Higher utilization&lower coal price lift thermal power profit
For 2025,thermal power generation rose by 23.84%YoY to 23.23bn kWh.This mainly came from a23.85%YoY increase in thermal power utilization hours to 6,694 hours,despite anationwide YoY decline in thermal power utilization hours.We think that the company likely secured more generation volume in the spot market.For 2025,the on-grid tariff for thermal power fell by 12.00%YoY to RMB0.44/kWh,mainly because Guangdong’s 2025 annual long-term contract tariff saw arelatively large decline.For 2026,the annual long-term contract tariff in Guangdong is down by only RMB0.02/kWh YoY.Together with the capacity tariff increase from RMB100/kW to RMB165/kW,we expect the company’s thermal power tariff in 2026 to remain relatively stable YoY.Benefiting from asharp YoY decline in coal prices and as the majority of the company's coal procurement took place at the spot market,the gross margin in the power segment rose by 3.75pp YoY to 18.49%in 2025.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
The annual report disclosed that the onshore work for the Phase II expansion project of Guangdong Lufeng Jiahuwan Power Plant,a 2x1,000MW project under construction,is basically complete.Other works involving sea-use approvals are still going through the required approval procedures.On aconservative basis,we now push back our expected commissioning time for the company’s thermal power units under construction from 2027 to 2028.As aresult,we mainly revise down our 2027 attributable NP estimate by 8.80%.We now estimate attributable NP at RMB1.1bn,RMB1.1bn,and RMB1.3bn for 2026,2027,and 2028.We estimate the 2026E BPS at RMB6.13.Based on 1.05x 2026E PB,which is in line with the average for the company’s peers on Wind consensus,our target price is RMB6.43(previously RMB5.95,on 1.0x 2025E PB).Maintain BUY.
