According to the company's performance forecast and the financial report of the first three quarters, the main reasons for the rapid growth of the company's operating revenue and profit in 2021 are:

1) with the localization of the core components of high-precision satellite positioning and navigation, the cost of relevant equipment and system products is reduced, the downstream applications are more and more widely, the industry opportunities are increased, and the market demand is strong. In 2021, the company grasped the market opportunity in the field of geological disaster monitoring and achieved great growth; It has achieved good growth and expanded its competitive advantage in the fields of Surveying and mapping, real scene 3D and so on. In the field of unmanned application in closed and semi closed scenarios, the company closely combines unmanned technology with high-precision navigation and positioning technology, and makes good progress in the business fields of UAV, unmanned ship, agricultural machinery navigation, high-precision intelligent navigation control of construction machinery around the main line of technology integration innovation and application mode innovation.
