Profit forecasting and investment advice. As the company's focus, the overseas market continues to contribute to revenue growth. The compound growth rate of overseas revenue has been above 50% in the past three years, and product competitiveness is outstanding. At the same time, new strategic directions such as autonomous driving and low altitude are also expected to bring new growth impetus to the company. Among them, the low-altitude economy is juxtaposed with commercial aerospace, biomedicine, etc., making it a strategic emerging industry currently being rapidly deployed from the central government to the local authorities, with broad space. We expect the company's revenue for 2024-2026 to be 3.405 billion yuan, 4.356 billion yuan, 5.555 billion yuan, and net profit to mother of 0.583 billion yuan, 0.747 billion yuan, and 0.957 billion yuan, corresponding EPS of 1.07 yuan, 1.37 yuan, and 1.75 billion yuan. Referring to comparable company valuations, the 2024 PE range is 30-35x, and the corresponding reasonable value range is 32.08 yuan to 37.42 yuan, giving a “superior to the market” rating.
Risk warning. The expansion of overseas markets fell short of expectations; the expansion of emerging businesses in the domestic market fell short of expectations.
