发布时间:2026-09-08 来源:华泰证券
For 1H26,the company recorded revenue of RMB5,809mn(+5.57%YoY),attributable net profit(NP)of RMB129mn(-60.98%YoY),and recurring attributable NP of RMB111mn(-64.14%YoY).On aquarterly basis,revenue increased by 19.66%QoQ to RMB3,164mn in 2Q26,while attributable/recurring attributable NP increased by 48.08/46.67%QoQ,indicating sequential improvement in operations.The YoY pressure on 1H26 profit was mainly due to FX disturbances.Excluding FX gains and losses,attributable/recurring attributable NP fell by 14.95/15.20%YoY.We believe the traditional business remains resilient,while new businesses such as autonomous intelligence,automotive and high-end equipment,and new energy maintained rapid growth.As the impact from FX gains and losses diminishes and downstream business climate improves,we expect earnings of the company to recover.Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Traditional business remained resilient
By business,for 1H26,tool business revenue was RMB2,076mn(+0.25%YoY).Revenue growth slowed mainly due to weak downstream industry demand and channel inventory rebalancing,while the company delivered resilient growth by expanding Japanese and leading domestic customers,advancing lithium-ion and cordless new products,and providing local delivery overseas.Home appliance business revenue was RMB2,203mn(-3.32%YoY).Although industry volume was under pressure,the company saw smooth expansion of high-value-added products such as overseas commercial kitchen products,AI thermostats,and floor scrubbers.Automotive and high-end equipment revenue increased by 11.09%YoY to RMB604mn,with ongoing expansion in LiDAR motors,charging infrastructure,industrial and robotic components,and liquid cooling/power supply products for AI data centers.New energy revenue increased by 21.02%YoY to RMB583mn,benefiting from global energy storage demand growth and the improvement of product matrix including BMS,PCS,and EMS.Autonomous intelligence revenue increased by 170.28%YoY to RMB342mn,of which cloud storage and cloud charging revenue increased by 205.92%YoY to RMB271mn,as scaled delivery of products accelerated the release of the second growth curve.
FX losses suppressed profitability
For 1H26,blended GPM fell by 2.85pp YoY to 19.69%,mainly due to higher price centers for key commodities and battery cells,fluctuations in raw material supply,and the ramp-up stage of overseas facilities and new businesses.Expense control improved,with sales/administrative/R&D expense ratios down by 0.36/0.67/0.83pp YoY to 3.65/3.37/7.54%.Financial expense ratio rose by 2.73pp YoY to 2.03%,mainly due to FX losses.R&D investment was RMB494mn,accounting for 8.50%of revenue,as the company focused on innovation areas such as AI applications,robotics,motors,complete machines,and automotive products.We expect profitability to recover as FX risk management measures take effect,utilization rates of overseas bases improve,and the share of high-value-added products rises.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
As FX losses weigh on profit,we lower our 2026/2027/2028 attributable NP forecasts by 21/1/3%to RMB386/616/719mn from previous RMB488/622/740mn.We project 2026/2027/2028 EPS of RMB0.30/0.49/0.57.Considering the company's leading position in intelligent controllers and growth potential in new scenarios such as autonomous intelligence,robotics,and AI data centers,we value the stock at 40x 2026E PE,above its peers'average of 31.06x based on iFinD consensus.Our target price is RMB12.09(previous:RMB13.70,based on 35x 2026E PE).Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Risks:sharp increases in upstream component prices,weaker-than-we-expected demand for intelligent controllers,and slower-than-we-expected capacity expansion.
