2Q26 GPM Rose YoY and QoQ
发布时间:2026-09-09 来源:华泰证券
1H26 revenue came in at RMB2,070mn(-6.2%YoY),and attributable net profit(NP)rose by 2.9%YoY to RMB410mn.For 2Q26,revenue came in at RMB1,190mn(-7.5/+33.9%YoY/QoQ),attributable NP increased by 14.2%YoY and 75.0%QoQ to RMB260mn,and recurring net profit came in at RMB210mn(-0.3/+32.2%YoY/QoQ).Recurring NP improved QoQ in 2Q26,which we attribute mainly to higher shipment volume in 2Q26 and rising shipments of tapered roller bearing(TRB)main bearings.We are positive on the rising penetration of TRB bearings.As aleader in wind power bearings,the company has notable first-mover advantages and is also expanding into gearbox bearings and wind tower flanges,which we believe are likely to become new earnings growth drivers.Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
2Q26 GPM improved YoY and QoQ
For 2Q26,revenue declined YoY,mainly due to ahigh base from the installation rush in the same period last year and delays in the progress of some projects this year.Backed by rising shipments of TRB main bearings,GPM increased YoY and QoQ.For 2Q26,GPM was 30.2%(+0.4/+1.2pp YoY/QoQ).The overall expense ratio was 10.4%(+1.9pp YoY),with the R&D expense ratio at 6.3%(+2.3pp YoY),which we attribute mainly to higher R&D investment in new products such as offshore main bearings,gearbox bearings,and flanges.
Wind turbine bearing profitability recovered
For 1H26,revenue from wind power bearings and supporting products came in at RMB1,820mn(-1.2%YoY),accounting for 87.6%of total revenue.GPM was 31.2%(+0.7pp YoY).As of end-1H26,inventory was RMB1,699mn,up 7.4%from end-1Q26,mainly due to higher production stocking based on orders.Construction in progress was RMB469mn,up 63.4%from end-1Q26,mainly due to increases in new production line plants and related equipment.According to the National Energy Administration,China added 47.07GW of new wind power capacity in 7M26(-12%YoY),with new installations of 13.57/8.45GW in June/July(+145/+271%YoY).We expect installation demand recovery and the company's inventory increase to support product deliveries going ahead.
Large-MW bearing production capacity expansion on track
The company is raising the share of high-value products.While consolidating its advantages in wind power main bearings,yaw bearings,and pitch bearings,it is also expanding into new businesses such as wind tower flanges and gearbox bearings.The company plans to raise no more than RMB1,500mn via private placement,mainly for the construction of 6MW-and-above high-power wind power main bearings,yaw and pitch bearings,and wind tower flanges,as well as working capital replenishment.The related application was approved by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange on 30 June and is pending registration approval from the CSRC.For gearbox bearings,the company has completed prototype verification and small-batch supply for multiple gearbox manufacturers.As capacity ramps up and customer verification progresses,capacity utilization is likely to rise as orders increase.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
Considering slower progress in some domestic wind power projects,we lower our shipment assumptions and cut our 2026/2027/2028 attributable NP forecasts by 11.88/7.54/5.58%to RMB1,064/1,331/1,508mn,implying athree-year CAGR of 22.60%and EPS of RMB2.57/3.21/3.64.We value the stock at 12.52x 2026E PE,in line with its peers'average on Wind consensus.As peers trade at alower average valuation multiple and the company's large market exposure may make it constrained by slowed demand growth,we revise down our target price to RMB32.18(previous:RMB55.48,based on 19x 2026E PE).Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Risks:raw material cost volatility,product price volatility,market development falling short/capacity ramp-up falling short of our expectations.
