Under the development trend of coal mine intelligence, the company has made continuous breakthroughs in the field of intelligent equipment. From the first half of the year, the company's major coal machinery equipment manufacturing enterprises signed orders continued to increase, Xi'an Research Institute, Tiandi Wangpo, Tiandi Benniu, Shanghai Coal Science newly signed contracts exceeded 2 billion yuan. As a leading enterprise in the field of coal machinery, in the field of intelligent equipment, the "Coal Weilong" intelligent full-section combined shield tunneling equipment with a diameter of 3.66 meters has been successfully developed, and the driving speed has been increased by more than three times. it has created a new technology for driving rock roadway in domestic coal mines. The developed 10-meter super-large mining height scraper conveying equipment fills the blank of the conveying equipment in the 10-meter super-large mining height working face and provides technical support and equipment support for the sustained and stable production of coal energy in our country. The independently developed 1000kW series fracturing pump system with independent intellectual property rights has successfully completed the industrial test of gas permeability enhancement and extraction in Dongli Coal Mine, Guizhou Province. Safety in production is the first priority. Coal mine intelligence can improve production efficiency, improve safety level, and reduce labor costs, which is in line with the future development trend of coal mines in our country. As a leading enterprise in the field of coal machinery, the company will continue to benefit from the wave of intelligent transformation of coal mines.
Investment suggestion: we expect the company to achieve a return net profit of 24.39,27.57 and 3.247 billion yuan respectively from 2023 to 2025, and the corresponding PE is 7.977.77 times of 9.01.
