced due to the rise of costs. In addition, the leased plant (phase I plant) of Jiangsu Lianying is located in the middle of its own plant (phase II plant) and the plant (phase III plant) planned to be constructed this time (see the figure below for details). In order to realize the unified planning of phase I, phase II and phase III production bases, it is necessary for the company to purchase the existing phase I leased plant in Liyang to ensure the stability of production and operation and further coordinate and optimize the functional layout of each production base.
The project will purchase the existing leased plant (phase I plant) located at No. 88, Hongye Road, Liyang City. The implementation of the project will help to ensure the continuation of the original production capacity, improve the stability of the company’s production and manufacturing site and reduce the company’s operation risk; It is conducive to the unified layout and cluster management of the company’s East China production base, and give full play to the scale effect.
