Bright Field Equipment received orders for advanced manufacturing processes, and progress in the new display accelerated. 1) Flat panel display inspection business. In the field of intelligent and precision optical instruments, the company's main products are color analyzers, single-point spectrometers, spectral confocal spectrometers, imaging flickering frequency meters, imaging luminance colorimeters, AR/VR measuring instruments, etc., which have broken foreign monopolies and received repeated batch orders from domestic and foreign core customers. At this stage, the company has achieved large-scale sales. At the same time, the company has reached cooperation with top global customers and completed partial deliveries. It cooperated with top global customers on Pancake AOI optical systems and algorithms. Imported successfully.

2) Semiconductor quantity testing business. The company's film thickness series products, OCD equipment, and electron beam equipment have obtained repeated orders for advanced domestic processes. Semiconductor silicon wafer stress measurement equipment has been verified and has obtained repeated orders from many leading domestic customers. Brightfield optical defect detection equipment has completed delivery and acceptance of the first set, and has obtained official orders for advanced processes. The remaining products, such as graphic dark field defect detection equipment, are currently in the process of R&D, certification and expansion. 3) In the new energy testing business, the company has further strengthened its in-depth cooperation with its core strategic customers in the field of lithium battery equipment. At the same time, the company's new energy overseas strategic layout has made substantial progress.

Profit forecast and investment rating We expect the company to achieve revenue of 2.979, 3.742, and 4.681 billion yuan in 2024-2026, and achieve net profit of 0.261, 0.389, and 0.543 billion yuan. The current price corresponds to PE at 57, 38, and 28 times, respectively. The company is a leading domestic flat panel display testing equipment company, and semiconductor testing equipment is being deployed at an accelerated pace to maintain a “buy” rating.

Risks suggest that the recovery of the flat panel display and semiconductor industry falls short of expectations; new product development progress falls short of expectations; risk of product technology iteration; risk of domestic replacement of semiconductor equipment falling short of expectations; increased industry competition; risk of production capacity expansion falling short of expectations; risk of high R&D investment not being converted into revenue in a timely manner; and risk of falling gross margin.
