The reform of industrial structure accelerates the integration, and the company is expected to benefit from the professional integration of the platform

In 2018, AVIC airborne Systems Co., Ltd. was established, and its subordinate 14 enterprises and institutions are entrusted by the company, including 5 key scientific research institutes.

At the end of 2021, the company's advance collection + contract liabilities reached 1.432 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of + 109186%, mainly due to the increase of host advance contracts; At the same time, the ending inventory was 6.112 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of + 28.76%, indicating that the company is in the stage of active production preparation. We believe that the company has full orders on hand, the delivery of products may be accelerated, and the company's performance is expected to enter the track of rapid growth. At the same time, relying on sufficient cash flow, the company may further improve its production and operation level, reduce financial expenses and continuously improve its profitability.

The military civilian dual track resonance has been improved, and the avionics system industry has ushered in a period of rapid development

With the accelerated promotion of domestic large aircraft projects during the 14th Five Year Plan period and China's demand for building a "strategic air force", as the main supplier of China's avionics system, the company is expected to usher in the improvement of the supporting value of single machine products, the demand of products and the penetration of product matching models at the same time. At the same time, superimposed on the back-end maintenance market brought by the increase of aviation product stock, the company may enter a rapid growth track.

Profit forecast and rating: we believe that as the main supplier of China's avionics system, the company will fully benefit from the rapid volume of new generation aviation equipment and the gradual landing of domestic large aircraft projects during the 14th Five Year Plan period in the next three years. At the same time, the potential avionics back-end maintenance market may ensure the profitability of the company in the medium and long term. Under this assumption, it is predicted that the net profit attributable to the parent company from 2022 to 2024 will be RMB 969 / 1190 / 1459 million, corresponding to PE of 38.61/31.46/25.66x. The "buy" rating will be given for the first time, corresponding to the target price range of RMB 22.5-25.0/share.

Risk tips: increased market competition risk, military business fluctuation risk, operation risk, supply chain risk, technological innovation risk, quality control risk, and the risk that the production schedule of raised investment projects is less than expected.
