Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Positive" and maintained [10] Core Viewpoints - The report emphasizes the potential for coal prices to rebound due to the "anti-involution" policy, which is expected to lead to actual production cuts and improve coal prices. The analysis is based on the mean reversion of return on equity (ROE) and the reasonable profit distribution levels of thermal coal and coking coal within their respective industrial chains [2][6][8] Summary by Sections Introduction - The "anti-involution" policy has catalyzed significant increases in coal commodities and equity prices. The report highlights the importance of understanding the future space for coal under this policy, particularly following the State Energy Administration's notice regarding coal mine production inspections [6][18] ROE Perspective - The report calculates the expected central price levels for thermal coal and coking coal based on historical average ROE. The central price for thermal coal is estimated at 749 CNY/ton, which is 96 CNY/ton higher than the price of 653 CNY/ton on July 25, 2025 (+14.7%). For coking coal, the central price is estimated at 1838 CNY/ton, which is 158 CNY/ton higher than the July 25 price of 1680 CNY/ton (+9.4%) [6][34][35] Industry Chain Perspective - The report assesses the reasonable price levels for thermal coal and coking coal based on profit distribution in the coal-electricity and coal-steel industrial chains. It estimates that the reasonable price for thermal coal could be between 776 CNY/ton and 835 CNY/ton, reflecting potential increases of 18.9% and 27.9% respectively from current prices. For coking coal, the reasonable price could range from 1707 CNY/ton to 2094 CNY/ton, with corresponding increases of 1.6% to 24.7% [7][44][45] Investment Recommendations - The report suggests that there is still room for price-to-book (PB) mean reversion, indicating a favorable investment ratio for coal stocks. It recommends focusing on short-term rebounds and long-term reversal opportunities in the coal sector. Specific stock recommendations include: 1. Elastic stocks: Lu'an Environmental Energy, Pingmei Shenma, Huaibei Mining, Shanxi Coking Coal, Yanzhou Coal, Jinkong Coal, and Shanmei International 2. Long-term stable profit leaders: China Coal Energy (A+H), China Shenhua (A+H), and Shaanxi Coal and Chemical 3. Transition growth stocks: Electric Power Investment Energy and New Energy [8][50][52]

Core Viewpoint - The coal sector in Hong Kong is experiencing a strong performance, with Mongolian Coal rising nearly 11% amid a recovery in coal prices and positive supply-side policy expectations [1] Group 1: Company Performance - Mongolian Coal (00975.HK) increased by 10.95% [1] - Yanzhou Coal Mining (01171.HK) rose by 4.88% [1] - Nanshan Resources (01229.HK) saw a gain of 3.70% [1] Group 2: Market Dynamics - According to CITIC Securities, the recovery in coal prices is driving positive sentiment in the sector [1] - The sector is expected to enter a new round of opportunities due to the resonance of supply and demand expectations [1]

Core Viewpoint - The recent policy from the National Energy Administration aims to regulate coal production, with expectations of reduced output in the future, impacting coal prices and production levels in the industry [2][3][6]. Production Regulation - The policy focuses on coal mines in eight provinces, including Shanxi and Inner Mongolia, with a specific emphasis on monitoring production against announced capacities for 2024 and the first half of 2025 [2]. - The notification is a reiteration of previous standards established in 2021, indicating a long-term regulatory approach rather than a new initiative [2]. - Current data shows that there has not been widespread overproduction at the provincial level, although individual companies may still exhibit imbalances [2][4]. - The enforcement of this policy will be closely monitored, particularly as it relates to the responsibilities of safety supervision agencies [5]. Production Impact - Current estimates suggest that overproduction in Shanxi, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Xinjiang could reach approximately 200 million tons, with a significant portion attributed to Xinjiang [6]. - The coal production growth rate from July 2024 to June 2025 is projected at 4.8%, indicating a high production level even without considering overproduction management [6]. Price Trends - Since June, there has been a recovery in coal prices, with thermal coal and coking coal prices increasing by approximately 6% and 17%, respectively [7]. - Factors contributing to the price increase include seasonal demand, inventory replenishment in the steel sector, a significant drop in imports, and a slowdown in production growth [8]. - The supply-demand balance is expected to shift from a loose state to a tighter one in the second half of the year [9]. Industry Outlook - The coal sector is anticipated to experience a valuation recovery due to changing expectations, with a focus on companies that exhibit high elasticity and low valuations [10]. - The current regulatory approach differs from past supply-side reforms, suggesting a more measured strategy that allows for gradual adjustments in the coal industry [10]. Key Companies - Relevant companies in the coal industry include China Coal Energy (601898), Yancoal Australia (03668), Yanzhou Coal Mining (600188), China Shenhua Energy (601088), and China Qinfa (00866) [11].

Core Insights - The report highlights a significant decline in coal production in China's central and eastern regions, with projections indicating a potential exit of approximately 700 million tons of production by 2035, particularly in Shanxi province, which is expected to see the most pronounced decrease [3][4] - The shift in China's coal production focus from the central to the western regions is evident, with the share of production from the central and eastern regions (including Northeast) decreasing by 26% since 2004 [3] - The report emphasizes the limited economically extractable coal reserves in China, with confirmed and credible reserves totaling 2,185.7 billion tons as of the end of 2023, suggesting a potential extraction period of only about 30 years at the current production rate [3][12] Section Summaries 1. Limited Economically Extractable Coal Reserves - China's coal resources are abundant, but the economically extractable reserves are relatively scarce, with a significant portion of reserves located in the western regions [12][13] - The distribution of coal reserves is uneven, with the western regions holding approximately 66% of the total reserves, while the central and eastern regions account for only 28% and 6%, respectively [22][25] - The development of coal reserves in the central and eastern regions faces increasing challenges due to various factors, including deeper mining depths and ecological constraints [33] 2. Declining Coal Production in Central and Eastern Regions - The lifecycle of coal mines typically exhibits a pattern of initial ramp-up, stable production, and a sharp decline in later stages, with the central region's production expected to decrease significantly [2][4] - New coal mines are predominantly being established in the western regions, indicating limited potential for resource development in the central and eastern areas [4][5] - The report notes that the production capacity in key mining areas is rapidly depleting, with challenges in capacity succession becoming more pronounced [4][5] 3. Assessment of Decline Trends and Impacts - The central region, particularly Shanxi, is projected to see an accelerated decline in coal production, with an estimated exit of around 700 million tons by 2035 [4][5] - The report identifies that the consumption rate of coal resources in core mining areas is high, leading to challenges in maintaining production capacity [4][5] - The market for coal mining rights is becoming increasingly competitive, with state-owned enterprises facing structural disadvantages in resource acquisition [4][5] 4. Investment Recommendations - In light of the declining coal production trends in the central and eastern regions, the report suggests focusing on companies with long service life and abundant coal resources in these areas, such as Xinjie Energy and Huaibei Mining [4] - Companies with resources in the Jinshan-Mongolia region or those prioritizing resource acquisition in western Xinjiang are also recommended, including China Shenhua and Shaanxi Coal [4] - The report highlights the potential for asset injections from state-owned enterprises, suggesting that companies like Yanzhou Coal and China Shenhua may benefit from such developments [4]
