   Sufficient business resilience and long-term prosperity

Event description The company released 2024Q1 quarterly report, and achieved revenue of 1.317 billion yuan in 24Q1, with a year-on-year growth of 5.22% and a month on month growth of 13.86%; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 351 million, up 4.95% year on year and 87.64% month on month; Net profit excluding non attributable to parent company was 351 million, up 7.76% year on year and 71.44% month on month. Event comment The short-term change in demand rhythm slowed down the growth of revenue, and the steady increase in profitability demonstrated business resilience. 24Q1 The company's aviation new material business achieved a revenue of 1.305 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 5.05%. The growth slowed down in stages or was mainly due to the current transition period of new and old models and short-term changes in demand rhythm; The equipment business realized an operating revenue of 3.6811 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 46.88%, which is still in the stage of product upgrading. On the profit side, 24Q1's aviation new material business realized a net profit attributable to the parent of RMB 365 million, up 4.95% year on year, and the equipment business realized a net profit attributable to the parent of RMB -8755100, up 520800 year on year.

Contractual liabilities are still at a low level, waiting for demand recovery, and looking ahead to expand production to ensure future equipment delivery and business development needs. At the end of 24Q1, the balance of the company's contractual liabilities was 62 million, up 11.81% month on month, but still at a historical low, or reflecting that a new round of downstream demand has not yet materialized. In this context, the company is still actively doing a good job in capacity reserves to lay a solid foundation for ensuring future equipment delivery and business expansion. As of the end of 24Q1, the balance of construction in progress and fixed assets of the company was 275 million and 1023 million respectively, and the balance of construction in progress was at a historical high. At present, the company's projects under construction include the construction of a new prepreg production plant and a material storage and distribution center in Beijing Shunyi Aviation Industrial Park, as well as the reconstruction and construction of the wire laying room of No. 5 aviation industrial compound plant. The construction has been steadily progressing. In the past 24 years, the company's business objectives were low or affected by the pace of equipment delivery. In history, it has exceeded its profit objectives for many times. In 2024, the Company aims to achieve an operating revenue of 5 billion yuan, an increase of 4.60% over the actual value of 23 years, and a total profit of 1.282 billion yuan, an increase of 5.69% over the actual value of 23 years. The company's revenue growth target for 24 years is low or mainly because the annual delivery volume of some major downstream models is in the later stage of the climb, and the overall growth rate is slowing, while the new generation models have not yet reached the level of mass delivery; The total profit growth target is low but still higher than the revenue growth target, reflecting the company's profitability. Historically, the company's total profit target over the years is relatively conservative, and the total profit actually completed in 2018-2020 is significantly higher than the target value at the beginning of the year. Look ahead to the layout of COMAC commercial development and low-altitude economic high-end civil composite material market, and open the ceiling of long-term growth in the future. In 2024Q1, the company invested 163.2 million yuan to set up a holding joint venture subsidiary (51% of the company's shares) - Shanghai Aeroengine Composite Materials Co., Ltd., which is mainly engaged in the manufacturing of components such as resin matrix composite fan blades and casings for aeroengines. In addition to COMAC and COMAC market, the company has used the core composite technology accumulated over the years to promote the application of composite materials in unmanned aerial vehicles, electric aircraft and some emerging fields, and has provided some composite products to relevant companies in the low altitude economic field, including composite structures at propeller and other parts of the company using prepreg products. Risk tip 1. The delivery process of downstream OEMs is not as expected; 2. The company's project production progress and order acquisition were not as expected.

On the one hand, the proportion of Q1's overseas revenue increased by 10 pct to 48%, and the overseas gross profit margin in 23 years was 7.57 pct higher than that in China. The increase in the proportion of Q1's overseas revenue with high gross profit margin led to an increase in profitability. On the other hand, the company will reduce costs and increase efficiency through supplier integration, application and replacement of new materials, new processes and new technologies, localization of parts, and improvement of self production rate of key parts, and its profitability is expected to continue to improve. In addition, the equity incentive expense of 24Q1 Company was 216 million yuan, after excluding the impact, the company's profitability was higher. The domestic industry has bottomed out and stabilized. In March, the domestic sales of excavators in China reached+9.3% year on year.

Event comment: The revenue in a single quarter maintained a medium high growth rate, and the profit growth driven by the expense growth of subsidiaries was slightly lower than that of the revenue side. The company achieved revenue of 248 million yuan in 24Q1, yoy+32.61%, and the revenue growth rate exceeded 30% for five consecutive quarters from 23Q1 to 24Q1, mainly due to the continuous growth of the company's batch production and small batch trial production business, and the gradual landing of new business to contribute to revenue. On the profit side, the company's net profit attributable to the parent company was 114 million, a year-on-year increase of 29.4%, slightly lower than the income side, mainly due to slight fluctuations in profitability. The gross profit rate of the company in the first quarter was 58.76% (yoy-0.44pcts), which remained stable; The period expense rate was 13.73% (yoy+1.24pcts), of which the management expense rate was 6.53% (yoy+1.08pcts, mainly due to the increase of subsidiary expenses and Shanghai Ruihuasheng share based payment), and the financial expense rate was 0.23% (yoy+1.22pcts, mainly due to the increase of interest expenses), driving the net interest rate to 44.09%, a year-on-year decrease of 2.74pcts. With sufficient orders in hand, the company actively prepared goods, and the expansion project accelerated to ensure order delivery and business development. The downstream demand of the company is strong and the orders in hand are sufficient. By the end of March 2024, the orders of special functional materials in hand of the parent company of the company are about 800 million. The subsidiary Shenyang Huaqin Hangfa has signed orders of about 81 million yuan accumulatively, and the orders that have not been executed are about 55 million yuan. In order to ensure the smooth completion of orders, the company actively increased the stock of raw materials. The inventory balance at the end of 24Q1 was 188 million, an increase of 50.23% over the beginning of the year, a record high. In terms of capacity, the company's new material park raised investment projects and aviation parts intelligent manufacturing projects accelerated. At the end of 24Q1, the balance of projects under construction was 599 million, an increase of 31.17% over the beginning of the year, and the balance of fixed assets was 313 million, an increase of 8.53% over the beginning of the year. The new business development of the company has successfully opened up a multi-dimensional growth curve, which is expected to create a flagship platform for special functional materials.

As of March 2024, about 81 million orders have been signed, and about 55 million orders have not been executed. The intelligent manufacturing project of aviation parts will accelerate, and the proportion of engineering investment will reach 28.88%. At the same time, the gross margin of the company's parts processing business is only -6.58%, There is broad room for improvement by reference to peer companies; Nanjing Huaqin has made business progress in high-end civil fields such as industrial noise reduction and acoustic laboratory, and actively carried out follow-up research on aviation and underwater vehicles; Ruihuasheng New Materials was set up and actively carried out the preliminary construction of the project. At present, the newly established subsidiaries are still in the loss stage due to large initial investment. In the future, with business expansion and scale effect appearing, they are expected to gradually achieve profitability. Core recommendation logic, profit forecast and valuation: the company is the leader of a few domestic stealth materials covering the whole temperature domain. Based on the current situation, the company has outstanding technological leadership, outstanding industrialization capability, continuous production expansion, guaranteed delivery, and is expected to enjoy the boom dividend of Airfat stealth materials track alone; Looking into the future, the company is based on material technology, vertically extends the layout of Aviva parts processing, deeply binds downstream customers, horizontally expands the business of protection, camouflage and acoustic materials, creates a flagship platform for special materials, and opens the company's long-term growth space. It is estimated that the company's performance in 24-26 years will be 521/671/874 million, yoy+56%/29%/30% respectively, and the PE corresponding to the current market value will be 37, 29 and 22 times respectively. It is not ruled out that the future downstream model batch production will exceed the expectation and the profit forecast will be raised. Risk tip 1. The risk of income fluctuation caused by the order release rhythm; 2. The risk that the product price reduction will lead to a decline in profitability.

   Continuous repair of hot and hot double wing operation, steady performance highlights investment value

Event description The company released its 2023 annual report and 2024 first quarter report: in 2023, the company realized an operating revenue of 56.712 billion yuan, an increase of 12.32% year on year; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 6.705 billion yuan, up 64.31% year on year. In the first quarter of 2024, the company will achieve an operating revenue of 14.108 billion yuan, up 6.43% year on year; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 2.035 billion yuan, up 26.14% year on year. Event comment The main business operation was fully restored, and the annual performance was excellent. Although the incoming water will continue to be dry in 2023, the company's hydropower generation capacity will be 94.206 billion kWh, a year-on-year decrease of 5.03%, but the thermal power generation capacity will be 58.06 billion kWh, a year-on-year increase of 14.93%, and the growth rate of wind power and photovoltaic power generation will also reach 31.75% and 60.36% respectively. Under the strong performance of thermal power and new energy power, the company's total power generation was 161.973 billion kWh, up 3.35% year on year. In terms of electricity price, due to the YoY increase of Yalong River outgoing electricity price and the increase in the proportion of electricity of high priced units such as Lianghekou and Yangfanggou Power Station, the company's hydropower grid price is 0.3 yuan/kWh, with a YoY increase of 10.29%. As some units participate in the provincial spot price in 2022, the thermal power price decreases by 1.46% YoY. On the whole, the electricity quantity and electricity price maintained a strong performance. The annual revenue reached 56.712 billion yuan, an increase of 12.32% year on year. Due to the steady decline of coal price and the year-on-year increase of hydropower price, the gross profit margin of the company reached 36.08%, with a year-on-year increase of 4.04pct. At the same time, the company continued to promote the replacement of high interest debt, and financial expenses decreased by 14.59% year on year. In addition, thanks to the repair of the operation of the joint-stock company, the investment income reached 697 million yuan, up 155.33% year on year. However, as the impairment amount of overseas Singapore assets reached 200 million yuan, the company's credit and asset impairment amount reached 398 million yuan, which to some extent slowed down the performance. On the whole, driven by the continuous repair of the main power business, the company realized a net profit attributable to the parent company of 6.705 billion yuan, up 64.31% year on year, of which the net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company contributed by Yalong River hydropower reached 4.5 billion yuan, up 17.49% year on year. The company plans to pay a dividend of 0.4948 yuan per share (tax included), accounting for about 55% of the net profit attributable to the parent company. The dividend will remain stable. Thermal power business continued to repair, with excellent performance in the first quarter. In the first quarter of 2024, the water from Sichuan and Yunnan will continue to be dry, and the hydropower generation capacity of the company will be 21.434 billion kWh, down 8.31% year on year; Thermal power benefited from the improved demand in the region and the commissioning of new units, generating 15.161 billion kWh, up 17.7% year on year; Driven by the rapid growth of installed capacity, the growth rate of wind power and photovoltaic power generation is 15.95% and 135.15% respectively. In terms of electricity price, the company's average on grid electricity price for hydropower in the first quarter was 0.318 yuan/kWh, up 4.26% year on year; The average on grid price of thermal power is 0.463 yuan/kWh, down 1.91% year on year. Under the strong performance of thermal power and hydropower electricity prices, the company's total power generation was 39.542 billion kWh, up 3.27% year on year; The on grid electricity price was 0.387 yuan/kWh, up 3.75% year on year, so the company's revenue in the first quarter reached 14.108 billion yuan, up 6.43% year on year. In terms of cost, the supply and demand situation of coal in the first quarter was loose, and the coal price continued to decline. The average market price of Q5500 steam coal in Qinhuangdao Port in the first quarter was 901.74 yuan/ton, a year-on-year decrease of 20.1%. The continuous decline of coal price will significantly release the pressure on the cost side of thermal power. The gross profit rate of the company in the first quarter was 40.28%, up 2.78 pct year on year. At the same time, the company's three expenses continued to fall back, and the investment income reached 195 million yuan driven by the restoration of the operating environment of the joint-stock company, with a year-on-year growth of 81.24%. On the whole, the company's net profit attributable to the parent company in the first quarter reached 2.035 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 26.14%. Under the background of dry water, the performance was stable. Investment suggestion: according to the latest financial data, we estimate that the corresponding EPS of the company from 2024 to 2026 will be 1.06 yuan, 1.14 yuan and 1.24 yuan respectively, and the corresponding PE will be 14.34 times, 13.37 times and 12.33 times respectively, maintaining the "buy" rating. Risk tip 1. The progress and benefits of the new project are not as good as expected; 2. Risk that wind conditions and light resources are not as good as expected.

   Yangtze Power

   The dividend rate is stable and consistent with the commitment, and the inflow fluctuation of multi factor hedging

Event description The company released its 2023 annual report and 2024 first quarter report: in 2023, the company realized an operating revenue of 78.112 billion yuan, with a year-on-year growth of 13.43%; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 27.239 billion yuan, up 14.81% year on year. In the first quarter of 2024, the company will achieve an operating revenue of 15.641 billion yuan, up 1.58% year on year; The net profit attributable to the parent company was 3.967 billion yuan, up 9.80% year on year. Event comment: electricity continued to be repaired, and the annual performance achieved steady growth. In 2023, the total inflow of Wudongde Reservoir in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River will be about 102.908 billion cubic meters, 5.46% lower than the same period last year; The total inflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir is about 342.846 billion cubic meters, 0.71% higher than that of the same period last year. Although the incoming water is not good, the Baihetan Hydropower Station was not fully completed and put into operation in the same period last year, so the company's total power generation in 2023 will be about 276.263 billion kWh, an increase of 5.34% over the same period last year. The company's market electricity accounted for 37.76%, up 3.8 percentage points year on year. As the electricity price of Baihetan Power Station is higher than that of other power stations of the company, the company will achieve an annual operating income of 78.112 billion yuan in 2023, with a year-on-year growth of 13.43%, which is better than the growth of electricity. The gross profit margin of the company is 57.83%, with a year-on-year growth of 0.7 pct. In addition, driven by the steady operation of the joint-stock company, the company's investment income reached 4.75 billion yuan, up 3.26% year on year. In terms of profit reduction factors, due to the company's acquisition of Wubai Power Station, a large amount of debt was raised, so the company's financial expenses reached 12.556 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 31.05%, and the R&D expenses also reached 789 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 779.95%, limiting the growth of performance to some extent. On the whole, the repair of the main business is still strong, with the annual performance reaching 27.239 billion yuan, up 14.81% year on year. The company plans to distribute cash dividends of 8.20 yuan (tax included) for every 10 shares, with a dividend ratio of 73.66% and a stable dividend level. The water supply is too dry to limit the hydropower output, and the performance of cost reduction and income increase is better than expected. In the first quarter of 2024, the total inflow of Wudongde Reservoir in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River is about 14.849 billion cubic meters, 7.71% lower than the same period of the previous year; The total inflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir is about 49.767 billion cubic meters, 4.14% lower than the same period last year. Affected by dry water, the total power generation of the six cascade power stations within the company is about 52.747 billion kWh, a decrease of 5.13% over the same period of the previous year. Although the electricity performance is under pressure, or because the electricity price mechanism of some power stations belonging to the company was clarified last year, the electricity price may be increased this year under the influence of the confirmed time rhythm. At the same time, the electricity price of the company's electricity in Sichuan and Yunnan during the dry season is expected to increase with the year-on-year increase of the electricity price in the two provinces during the dry season, thanks to the company's operating revenue of 15.641 billion yuan in the first quarter, 1.58% year-on-year growth. In terms of cost, as a large number of fixed assets of Wubai Power Station have been transferred to fixed assets since the beginning of last year, the company's operating cost in the first quarter reached 8.112 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 4.31%, resulting in the company's gross profit of 7.529 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 1.20%. However, the company continued to optimize the debt structure. The financial expenses in the first quarter were 2.851 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 9.40%. Driven by the significant repair of the operating performance of the joint-stock companies, the investment income in the first quarter reached 900 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 55.73%. Driven by increased cost reduction and substantial growth of investment income, the company realized a net profit attributable to the parent company of 3.967 billion yuan in the first quarter, up 9.80% year on year.

The effect of increasing volume and controlling cost is significant, and the profitability remains stable against the background of global gas price decline. With a complete technical system, Yamei Energy has made continuous efforts to increase production and reduce costs. In 2023, the average cost of CBM will be 0.85 yuan/m3, a year-on-year decrease of 3%. With the rapid production of MABI, the cost will continue to decline. In terms of output, the company's total output will be 1.704 billion m3 in 2023, with a year-on-year growth of 16.16%. Among them, 1132 million cubic meters were produced in Panzhuang, a year-on-year decrease of 4.27%, and 572 million cubic meters were produced in Mabi, a year-on-year increase of 101%. In November last year, the daily output exceeded 2 million cubic meters and continued to rise. Looking forward to the future, the production of Mobil will climb and Zijinshan will be put into production soon, and the company's output will continue to increase. In terms of price, the average price of LNG in Northeast Asia will decrease by 52.91% year on year in 2023, but the company's CBM production is mainly pipeline gas sales, which is less affected by market price fluctuations. The annual average sales price is 2.09 yuan/m3, a year-on-year decrease of 7.83%. Among them, the price of Panzhuang is 2.07 yuan/m3, a year-on-year decrease of 10.39%; The price of MABI was 2.13 yuan/m3, up 3.90% year on year. With the access of Mabi to the west first line and the recovery of Tongyu pipeline in the second half of 2013, the price still has room for improvement. Even if the global gas price declines, the company's CBM production business profit may have strong support.

After the opening of favorable price in Xinjiang, the profitability of urban gas business is expected to improve significantly. In 2023, the price of pipeline gas of PetroChina will rise, and the procurement cost of the company's Xinjiang urban gas business will rise, leading to a decrease of 7.9 and 11.73 pct in gross profit margin in 24Q1 compared with the same period, and a loss of 28 million yuan in net investment income. On April 23, Urumqi held a hearing on rationalizing the natural gas price mechanism, which included: verifying the gas distribution price of classified users; Rationalize the sales price of classified users; Establish and improve the ladder price system for residential gas consumption; Establish upstream and downstream linkage mechanism of gas source purchase and sales price; At the same time, the price of non residential central heating will be adjusted. In the first stage (2024), the sales price of gas for central heating will be adjusted by 0.33 yuan/m3 in the same direction on the basis of 1.37 yuan/m3, and the sales price of gas for industrial and commercial use will increase by 0.25 yuan/m3 compared with the current price. In addition, we will establish and improve the ladder price system for residential gas consumption. In order to meet different gas demand, the stepped gas consumption of residents is set to the first, second and third levels, and the price is increased progressively in excess. After this favorable price landing, the company's urban gas business profit is expected to improve significantly.

Through the strategy of "strengthening, extending and supplementing the chain", it is expected to build and consolidate the "whole industry chain of natural gas". In 2023, in addition to completing the privatization of Asian American energy, the cross-border merger and acquisition of Asia Pacific Petroleum Co., Ltd. to obtain the controlling right, and the joint development of Zijin Mountain Block, the two unconventional natural gas resources of deep coalbed methane and tight sandstone gas will be obtained at one fell swoop; Completed the bankruptcy reorganization of Benevolence, built the Henan market with LNG plant as the bridgehead and radiated to the surrounding areas; At the same time, Xinjiang Mingxin Oil and Gas Exploration and Development Co., Ltd. and Henan Xintai Clean Energy Technology Co., Ltd. were established with Karamay Urban Investment to carry out investment and development of oil and gas energy based on Xinjiang and the central region, as well as the whole country and even Central Asia. Through the strategy of "strengthening the chain, extending the chain and supplementing the chain", we have basically realized the business pattern of the whole industrial chain integration of "resources, pipelines and customers".
