Haohua Chemical Science&Technology(Haohua)released its 1H26 results:1H26 revenue was RMB9,690mn(+24.87%YoY),attributable net profit(NP)was RMB901mn(+39.78%YoY),and recurring NP was RMB886mn(+43.09%YoY).For 2Q26,revenue was RMB5,459mn(+18.59%YoY,+29.02%QoQ),and attributable NP was RMB593mn(+28.96%YoY,+92.49%QoQ).The company's 2Q26 attributable NP was broadly in line with our forecast of RMB580mn.We maintain our 2026-2028 earnings forecasts,but raise our valuation multiple given the company's positioning in electronic specialty gases and electronic-grade PTFE materials.Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Profits along all segments improved overall
In 1H26,the high-end fluorine materials segment achieved sales revenue of RMB6,179mn(+32.89%YoY),gross profit up 51.60%YoY,and gross margin up 2.79pp YoY,driven by the upward cycle in fluorocarbon chemicals,improved supply-demand dynamics in fluoropolymers,and growing demand for lithium battery materials—making it the engine behind the company's earnings growth.The electronic chemicals segment achieved sales revenue of RMB665mn(+15.70%YoY),gross profit up 25.70%YoY,and gross margin up 2.25pp YoY,driven by downstream demand growth and capacity release.The high-end manufacturing chemical materials segment achieved sales revenue of RMB1,476mn,broadly flat YoY,with gross profit up 8.81%YoY and gross margin up 4.30pp YoY due to an optimized product mix.The carbon reduction and engineering technology services segment achieved sales revenue of RMB1,154mn(+27.61%YoY),but segment gross profit and gross margin declined YoY due to profitability pressure in traditional engineering fields.In 1H26,the company's overall gross margin increased by 1.00pp YoY to 24.53%,and the overall expense ratio decreased by 2.0pp YoY to 11.3%.
Key projects being implemented
During the reporting period,the company's key construction projects continued to advance as planned,with plans to push trial production,completion acceptance,or mechanical handover for projects including integrated circuit etching gases,fluorinated fine chemicals,hydrogen peroxide,and clean energy catalytic materials between August and December 2026.Additionally,a new 1,000tpa aviation coatings project is under construction.The company continues to advance import substitution of high-end manufacturing materials:the B737NG domestically produced aviation tire achieved its first installation trial on aircraft of China's three major airlines,and the company signed an exclusive supply contract with China Southern Airlines for C909 domestically produced tires.In marine coatings,it completed the first coating application on a300,000-tonne VLCC.In 1H26,the company's new product sales revenue was RMB3,301mn(+9%YoY),with new product profit of RMB439mn(+23%YoY).During the year,28 new products including environmentally friendly fluororubber and specialty functional coatings were launched,adding RMB256mn in revenue and RMB35mn in profit.With incremental projects reaching full capacity and the expansion of high-end material application scenarios,the company's medium-to-long-term growth foundation could be further consolidated,in our view.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
We maintain our 2026/2027/2028 attributable NP forecasts at RMB2,294/2,692/3,076mn,representing growth of 59/17/14%YoY,with EPS of RMB1.78/2.09/2.38.Referencing the comparable companies'average 31x 2026E PE on Wind consensus,and considering the company's positioning in electronic specialty gases and electronic-grade PTFE materials,we assign a35x 2026E PE,corresponding to atarget price of RMB62.3(previous:RMB37.38,based on 21x 2026E PE).Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Risks:Slower progress in new projects than we expect,intensified competition in the fluorine material market,and macro policy uncertainties.
