For 1H26,revenue/attributable net profit(NP)/recurring NP were RMB3,237/254/164mn(+0.67/-31.10/-41.16%YoY).For 2Q26,revenue was RMB1,745mn(+1.16%YoY,+16.95%QoQ),and attributable NP was RMB123mn(-45.92%YoY,-5.93%QoQ).Revenue maintained slight growth in 1H26,but profit was under clear pressure due to lower GPM and expense increases.Meanwhile,the company plans to distribute acash dividend of RMB1.0 per 10 shares,tax included.Total dividends are expected to reach RMB73.91mn,accounting for 29%of 1H26 attributable NP.Looking ahead,as property-related demand stabilizes,the company’s operations may bottom out and gradually improve thereafter.Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Revenue growth stayed resilient
For 1H26,revenue increased by 0.67%YoY,mainly benefiting from the rapid expansion of the intelligent lighting business and deeper penetration in overseas markets.Against the backdrop of overall pressure in the lighting industry,the company’s revenue showed resilience.By business,Opple iterated its Software Defined Lighting(SDL)smart spectrum technology and applied it to different scenarios,upgrading solutions across home and commercial applications.In the home segment,the company launched flagship product"Tianjing Kids"and the Shaoguang eye-care small desk lamp series,strengthening its professional eye-care lighting environment advantages.In the commercial segment,the company implemented several benchmark projects in scenarios such as commercial chains,corporate showrooms,and industrial plants.Overseas,the company made phased progress in key markets such as Southeast Asia,the Middle East,and Europe.It won bids for projects including metro lighting in Colombia and indoor large-scale sports venue lighting in Thailand,while its panel light products obtained Environmental Product Declaration(EPD)certification in Europe.
GPM declined YoY and overall expenses increased
For 1H26,GPM fell by 3.24pp YoY to 34.83%.In particular,2Q26 GPM declined markedly YoY,which we attribute to cost increases and price promotions.On expenses,the sales expense ratio rose by 1.23pp YoY to 19.45%,mainly due to increases in sales network support expenses and sales staff compensation.In addition,administrative expenses rose sharply,mainly because the company raised investment in AI technology and talent system development.Under the combined impact,attributable NPM fell by 3.63pp YoY to 7.85%in 1H26.
AI empowerment and digital transformation deepened
Although profitability was under pressure in 1H26,Opple made progress in AI empowerment and digital transformation.Focusing on core business scenarios such as solution design,project commissioning,and project operation and maintenance,the company advanced the application of AI agent tools and created three major agents:"iSolutionAgent","iLinkAgent",and"iEcoAgent".These tools form an intelligent closed loop from design and commissioning to operation and maintenance.In daily work and management,the company combined internal and external AI tools to build aunified group-level knowledge base and AI Q&A platform,improving employee access to information and collaboration efficiency.
Earnings forecasts and valuation
We lower our 2026/2027/2028 attributable NP forecasts by 12.68/12.23/13.27%to RMB851/908/960mn from RMB974/1,034/1,107mn previously.This implies EPS of RMB1.15/1.22/1.29.Wind consensus implies peers'average 2026E PE of 23x.Given the company's substantial short-term profit pressure,we value the stock at 18x 2026E PE.Our target price is RMB20.70(previous:RMB23.58,based on 18x 2026E PE).Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
