  Description of the event

On August 28, the company disclosed its 2020 mid-year report results. 2020H1 achieved revenue of 1,424 billion yuan, down 1.78% from the previous year; Guimu's net profit loss was 57.38 million yuan, after deducting non-net profit loss of 73.42 million yuan.

Incident comments

Performance in the first half of the year was dragged down by multiple factors, and Q2 showed significant month-on-month improvements: the main reasons for 2020H1's sharp loss of performance included: 1) overseas orders fell due to the foreign epidemic; 2) ICT equipment foundries in Wuhan and Xi'an failed to start construction in a timely manner, and raw material costs rose; 3) optical module production capacity was still climbing; 4) Oclaro Japan's cost was increased by about 25 million yuan compared to January-April 2020. 5) There is a serious shortage of components, and about 20% of orders cannot be produced due to lack of materials. 6) The share of domestic businesses with lower gross margins has increased. 7) The epidemic has caused logistics prices to rise. In the second quarter alone, the company achieved revenue of 855 million yuan, an increase of 12.5% over the previous year and an increase of 50.2% over the previous quarter; Guimu's net profit was 1.6 million yuan, an increase of 60.59 million yuan over Q1, to reverse losses. The Q2 revenue of each division improved significantly month-on-month. The Q1 revenue growth rates of the PON, Wireless, JDM, and Optoelectronics divisions were -42.8%, -33.4%, -20.6%, and 426.6%, respectively, while Q2 revenue growth rates were 28.7%, which was basically flat at 7.5% and 31%, respectively. 2020Q2's gross margin was 14.88%, an improvement of 6.39 pct over the previous month.

The annual target for optical modules has been adjusted, and the medium-term performance outlook may be more optimistic: since Digitong's 200G and 400G products are still in the climbing stage, customers have delayed testing the company's new products due to laboratory closures. The revenue gap for 5G optical modules is large compared to the original target. The company lowered its annual sales target for optical module products in 2020 to 1 billion yuan. Looking ahead to the medium term, the PON division has received a number of GPON and 10GPON projects from mainstream foreign manufacturers, which is expected to bring benefits in the second half of the year and next year. The optical module production equipment purchased by the company's fund-raising project will be gradually put in place in the second half of the year, and 148 million yuan of new production equipment will be purchased. The 2020H1 company shipped about 160,000 optical modules. The production capacity of optical modules continues to climb. Q2 output increased by more than 20% compared to Q1, and the total annual production capacity of all Q4 products will reach 2.33 million units. We maintain our judgment on the high level of prosperity in the optical module industry. The company set up 70 new products last year, with a complete product line. As customer certification is promoted and production expansion is implemented, the performance potential for the next year will be further unleashed.

Profit forecast and investment advice: 2020H1's performance was suppressed by multiple factors, but all divisions showed significant improvements in Q2, with gross margin improving 6.39 pct month-on-month. The company lowered its annual sales target for optical modules. Optical module production capacity continues to climb, and the product line is complete. As customer certification is promoted and production expansion is implemented, the performance potential for the next year will be further unleashed, and the company remains optimistic about the company's mid-term growth. The company is expected to achieve net profit of $0.63, 2.12, and 364 million in 2020-2022, corresponding to 101, 30, and 17 times PE, maintaining the “buy” rating.

Risk warning

1. The overseas epidemic affects the demand for cloud service providers;

2. The expansion of production capacity fell short of expectations.
