Product-Mix Optimization Fueled Robust Profit Growth
发布时间:2026-08-21 来源:华泰证券
Sino-Platinum Metals has reported 1H26 revenue of RMB22,652mn (-23.36% YoY), an attributable NP of RMB350mn (+7.63% YoY), and a recurring attributable NP of RMB329mn (+12.75% YoY). The revenue decline was due to the company’s adjustment of its business mix, compressing the scale of trading and low-margin refining businesses; profit growth was driven by a higher share of high-margin products and growth in processing-fee income. Looking ahead, as high-end segments such as semiconductor materials and biomedical materials ramp up and the secondary resource-recycling system improves, the company’s earnings quality should continue improving. Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Strides made in high-end materials
The company continues to advance its ‘3815’ strategy, focusing on the businesses of precious-metal new materials manufacturing and resource recycling. By segment, the precious-metal new materials manufacturing segment generated revenue of RMB7,997mn, of which biomedical materials revenue grew by 69.60% YoY, with order sales revenue from three major product categories—medical contrast rings, electrode components, and precision wire—growing by nearly 2x YoY. In the semiconductor field, evaporation materials, sputtering targets, and bonding-wire materials are deeply tied to leading customers, with ultra-fine bonding gold wire achieving domestic substitution. On resource recycling, Guiyan Resources recovered 10.00 tonnes of platinum group metals, 5.59 tonnes of gold, and 822.00 tonnes of silver, with Guiyan-brand platinum and palladium becoming delivery brands on the Guangzhou Futures Exchange, and the company’s share of the Shandong precious-metal recycling market continuing to expand. As the development for recycling of electronic waste, new-energy batteries, and retired PV modules materialize during the 15th Five-Year Plan period, the company’s ability to security resources should be enhanced further.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
Considering the ramp-up of high-end segments such as semiconductor materials and biomedical materials, and the potential development of secondary resource recycling that could enhance the company’s resource security capability, we maintain our earnings forecasts, estimating 2026/2027/2028 attributable NP of RMB723/813/900mn, with EPS of RMB0.88/0.99/1.09. We adopt an SOTP valuation method, forecasting that precious-metal product trading/precious-metal materials each contribute 50% of gross profit in 2026, with 2026E EPS of RMB0.44/0.44. Given that comparable companies trade at average 2026 PEs of 16.11x/35.40x on iFinD consensus, we assign 2026E PEs of 16.11x/35.40x for precious-metal product trading/precious-metal materials, deriving our target price of RMB22.66 (previous: RMB23.47, on 2026E 15.23x/38.11x PE). Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Risks: Commodity price swings; continued decline in automotive catalyst demand; semiconductor material customer adoption falling short of our expectations; secondary resource recycling channel construction below our expectations.
