Risk analysis.
1) Industry competition intensifies: traditional kitchen and bathroom brands such as boss, Fangtai and Huadi have successively entered the integrated cooker industry and stepped up the layout of offline channels and products, and the trend of price competition has emerged in subdivided products. with the continuous layout of the brand sinking market and high-end products, price competition may be further intensified.
2) Raw material prices rebounded: raw materials are the main composition and cost source of integrated cooker products, raw material prices affect the profitability and performance of integrated cooker plate, the current raw material prices are low, but the average gross profit margin of the industry is difficult to improve. With the reversal of raw material prices, the profitability of the integrated cooker industry may further decline.
3) fluctuations in the real estate industry: integrated stove sales are mainly concentrated in third-and fourth-tier cities, offline distribution channels, and mainly from new house decoration, the current residential sales growth rate is in a downward range, integrated stove sales may continue to be under pressure.
