3. Profit Forecast and Investment Rating:
In the short term, due to the company's combined platform performance and efficiency improvements, and the increase in API prices to increase the profits of its subsidiaries such as Wichida, we expect the company's net profit to the mother in 17-19 to be 821, 9.82, and 1,139 million yuan. EPS was 0.74 yuan, 0.88 yuan, and 1.03 yuan respectively, and the corresponding PE was 20.34X, 17.01X, 14.66. In line with the progress of the company's chemical platform integration and consistency evaluation, we maintain the company's “buy” rating.
