Seeking Further Expansion and Building a Diversified Product System

Considering the dynamics of the automotive industry as well as the future development trends and competition of the gear industry, the Company has established the concentric diversification development strategy. Specifically, the Company focuses on high-precision gear transmission, seizes the opportunities brought by the booming new energy vehicle market and shift from manual gearboxes to automatic gearboxes and new energy transmission systems of commercial vehicles, and vigorously expands business in such areas as robot joints and people's livelihood.

First, in terms of gears for Intelligent execution mechanism, in 2023 the Company relied on its holding subsidiary Huanqu Technology, the robust design capabilities of its sub-subsidiary Santohno Intelligent Transmission Co., Ltd. and the operation and manufacturing capabilities of its parent company to actively invest in the R&D of injection molding, related composite material gears and small assemblies. It successively increased its market share in smart home, vehicle-mounted components and other fields, especially in the sweeper industry, which is expected to contribute to the Company's stable and sustained performance growth in the future.

Second, in terms of robotic reducer, the Company's subsidiary Fine-Motion Tech has, relying on its R&D and batch delivery capabilities in precision robotic reducers, continuously increased its market share in the domestic RV reducer market. Moreover, it has successfully supplied harmonic reducers.

Investment Thesis

Shuanghuan Driveline is a pacesetter in the domestic automotive gear industry and robotic RV reducer industry. By leveraging its advantages in capacity, management, R&D and customer base, the Company has seized the opportunities for upgrading brought by gear outsourcing and high industry barriers as a result of the booming new energy vehicle industry. Looking forward, the Company is expected to continuously benefit from the boom of new energy passenger vehicles, expansion of the industrial chains of automatic gearboxes of commercial vehicles, and rapid development of robotic reducers and gears for daily use.

As for valuation, we expected diluted EPS of the Company to RMB1.22/1.53/1.89 of 2024/2025/2026. And we accordingly gave the target price to RMB32.1, respectively 26.3/21/17x P/E for 2024/2025/2026. "Accumulate" rating. (Closing price as at 5 November)
