Investment proposal and investment object
It is suggested to pay attention to the leading Shandong Weifang Rainbow Chemical Co.Ltd(301035) (301035, buy) of non patented pesticide preparations with global layout. Most Chinese pesticide enterprises focus on the production, sales and export of technical drugs, and their value or gross profit margin is low. The business model with independent registration of overseas preparations as the core is particularly scarce among local peers. In terms of growth, in recent years, the company's revenue and parent net profit CAGR have reached 20%, which is about 5% higher than the growth rate of the global agrochemical market, and the global market share is less than 2%, and the market share in its most heavily cultivated South American market is less than 4% (pesticide caliber for crops, 2019). There is a lot of growth space and momentum in the future!
Renewable plastics with low carbon emission and recyclable properties will meet the demand explosion under the background of overseas European plastic ban policy and China's 14th five year plan to encourage the same level and high value-added utilization of plastics. Recently, the EPC service provider Beijing Sanlian Hope Shin-Gosentechnical Service Co.Ltd(300384) (300384, buy), which is the leader in recycled polyester and recycled nylon technology, has successively signed 492 million yuan recycled differentiated nylon 6 and differentiated nylon 66 integration project and 262 million yuan food grade recycled RPET project contract, accounting for about 86% of the company's operating revenue in 2020. It is recommended to pay attention!
