Introduction to this report:

The company announced its 2024 mid-year report. The revenue of silicon materials rebounded quarterly, and profits were recovered; production of silicon components continued to expand, and performance contributions were released at an accelerated pace, maintaining an “gain” rating.

Key points of investment:

Maintain an “Overweight” rating. Shengong Co., Ltd. released its 2024 semi-annual report, achieving revenue of 0.125 billion yuan, an increase of 59%; net profit to mother of 4.76 million yuan, an increase of 120%; net profit after deducting non-return to mother of 3.89 million yuan, an increase of 115%. Net profit to mother was higher than the upper limit of the previous earnings pre-announcement, slightly exceeding market expectations. Countdown 24Q2 revenue of 0.067 billion yuan, net profit attributable to mother of 3.3 million yuan, net profit after deduction of 2.9 million yuan. Demand for 24H1 silicon materials is picking up steadily, the company's shipping structure is optimized, and high-cost raw materials are basically completely consumed. Silicon components have maintained high growth, and 24H2 growth is expected to accelerate. Considering the short-term steady recovery in demand for silicon materials, we lowered the 2024-26 EPS forecast to 0.23, 1.02, 1.79 (-0.06, -0.15, -0.21) yuan, referring to comparable companies' 25-year PE 25X, and lowered the target price to 25.5 yuan to maintain the “gain” rating.

Silicon materials revenue rebounded quarterly, and profits recovered. The company's 24H1 large-diameter silicon material revenue is about 80.4 million yuan. Q2 is expected to increase slightly compared to Q1. Structurally, the proportion of 16 inches or more is higher than 16 inches. Along with the trend of large-scale etching machines, demand for large diameter polycrystalline materials was stronger during the year, and the share is expected to increase steadily. The company's high-cost crystalline silicon raw materials are expected to be completely consumed, and gross margin will increase as polycrystalline materials research and development continues to advance, and 24H1 gross margin will be restored to 57.75%. Judging from current order visibility, short-term demand is expected to maintain a steady upward trend.

Production of silicon components continues to expand, and performance contributions are being released at an accelerated pace. The company's 24H1 silicon components generated revenue of 36.58 million yuan, and domestic replacement demand was strong. The company's customer material numbers and shipments increased during the year, and the upward trend was relatively stable. Production capacity is expected to be basically at full capacity. With the release of production capacity in Quanzhou and Jinzhou, 24H2 performance contributions are expected to be released at an accelerated pace. From a gross margin perspective, 24H1 reached 35.42%, which is already higher than the general gross profit level of overseas peers. The company has the advantage of integrating silicon materials, and there is sufficient potential for optimizing the product structure.

Silicon wafers are still being introduced. The company's 24H1 silicon wafer revenue is about 5.1 million yuan, and no profit has yet been realized.

Since the industry has yet to reach an inflection point of acceleration and curbs customer demand for new product development, the evaluation progress may be slightly slower than expected. The company takes into account evaluation needs and benefits and optimizes production scheduling plans. It is expected that during the year, it will continue to focus on customer imports and promote film certification. In addition, the company's inventory depreciation was about 5.12 million yuan, a sharp year-on-year decline, and the risk of impairment gradually narrowed.

Risk warning: raw material price fluctuations, semiconductor cycle fluctuations, new business progress falling short of expectations
