The year-on-year growth rate of net profit attributable to the parent company in 2021q4 is expected to decrease due to the following two factors: 1) 2020q4 has a high base; 2) In 2021, the company’s SKUs continued to increase, but the recent epidemic situation in various places repeatedly or affected the company’s delivery and express rhythm, which had a certain negative impact on the company’s delivery confirmation revenue.
The company’s follow-up focus is mainly on the continuous enrichment of product types, capacity improvement and strong follow-up service ability: 1) continuous enrichment of product types: Based on the existing FA factory automation parts standardization system, through the standardization of original non-standard products, as well as the serialization and modular innovation of existing standard products, Continuously strengthen product development and create a unique and competitive product system. At the same time, the company will deeply cultivate various application fields of automation equipment, distinguish application scenarios, conduct in-depth standardized and modular research and development, accurately match customer needs, and finally improve the design efficiency of automation equipment manufacturers, reduce procurement costs and shorten the delivery cycle. 2) Capacity improvement: with the launch of the company’s IPO project, the company’s capacity in manufacturing, warehousing, sorting, packaging and shipping will continue to be improved. 3) Strong service team: the company has established an experienced sales team with 12 sales engineer teams and 19 sales offices to quickly respond to customer needs. The company can assist customers to complete the whole process of service support from project startup, product selection to application delivery through online services, telephone hotlines, resident personnel visits and other means.
