The 21-year net profit of returning to the mother increased by 119.4% compared with the same period last year. The company released its annual report on March 27 and achieved revenue of 6.78 billion yuan (yoy+76.7%) in 21 years. The net profit of returning to the mother was 138 million yuan (yoy+119.4%), which was consistent with the 1.2-150 million yuan of the previous performance KuaiBao (2022-02). 21Q4 realized revenue of 1.92 billion yuan (yoy+55.1%, qoq+8.4%) and net profit of 30 million yuan (yoy+150.0%, qoq-36.2%). Considering the company's capacity expansion, we raise our performance forecast for 22-23 years. It is estimated that the EPS for 22-24 years will be 0.74 + 0.90 + 1.31 yuan (0.51 + 0.60), and the average PE (2022E) of the comparable company will be 20.0X. Considering the long construction period of the proposed project, there is still some uncertainty. We will give the company 18.0 times PE for 22 years, corresponding to the target price of 13.32 yuan (previous value 9.69 yuan). Maintain the "overweight" rating.

According to the company's annual report, the company's revenue of copper plate and strip products reached 6.75 billion yuan (yoy+77.3%) in 2021, mainly due to the rise in copper prices and the full production of the company's fund-raising projects, resulting in a large increase in production and sales volume. In 2021, the company's copper strip product sales volume was 109900 tons (yoy+33.3%). In 2021, the company's copper strip business gross profit margin 4.39% (yoy+0.05pct), the company adopts the "raw material price + processing fee" pricing model, profitability is relatively stable, not affected by the sharp rise in copper prices.

Due to the effect of economies of scale, the rate of expenses during the period of the company declined, and the rate of sales, management, finance, and R & D expenses of the company was year-on-year + 0.39pct21 year-on-year-0.07pct,-0.15pct, + 0.06pct,-0.12pct to 0.21%, 0.43%, 0.33% and 0.84%, respectively. Affected by the effect of economies of scale, the expense rate of the company declined during the period, in which the increase in financial expenses was mainly due to the increase in bank borrowing needed for the production and operation of the company, resulting in an increase in interest expenditure. In 21 years, the company's gross sales margin was 4.51% (yoy+0.11pct), net sales margin was 2.03% (yoy+0.39pct), and profitability was improved. In 2021, the company's asset-liability ratio was 44.5% (yoy+11.9%), which showed an upward trend.

It is proposed to increase the sources of supplementary funds and continue to expand production capacity.

The company's existing production line has basically reached a state of full production and sale. according to the company announcement (2022-009), the company intends to raise 7.50 yuan, which is mainly used in the "annual production line project of 100000 tons of high-precision copper alloy strip and 50,000 tons of copper strip billet" (project 1). And the "annual output of 50,000 tons of battery foil project" (project 2), the above projects are divided into two phases of construction, the total construction period is 36 months and 24 months respectively. Project 2 has not yet signed a formal agreement. As the expansion project continues, the company's competitiveness is expected to continue to enhance.

Seize the development opportunities of the new energy industry and maintain the rating of "increasing holdings"

Centering on the development trend of new energy, the company's capacity expansion is paralleled with product structure optimization. We estimate that the EPS for 22-24 is 0.740.90 EPS 1.31 yuan, and the average PE (2022E) of the comparable company is 20.0X. Considering the long construction period of the company's proposed project, there is still some uncertainty, giving the company 18.0 times PE for 22 years, corresponding to the target price of 13.32 yuan, maintaining the "overweight" rating.

Risk hint: copper strip and foil demand and product yield are not as expected, and the competition pattern of the industry is deteriorating.
