In October, the company announced that it had signed 590 million orders (23H1 won the bid). The accelerated release of on-hand and newly signed orders is expected to lead to the growth of the company's performance. Taking into account the impairment and the increase in expense rate, the company's 23-25 year return net profit forecast is 4.5 CAGR+23.6%, which is comparable to the company's 23-year Wind consensus expected average 0.76xPEG. We believe that the company's rail transit design industry has higher barriers and better pattern. And the stock transformation is expected to bring new growth space, but considering the company's short-term cash flow pressure, give 23-year 0.76xPEG, target price 20.12 yuan, maintain "buy".
