香港, 2024年8月27日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) — 8月22日，瑞声科技（02018）在香港举行2024中期业绩发布会，交出了一张十分亮眼的成绩单。财报显示，2024年上半年，瑞声科技营收为人民币112.5亿元，创上市以来新高，收入同比增长22.0%，毛利率为21.5%，同比提升7.4个百分点。净利润为人民币5.37亿元，同比大幅增长257.3%。其中，去年宣布收购的PSS公司，上半年并表收入为人民币15亿元左右，毛利率为25.0%左右。瑞声科技CFO郭丹在访谈时表示，2024年上半年瑞声科技各业务线都取得了积极进展，盈利能力显着提升，毛利率持续增长。更重要的是，中期业绩的表现，蕴含着公司通过战略转型所带来的未来增长价值，预计今年集团（不含PSS）业务收入较去年提升15%。此外，PSS公司并表会带来30亿左右贡献。综合来看，2024年全集团营收预计同比增长超30%，毛利率在22%-25%区间。未来1-2年将受益AI手机升级放量中期业绩发布会上，AI手机是重点话题之一。对此，郭丹认为，AI手机目前还处于起步阶段，功能从软件端提升推动硬件的升级，已经看到声学、结构件、麦克风等产品品类在出货量、ASP整体提升的态势，未来随着AI手机的发展和功能的进一步体现，预计硬件会在未来几年持续提升。“AI手机有很大的想象空间，未来1-2年会看到一些变化，3-5年变化加速，这给我们带来了很多机会，对多产品线有驱动作用。”郭丹举例称，硬件端比如折叠机、超薄机型形态带来了新的趋势，公司独有的创新扬声器，及扬声器和马达二合一产品，可以更好的满足市场需求。另外，AI手机的功耗较高，需要更好的散热方案，而瑞声科技从材料端，到精益的制程工艺、仿真设计方面都具有行业领先优势。此外，AI手机人机交互需求提升，需要更精确的语音指令等功能，会进一步推动公司MEMS麦克风升规升配，驱动价格、利润率的提升。今年全集团综合毛利率预计提升至22%-25%郭丹透露，随着下半年更多新机发布的季节性影响，业绩表现会比上半年更强劲，预计全年（不包含PSS）业务较去年将实现15%以上的提升，其中PSS并表将带来30亿左右贡献。2024年全集团营收预计同比增长超30%，综合毛利率也将从上半年的21.5%，进一步提升到22%-25%区间。“整个行业从去年下半年开始，进入了升规、升配的健康态势，公司无论在声学、光学、结构件等各方面，ASP跟整体利润率都有提升。”郭丹表示，尤其车载方面，未来中长期将呈现稳健的增长态势。“可以说AAC现在是有多个增长引擎、多个平台的解决方案的公司，对未来几年的整体增长预估，我们保持积极的心态。”声学业务未来将超100亿规模，构建全场景用户体验郭丹表示，瑞声科技声学业务的毛利率，已经回到了健康的增长轨道。上半年毛利率是29.9%，全年会回升到30%以上。“公司管理层在中期业绩发布会上也提到，瑞声科技原来只是电子消费类的微型声学供应商，通过PSS的购并，进一步构建了全用户全场景体验的行业标准，声学的解决方案会成为下一步声学业务的重要增长动力。这个从规模来看，声学业务类别是公司第一个超过百亿规模，而且未来的5年能够看到200亿规模的一个重要的业务产品线，在30%以上的毛利率是可以持续的。”多个重要客户WLG项目获确定性进展在光学业务方面，郭丹认为，光学市场从几年前相对竞争的态势，进入到了良性的发展期间。公司上半年光学毛利率约5%，其中塑胶镜头毛利率16-17%。6P及以上中高规格镜头出货量占比15%-16%，下半年预计在15-20%之间。“按照价值量来讲，已经在30%甚至35%以上，这体现了我们的技术能力、客户的覆盖率及认可度。”郭丹透露，瑞声科技下半年光学毛利水平将进一步修复。“单季度利润变成正向利润水平是可以预见的，大概率会在四季度出现，整体盈利水平比去年有一个非常大的利润修复，未来还会持续稳健增长。”“尤其是G+P玻塑混合镜头和WLG镜片产品，在多个重要客户的重要项目，也已经获得确定性进展。”郭丹表示，现在行业普遍认为G+P玻塑混合镜头确实是一个更好的解决方案。公司独有的WLG技术在手机、车载等领域都有应用，是一个多领域价值创造的技术。“明年G+P玻塑镜头和WLG单镜片，在很多客户的交货，会逐步像我们对WLG技术投资的预期一样，成为整个光学业务中最重要的技术和价值支撑之一。”中期业绩表现蕴含公司未来长期增长价值“从今年上半年来看，传动和触觉业务随着安卓端的产品组合优化升级，目前毛利率已经在30%左右，未来将继续维持健康水平。”郭丹表示，该板块未来在马达和传动等新产品发展的助推下，有望回到高增长的态势。“公司管理层在中期业绩发布会上也提到, 在散热产品方面，瑞声科技今年上半年达到了1.5亿元的规模，毛利率也在30%以上。随着AI带来的发展应用，未来规模有望超过10亿元。而跟精密结构件组合起来，则整体规模可达50亿元，长远来看甚至100亿元以上。”“另外，传感器和半导体业务下半年的毛利会继续整体提升。”郭丹表示，未来两到三年内，随着AI手机带来的价值提升，以及公司资源平台带来的优势，自研产品渗透率的提升等因素的推动，传感器和半导体业务线有望得到快速发展。郭丹强调，“中期业绩发布会上管理层也提到，这次的业绩让投资人看到AAC通过战略转型，阶段性的实现了收入的增长，以及毛利和纯利的提升，但更重要的是，中期业绩的表现蕴含着各大业务线未来的长期增长价值，更希望大家关注长期增长的确定性。” Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Aug 27, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - On August 22, Wuling Motors (0305.HK) released its 2024 interim results. For the first half of the year, Wuling Motors reported total revenue of RMB 3.946 billion, with a gross profit margin of 10.8%, up about 270 basis points from 8.1% in the same period of 2023. The profit for the period was RMB 21.125 million, representing a 72.3% year-on-year increase.Despite intensified market competition and pressures from industry transformation, the automobile sector showed an overall upward trend in the first half of the year. From January to June, revenue in China's automotive industry reached RMB 4.767 trillion, reflecting a 5% year-on-year increase. The growth in vehicle production and sales also improved profitability for upstream industry chain companies. Wuling Motors' latest results are notably strong.Steady Profit Growth and Synergistic Development Across Three Major SectorsWuling Motors primarily offers commercial vehicles, automotive power systems, and automotive parts. Benefiting from the robust development of the global automotive industry chain, these three major sectors have advanced in tandem, driving revenue and profit growth for Wuling Motors.Breaking down the performance of each sector:1/ Automotive Power Systems: By focusing on upgrading traditional fuel vehicle engines and developing new energy power systems, Wuling Motors has maintained its established customer base while securing new orders for high-efficiency and cost-effective HEV hybrid assemblies. This approach combines traditional power technology upgrades with new energy power integration. In the first half of the year, revenue reached RMB 902 million, with casting product sales totaling 515,000 units, up 26.2% from the same period in 2023.2/ Automotive Parts: Wuling Motors has continued mass production of key NEV components such as electric drive axles, motors, and electronic controls, achieving breakthroughs in both products and customer acquisition. In the first half of the year, sales to new customers amounted to RMB 1.042 billion, accounting for 38.6% of the total revenue in this segment. The share of revenue from customers outside SGMW increased to 38.6%. Various new energy electric axles have been used in projects for Great Wall Motor, JAC, and BAIC Qingdao. The first commercialized electric drive coaxial axle for the Changan Kaicheng market has already entered mass production. Wuling Motors' parts products are gradually moving toward mid-to-high-end markets, capturing trends in high-end and intelligent products, and expanding its diverse customer base, supporting further performance growth.3/ Sales and Manufacturing of Commercial Vehicles: Following last year's restructuring and strategic adjustments, Wuling Motors' commercial vehicle business has expanded into international markets and promoted new products. Currently, NEVs such as logistics vehicles, sightseeing buses, and patrol vehicles have been exported to countries including Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, the United States, and Australia. In 2024, the company's global expansion continued with its first export to Egypt, delivering 200 vehicles. As Wuling Motors accelerates the development of new energy and intelligent products, it creates new growth opportunities for commercial vehicle revenue, contributing to overall performance growth.Each sector shows varying degrees of success, and Wuling Motors' continued optimization of product structure, commitment to technological innovation, and cost control measures have established stable profitability.Notably, the synergy between the commercial vehicle, automotive power system, and automotive parts sectors has created significant benefits along the industry chain. With factories in Guangxi, Shandong, Chongqing, and Hubei, Wuling Motors now has an annual production capacity of over 2 million sets of automotive parts. The Jingmen Base, dedicated to supporting Great Wall Motor, generated RMB 333 million in revenue in the first half of the year, with promising future potential. The combination of industry chain and technological advantages enables Wuling Motors to maintain leadership in product quality, cost, and scale, providing strong brand competitiveness and resilience through industry cycles.Creating new high quality productive forces and accelerating overseas expansionNew energy, exports, and intelligence are emerging as key drivers of performance for China's automotive industry chain. Strengthening China's new energy vehicle industry chain is closely linked to enhancing productive forces with higher quality.In the context of balancing energy security and achieving "dual carbon" goals, coupled with policies promoting large-scale vehicle trade-ins to stimulate automotive consumption, the new energy vehicle market is showing steady growth and increasingly high-quality development.According to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), from January to June 2024, production and sales of new energy vehicles reached 4.929 million and 4.944 million units, respectively, marking a year-on-year increase of 30.1% and 32%. Domestic sales totaled 4.339 million units, up 35.1% year-on-year; exports were 605,000 units, up 13.2%. The total sales of new energy vehicles in China for 2024 are expected to reach 11.5 million units, indicating strong growth momentum.Wuling Motors is continuously strengthening its layout in the new energy sector across its three main business segments. In the long term, this will provide sustained new growth driver for its performance. From the current customer group perspective, Wuling Motors has accumulated a sufficient number of new energy customers. In addition to major client SGMW, there are well-established new energy automotive companies or emerging companies such as Great Wall, Chery, Geely, Foton, and Hozon. Furthermore, Wuling Motors is actively implementing a diversified customer policy and achieving outstanding results. For example, in the first half of the year, its independently developed new energy parts products made significant breakthroughs in securing overseas clients, successfully completing the development and supply of rear drive axle assemblies and driving system assemblies for the first new energy passenger car exported to Vietnam. As automotive enterprises expand their production and sales targets in 2024 compared to last year, this will undoubtedly create growth opportunities and drive comprehensive business growth for Wuling Motors.Furthermore, the new energy vehicle industry will inevitably move towards high-quality development. Recently, the profit margins in the automotive industry have shown a downward trend. However, a positive change this year is that several automotive enterprises have exited the "price war" and are focusing more on the business quality. As the automotive industry enters a phase of healthy development, the whole industry chain is expected to move toward common prosperity, and Wuling Motors' profitability is likely to further improve.In addition, Wuling Motors is actively striving to expand internationally and seize overseas development opportunities. In March of this year, Wuling Motors established an innovation center in Hong Kong. It is understood that the vision of the Wuling Motors Innovation Center is to be based in Hong Kong, leverage resources from the mainland China, and serve a global market. Its business includes forward-looking R&D, parts development, automotive intelligence and digital services, international sales services, and industrial incubation.The establishment of this innovation center will effectively enhance Wuling Motors' technological strength and product competitiveness. As Hong Kong serves as an excellent window for the mainland China to expand its new energy business overseas, Wuling Motors will be able to more efficiently reap the benefits of global market development, drive the growth of related companies' overseas sales of new energy vehicles, and achieve rapid improvement in its own performance.Looking ahead to the prospects of the overseas market, recent research reports indicate that in the passenger car sector, the market share of self-owned brands is gradually increasing, and the product exports is changed to capacity exports, with a high sustainable growth of export. The internationalization of China's commercial vehicles is rapidly advancing. In 2023, the total export volume of China's commercial vehicles reached 770,000 units, tripling compared to 2017.China's automobile exports, particularly commercial vehicles, are experiencing rapid growth. Recent data suggests that by 2024, China's automobile exports could reach 6 million units, representing a 15%-20% increase. Commercial vehicle exports are expected to reach 850,000 units, with a 15% growth rate. This growth indicates a significant acceleration in the internationalization of China's automotive industry, providing Wuling Motors with more opportunities to secure vehicle and core component orders, thereby boosting its performance to a new level.Summary:In summary, Wuling Motors exhibited robust business performance in the first half of this year, and its strategic layout is steadily progressing, which will continue to yield operation outcome.This year marks a significant moment for the development of new energy vehicles in China. In July, the monthly retail sales penetration rate of domestic new energy passenger cars exceeded that of traditional fuel vehicles for the first time, indicating that new energy vehicles have truly become mainstream. Moreover, Wuling Motors has accumulated ample industry experience, a solid customer group, and technological strength. As a result, its new energy layout and future potential will gain market recognition. Transitioning from the era of fuel vehicles to that of new energy vehicles, Wuling Motors is experiencing a leap in its intrinsic value. Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
