1) affected by diversion, highway toll revenue decreased slightly compared with the same period last year.
From January to June, the company's toll revenue fell 2.18% year-on-year to 1.471 billion yuan, accounting for 68% of total revenue. The gross profit margin was 57.22%, an increase of 4.42 percentage points over the same period last year.

Affected by the diversion, the income of Changzhang and Changjiu Expressway decreased: the decline of toll income of Changzhang Expressway is mainly affected by the traffic diversion of Dongchang Expressway. This year, Changjiu Avenue (opened in June 2016) and Dongchang Expressway (opened in January 2017) have basically reflected the impact on the company's existing expressways (Changzhang Expressway and Changjiu Expressway).
Affected by the improvement of the road network, the income of Jiujing and Changtai increased: the opening of the Quzhou section of Hangzhou-Xinjing Expressway led to the growth of Jiujing Expressway service income; the improvement of the road network increased the number of cross-provincial traffic, and the revenue of Zhi Changtai traffic service increased significantly.
Most of the gross profit margins of core road products have increased. Among the above four core road production, except that the gross profit margin of Changzhang highway decreased by 1.25% to 60.06% compared with the same period last year, the other high-speed gross profit margin increased (Changjiu, Jiujing, Changtai increased by 3.07%, 4.85% and 1.96% respectively.
2) Diversified business: the sales of oil products increased slightly and the project revenue decreased significantly.
Revenue from oil products sales in the first half of the year reached 411 million, an increase of 3.79 percent over the same period last year, mainly due to an increase in the average selling price of oil products in the first half of the year.
The revenue of the engineering business reached 230 million, a decrease of 23.26% over the same period last year, mainly due to the slowdown of the company's highway construction and the reduction of engineering projects in the first half of the year.
3. Capital expenditure is coming to an end, multiple assets contribution support and the basis of future transformation. 1) the company's future capital expenditure is coming to an end. The reconstruction and expansion of Changjiu Expressway will be completed and opened to traffic in 2018, which may be the last large-scale project in the next few years. The government's policy of extending the toll life of 14 years and 9 months after the renovation and expansion of Changzhang Expressway is also of reference significance to Changjiu after it is completed and opened to traffic.

Financial and real estate projects have a total potential value of 9.5 billion, contributing to market capitalization support and the basis of future transformation.
4. Investment advice: valuation still has room to repair, maintain the "push" rating 1) We believe that the current highway may be in a period of both profitability and valuation.
A) the economic recovery cycle, the growth of traffic flow and the improvement of asset profitability; b) from a policy point of view, or when it is in a marginal turn
2) in "illustrating the growth rate of PB and GDP in the high-speed plate: or in the warming period of fundamentals and policies-- A series of studies on the highway industry (1)", we point out that there is a correlation between the change of PB of highway companies and the trend of local GDP growth. It is recommended that the trend of low PB and PB has not followed the local GDP growth rate, and the targets that may have room for repair in the future include Jiangxi-Guangdong Expressway (PB 0.96).
3) it is estimated that the EPS of the company in 2017-19 is 0.37,0.39 and 0.45 yuan respectively, and the corresponding PE is 15.4,14.8 and 12.8 times respectively. The highway industry average PB1.5 times, PE16 times, the company is the only broken net stock, in view of the future capital expenditure is coming to an end, multiple assets contribution strong support and the basis of future transformation, the incentive plan combines the management, backbone and the company's long-term interests, the establishment of a long-term mechanism is expected to release operational vitality and maintain the "strong push" rating.
