Operating Revenue: Up 39.57% Year-over-Year in the First Three Quarters

In the first three quarters of 2024, the company achieved operating revenue of 228 million yuan, a 39.57% increase from 163 million yuan in the same period last year. This growth was mainly driven by a recovery in customer demand, normal delivery schedules, and steady operational pace, resulting in a significant expansion in revenue scale. However, revenue in the third quarter alone was 36.34 million yuan, down 14.42% year-over-year, indicating a slowdown in quarterly performance.

Net Profit: Turned from Profit to Loss in the First Three Quarters

Net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company for the first three quarters was -2.23 million yuan, a 111.46% decline from 19.49 million yuan in the same period last year, shifting from profit to loss. The main factors include: first, increased provision for credit impairment losses due to revenue growth; second, last year’s litigation ruling in the Kirin case contributed a net profit of 22.60 million yuan, which was absent this year; third, government grants related to gains and losses decreased significantly compared to last year, which included a non-repetitive industrial park construction subsidy of 13.50 million yuan and military product VAT exemption income of 15.23 million yuan. The VAT exemption income for military products has not been issued this year. Net profit in the third quarter alone was -39.34 million yuan, turning from profit to loss year-over-year.

Net profit attributable to shareholders after deducting non-recurring gains and losses was -14.18 million yuan in the first three quarters. Last year’s relevant data was not disclosed, but from the quarterly view, non-recurring net profit was -42.80 million yuan, indicating a larger loss. Non-recurring gains and losses totaled 119.41 million yuan, mainly from government grants of 37.32 million yuan, fair value changes and disposal gains of financial assets held by non-financial enterprises totaling 73.22 million yuan, among others.

Basic Earnings Per Share: Sharp Drop of 2600% in a Single Quarter

Basic earnings per share for the first three quarters were -0.01 yuan/share, down 107.69% from 0.13 yuan/share last year. In the third quarter alone, EPS was -0.25 yuan/share, a drastic decrease of 2600% year-over-year. The significant decline in EPS is directly related to the company’s net loss.

Non-Recurring Earnings Per Share: Also in Loss

Non-recurring EPS aligned with non-recurring net profit, at -0.09 yuan/share for the first three quarters and -0.28 yuan/share in the third quarter, reflecting weak profitability in core operations.

Accounts Receivable: Significant Year-over-Year Increase at Period-End

As of September 2024, accounts receivable stood at 344.26 million yuan, up 15.78% from 297 million yuan at the end of last year. The increase correlates with revenue growth in the first three quarters but also indicates rising collection pressure, warranting attention to subsequent recovery and potential bad debt risks.

Notes Receivable: Major Year-over-Year Decrease at Period-End

As of September 2024, notes receivable totaled 3.73 million yuan, down 51.91% from 7.76 million yuan at year-end last year. The significant reduction may relate to adjustments in settlement policies or changes in customer payment methods.

Weighted Average Return on Net Assets: From Positive to Negative

The weighted average return on net assets for the first three quarters was -0.15%, a decrease of 1.38 percentage points from last year. In the third quarter, it was -2.57%, down 2.69 percentage points year-over-year, indicating a substantial decline in profitability of the company’s net assets.

Inventory: Decreased Significantly at Period-End

As of September 2024, inventory was 1.13 billion yuan, down 29.85% from 1.60 billion yuan at the end of last year. The reduction mainly results from normal delivery schedules and increased outbound inventory, which has optimized the company’s inventory structure to some extent.

Selling Expenses: Slight Year-over-Year Decrease in the First Three Quarters

Selling expenses for the first three quarters were 25.78 million yuan, down 5.83% from 27.38 million yuan last year. The slight decrease amid revenue growth indicates initial success in cost control on the sales front.

Management Expenses: Decreased by 10.36% Year-over-Year

Management expenses totaled 49.95 million yuan, down 10.36% from 55.72 million yuan last year, reflecting strengthened cost management in administrative areas.

Financial Expenses: Turned from Negative to Positive in the First Three Quarters

Financial expenses were -345,700 yuan, an increase of 132.57 million yuan from -1.67 million yuan last year, shifting from a large net gain to a small net gain. This was mainly due to a significant decrease in interest income, which was 1.86 million yuan this period compared to 4.74 million yuan last year; meanwhile, interest expenses decreased to 1.47 million yuan from 3.02 million yuan.

R&D Expenses: Decreased by 14.25% Year-over-Year

In the third quarter alone, R&D expenditure was 18.49 million yuan, down 20.19% year-over-year, with R&D accounting for 50.86% of revenue, still at a relatively high level, indicating sustained high R&D investment despite revenue decline.

Net Cash Flow from Operating Activities: Turned Positive

Net cash flow from operating activities in the first three quarters was 0.03 million yuan, turning from -8.09 million yuan last year, mainly due to reduced procurement payments. However, the scale remains small, reflecting limited cash generation from core operations.

Net Cash Flow from Investing Activities: Turned Positive with Large Inflows

Net cash flow from investing activities was 69.96 million yuan, a significant turnaround from -273.85 million yuan last year, mainly due to increased cash recovered from investments, which was 421 million yuan this period compared to 230 million yuan last year. Cash paid for investments decreased to 350 million yuan from 473 million yuan, indicating stronger cash inflows from investment recoveries.

Net Cash Flow from Financing Activities: Increased Net Outflow

Net cash flow from financing activities was -95.91 million yuan, further expanding from -80.37 million yuan last year. This was mainly due to a sharp decrease in cash received from borrowings, which was 9.80 million yuan this period compared to 69.18 million yuan last year; debt repayments remained at 69.18 million yuan, plus 35.05 million yuan paid for other financing activities (mainly share repurchases), leading to increased net outflows.
