The net profit of Guosheng securities also increased by 162.67% year-on-year. Guosheng securities parent company Guosheng Financial Holding Inc(002670) is therefore expected to turn loss into profit in 2021. Guosheng Financial Holding Inc(002670) said, “in 2021, the company’s primary task was to stabilize its operation and prevent risks. All businesses operated stably and turned losses into profits.

In terms of changes in fair value, Guosheng securities reduced its loss from 250 million yuan in 2020 to 13.23 million yuan in 2021. At the same time, in terms of credit impairment loss, it reversed 114 million yuan, which helped its net profit increase significantly, but its revenue only increased by 10.77% year-on-year.
The sharp rise in net profit of Jianghai securities is also mainly due to the reversal of credit impairment losses. According to the announcement, the operating revenue of Jianghai securities in 2021 was 1.272 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 26%.

proprietary investment tests the profitability of securities companies
Among the 10 securities subsidiaries of listed companies that disclosed their performance (Unaudited), Anxin securities in South China was the most surprising.
Sdic Capital Co.Ltd(600061) on January 17, the unaudited financial statements of its subsidiary Anxin securities in 2021 were disclosed. Anxin securities achieved an annual operating revenue of 9.044 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 3.98%; The net profit was 3.363 billion yuan, a slight increase of 3.25%.
From the perspective of specific business, the brokerage, investment banking and investment income of Anxin securities increased in 2021, especially the income of investment banking reached 1.443 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 44.63%.
The loss of proprietary investment is likely to be the main reason for the weak performance growth of Anxin securities. According to the financial report, Anxin securities lost 576 million yuan from changes in fair value in 2021, while the gain from changes in fair value in the same period in 2020 reached 1.23 billion yuan.
Similarly, there are also losses in the self operated part of small and medium-sized securities companies. According to the announcement, the brokerage, investment banking, asset management and other business income of Donghai securities in 2021 was basically the same as that in 2020. The “income from changes in fair value” with the largest change lost 487 million yuan, while the income from changes in fair value in the same period in 2020 reached 472 million yuan.
As a result, the revenue and net profit of Donghai securities have both halved. In 2021, it achieved an operating revenue of 1.078 billion yuan and a net profit of 151 million yuan, down 48.96% and 56.86% respectively year-on-year.
In addition, the same decline in net profit of Minmetals securities is mainly due to the decline in investment income. However, different from the above two, Minmetals securities mainly reduced the income of equity investment projects by 58.03% year-on-year, and the changes in fair value changed from negative to positive, to 38.83 million yuan, but it still reduced the self operated business income by 48.3% in 2021.

According to the performance pre increase announcement, the company achieved an operating revenue of 16.705 billion yuan in 2021, an increase of 5% over the previous year, but the operating profit decreased by 1.94%; The net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 3.501 billion yuan, an increase of 50% over the previous year.
For the main reason for the expected increase in performance in the current period, Everbright Securities Company Limited(601788) explained that due to the growth of wealth management business income, institutional business income, bond underwriting and trading business income over the same period of the previous year, asset impairment losses and estimated liabilities decreased significantly compared with the previous year.
