海大集团(002311):国内份额高质量提升 出海布局打开成长空间

Haida Group (002311): High quality domestic share, increase overseas layout, open up room for growth

The company's recent situation

Recently, we invited the management of Haida Group to attend the 2024 China Finance Annual Strategy Meeting. The company exchanged views with the market on feed going overseas and domestic feed and breeding business prospects. We believe that as a feed leader in the entire industry chain, the company is expected to continue to grow beyond the limit by increasing its share of domestic quality, accelerating overseas layout, and making steady profits in its farming business.

reviews

1. Domestic feed: High quality increases its share, and the popularity of pig feed and aquatic products is expected to increase marginally. We believe that 1) Aquatic materials: Aquatic products are currently low, and domestic consumption activity is expected to continue to be released. We expect fishery prices or savings support for 25 years. Against the backdrop of limited feed cost pressure, farmers' marginal profit margins, and a marginal increase in seedling investment, the company's aquatic materials are expected to gain more room for sales growth and profit release. At the same time, according to Tongwei Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, the average price of California perch/raw fish was +25.5%/+14.7% year on year in 3Q24. We expect farmers to be anti-season or relatively active, which is expected to provide some support for special water in the first half of '25; 2) Pig feed: Retail pig farmers withdrew rapidly in 24, and the decline in storage led to intense competition in the pig feed industry. 1-3Q24 national pig production fell 6.8% year on year. At the same time, the market-based pig feed space continued to shrink, and the decline may be greater than the overall level of pig feed. We expect that with a marginal recovery in storage, downstream demand for pig feed is expected to improve marginally in 25 years. With high-quality products and a professional service system as a starting point, the company is expected to continue to increase its market share; 3) Poultry: Demand for terminal protein in poultry may rise steadily. The competitive pattern is relatively clear, and the company is expected to develop steadily on high-tonnage interest tracks such as eggs and poultry.

2. Overseas feed: Accelerate the layout to open up room for growth, and have obvious advantages in technology, service and management. We believe that 1) Overseas feed space is vast: According to Alltech, the global and Chinese feed production in '23 was 1.29/0.26 billion tons, and the per capita animal protein consumption level in the seven Southeast Asian countries in '21 was only the level of China in '05, which is about 63% of China's in '21, and there is plenty of room for feed to go overseas; 2) the company's overseas trips are expected to reduce the impact: the company is expected to gradually complete the core production capacity layout in Southeast Asia, South America, and Africa, where demand for high-quality protein is strong, and is expected to export domestic “gold+seeds+seedlings” horns A mature system combines “endogenous+extension” to accelerate the increase in overseas market share. 1H24's overseas feed export sales increased by more than 30% year-on-year, and 3Q24 sales and profits continued to grow well. We expect that with technological transformation and the expansion of supporting services overseas, overseas profits are expected to continue to grow faster than sales in the future.

3. Breeding business: The pig breeding business is expected to achieve stable profits, and aquaculture is progressing steadily. We believe that 1) pig farming: the asset-light platform-based farming model of purchasing piglet packages from outside the company is gradually being implemented, and is expected to achieve stable profits in 25 years; 2) Aquaculture: The scale of raw fish farming is expected to shrink to a reasonable level in 25 years. Compared with farmers, factory shrimp farming has a differentiated competitive advantage over farmers, and is expected to advance steadily.
