Haohua Chemical Science&Technology's(Haohua)1Q26 revenue was RMB4,231mn(+34.02%YoY,-3.58%QoQ),and attributable net profit(NP)was RMB308mn(+66.73%YoY,+44.66%QoQ).In 1Q26,the company's sales volumes of fluorocarbon chemicals/fluorinated lithium battery materials/fluoropolymers/specialty tires/specialty coatings fell by 12/36/21/47/45%QoQ,with the decline in key product sales leading to 1Q26 NP missing our forecast of RMB650mn.However,considering potential improvement in refrigerant market conditions amid tight S/D dynamics and the gradual ramp-up of the company's new production facilities,we maintain our 2026-2028 net profit forecasts and our OVERWEIGHT rating.
1Q26 NP up YoY/QoQ on revenue&profit growth across segments
Driven by the favorable business climate for refrigerants and products like lithium hexafluorophosphate,the company's fluorine chemical segment saw sales revenue increase by 40.60%YoY,gross profit rise by 69.45%YoY,and gross margin improve by 3.93pp YoY.In the electronic chemicals business,amid intensifying market competition,the company adopted avolume-for-price strategy,achieving a20.92%YoY revenue growth and 12.43%YoY gross profit growth.The high-end chemical materials segment maintained stable and improving conditions,with overall sales revenue up 5.61%YoY,gross profit up 18.28%YoY,and gross margin up 4.36pp YoY.The carbon reduction and engineering technology services segment benefited from previously signed projects,with revenue increasing by 55.50%YoY and gross profit rising by 24.56%YoY.The company's overall gross margin in 1Q26 was 23.97%,up 1.28pp YoY but down 1.47pp QoQ.
Progress in key projects to contribute incremental profits
During the reporting period,the company's key projects progressed as planned,with major projects completed and put into operation in 2025 performing well.The 26ktpa high-performance organic fluorine material project at Zhonghao Chenguang is operational,with product output steadily increasing.The polyurethane unit of the 46,600tpa dedicated new material project at Liming Research Institute has achieved acapacity utilization rate of over 75%,and the catalyst unit's products are currently meeting market demand.Phase Iof Haohua Gas's Southwest electronic specialty gas project is running at full capacity with strong sales,while construction of Phase II is progressing smoothly and is on its way to being completed and put into operation as scheduled.We believe that,supported by overall favorable conditions in the fluorine chemical industry and incremental projects,the company is poised to achieve high-quality development.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
Considering potential further improvement in refrigerant market conditions amid tight S/D dynamics and the gradual ramp-up of the company's incremental projects,we maintain our attributable NP forecast for 2026/2027/2028 at RMB2,294/2,692/3,076mn,representing growth of 59/17/14%YoY,with EPS of RMB1.78/2.09/2.38.Based on its peers'average 19x 2026E PE on Wind consensus and factoring in the favorable outlook for the company's electronic specialty gas and aviation material businesses,we assign a21x 2026E PE(previously 22x)and adjust our target price to RMB37.38(previous:RMB39.16).We reiterate our OVERWEIGHT rating.
Risks:Slower progress in new projects than we expect,intensified competition in the fluorine material market,and macro policy uncertainties.
