Five plants technology listing termination reason

Wuzhu Technology, in order to seize the market, chose the low price competition strategy to get orders so was suspended from listing. This strategy may be able to bring some short-term revenue, but not a permanent solution, that is, disrupting the normal order of the market. Prospectus shows that five plants technology main business for the research and development, production and sales of printed circuit boards, products are widely used in 4G/5G network and communications infrastructure, smart phones, consumer electronics, high-end servers, computers and storage, industrial control medical, automotive electronics, new energy, aerospace and other fields. The company's products are characterized by one-stop, multi-species, reliable quality and fast response, covering precision single/double-sided boards, multilayer boards, high-density interconnect boards (HDI boards), flexible boards (FPC), rigid-flexible combination boards (RFPC), high-frequency and high-speed boards, and metal substrates (thick copper boards, copper substrates, aluminum substrates, etc.) and other types. The company has now developed into one of the few domestic printed circuit board manufacturers that can simultaneously mass produce high multilayer boards, HDI boards, flexible boards, and high-frequency high-speed boards. The prospectus shows that in January-September 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, the operating income of Wuzhu Technology was 2.102 billion yuan, 2.424 billion yuan, 2.473 billion yuan and 2.109 billion yuan; of which the main business income was 2.042 billion yuan, 2.368 billion yuan, 2.410 billion yuan and 2.029 billion yuan, and the recent three-year compound growth rate of 8.65%, accounting for 97.11%, 97.69%, 97.47% and 96.2% of the overall operating income, respectively.

1, the net profit of Wuzhu Technology

In the case of steadily increasing revenue, the net profit performance of Wuzhu Technology is lackluster. The prospectus shows that in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 from January to September, the net profit of five plants science and technology was 23,371,800 yuan, 88,048,000 yuan, 88,579,800 yuan and 56,829,500 yuan; net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company after deducting non-recurring gains and losses was 32,283,400 yuan, 97,098,200 yuan, 92.035 million yuan and 40.2634 million yuan. In the case of a small difference in revenue size, the net profit of Wuzhu Technology is a big difference, which may be related to its gross profit margin. The prospectus shows that in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 from January to September, Wuzhu Technology's gross profit margin was 20.01%, 22.79%, 24.67% and 19.55% respectively.

2, one of the main products of the multilayer board gross profit margin also continued to be lower than the average level of the industry

Prospectus shows that in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 January-September, five plants technology multilayer board products gross profit margin were 14.59% 17.63%, 19.02% and 17.6%, while the average level of the same industry is 22.94%, 24.73%, 25.31% and 20.21%. In this regard, five plants technology explained that, on the one hand, at the end of the 4G construction and Huawei, ZTE and other customers in the field of communications business to the old models of products, technology is more mature, resulting in lower product pricing and gross margins. On the other hand, the company continues to invest in high-precision production and auxiliary equipment to improve the production capacity and automated production level of high multilayer boards, but due to the high multilayer boards have a market cultivation period, and the high multilayer boards require a certain amount of time for the accumulation of experience and technological precipitation in order to maintain a higher level of yields, which led to a lower level of gross profit margins in 2017 and 2018; in 2019, the customers in the field of communications with Huawei, ZTE and other customers in the field of communications The deep cooperation of high multilayer boards makes the gross margin of high multilayer boards rise.

3, five plants technology to multilayer boards

"January-September 2020, multilayer board product structure remains stable, unit price, unit cost slightly increased, but by the Chinese New Year holiday and the new crown epidemic and other factors, the overall start rate is insufficient, resulting in a gross profit margin compared to 2019 decreased by 1.42%. However, it should be noted that, from the current revenue contribution, five plants technology multilayer board is still dominated by ordinary multilayer boards, high multilayer boards accounted for a tiny proportion, and in 2018 so far, high multilayer board revenue did not have significant growth, which seems to be somewhat different from the above explanation. At the same time, the current domestic PCB market competition is more intense, due to the main to Huawei, ZTE, Transfar and other communications including infrastructure, cell phone field terminal customers, its products have the characteristics of large batch, customer bargaining power is relatively strong, usually will select a number of PCB companies for price comparison.
