Comments:
The performance is in line with expectations, and the increase in the price of raw materials does not affect the continued enhancement of profitability. In the first three quarters, the sales of two-tablet cans of the company's main products continued the growth trend since the epidemic, the canning rate increased compared with last year, the epidemic weakened in the third quarter, offline consumption recovered somewhat, although the sales of bottled wine rebounded, but the rising trend of canning rate is irreversible. Aluminum prices have continued to rise since the second quarter, and the current price is about 30% higher than the low point in the second quarter, but it has a limited impact on the company's profitability, due to the improvement of the competition pattern over the past two years, the gradual withdrawal of production capacity, and the gradual formation of an oligopoly in the industry pattern. The company's profitability continues to strengthen, and gross profit margin is expected to increase steadily.
