Summary of Coal Industry Research and Conference Call Industry Overview - The coal industry has faced significant challenges since 2013, with profits declining sharply and the industry suffering severe losses exceeding 95% by the end of 2015. Coal prices halved, leading to cash flow pressures and debt default risks, with the debt level surpassing 3 trillion RMB and debt-to-asset ratios exceeding 70% [1][2][4]. Key Points on Supply-Side Reform - The supply-side reform aimed to address existential threats to coal enterprises, including severe debt risks and potential systemic financial risks, as well as social issues like reduced worker incomes and unemployment threats [1][4]. - The reform involved eliminating outdated production capacity, controlling new capacity, and providing financial support, which included subsidies and price stabilization measures [1][8][10]. - The implementation of the 276 working days policy in 2016 forced mines to operate only 276 days a year, leading to a rapid increase in coal prices, which doubled before the policy was revoked in March 2017 [1][3][13]. Market Dynamics and Price Fluctuations - The coal industry experienced four major market fluctuations from 2016 to 2018, influenced by policies such as the 276 working days limit and import restrictions. Coal prices saw significant increases during these periods, particularly for coking coal [3][19]. - The first wave of price increases occurred from May to the end of 2016, with coal prices rising from 400 RMB to 730 RMB, driven by production cuts [19]. - Subsequent waves of price increases were noted in 2017 and early 2018, with prices reaching over 1,000 RMB during peak winter demand [19]. Financial Implications - The supply-side reform had a notable impact on coal prices and stock prices, with significant recoveries observed starting in 2016. For instance, from February to April 2016, thermal coal prices increased by 17%, and coking coal prices rose by 30% [14][15]. - By 2020, over 1 billion tons of outdated capacity had been eliminated, representing 20% of the total capacity as of the end of 2015, which improved overall industry efficiency and safety [9][21]. Regional Challenges - The Shanxi region faced unique challenges, including a heavier personnel burden compared to other major coal-producing areas, which exacerbated its losses [5][6]. - In Shaanxi, companies like Shaanxi Coal and Chemical Industry Group experienced severe price drops, with prices as low as 165 RMB, while still facing operational difficulties [6]. Future Outlook - The current market outlook suggests that future trends will continue to be influenced by supply-demand dynamics and policy adjustments. The implementation of anti-involution measures is expected to stabilize supply and enhance overall profitability [22][23]. - Recommendations include focusing on coking coal companies and large leading enterprises with dividend potential, such as China Coal and Shenhua, anticipating a significant rebound in the coking coal sector [22][23].
