Core Viewpoint - First Shanghai maintains a "buy" rating for China Shenhua (601088) and projects net profit for the parent company to be 58.8 billion, 58.7 billion, and 58.9 billion yuan for 2025-2027, with a target price of 47.7 HKD. The company's Q3 performance significantly outperformed the industry average, highlighting its leading position and competitive advantages. The completion of asset injections is expected to greatly enhance the company's business scale and strengthen its "coal-electricity integration" model, improving overall synergy and risk resistance, thus opening new avenues for long-term valuation enhancement [1]. Group 1 - The overall performance met expectations, showing positive signals of improvement. Due to the oversupply in the coal industry, the company's revenue for the first three quarters was 213.15 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 16.6%, and net profit was 41.37 billion yuan, down 13.8% year-on-year. In Q3 alone, revenue was 75.04 billion yuan, down 13.1% year-on-year, and net profit was 14.66 billion yuan, down 11.8% year-on-year, but showed a quarter-on-quarter improvement, indicating that profitability may have bottomed out and begun to recover [2]. Group 2 - The coal sector faced a decline in both volume and price, but the company's cost control demonstrated its strength. Coal sales volume for the first three quarters was 316.5 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 8.4%. In Q3, the production volume was 86 million tons, and sales volume was 112 million tons, indicating some destocking or coal trade activities. The dual pressure of slowing demand and price corrections in the domestic coal market in 2025 directly led to a decline in coal sales revenue. However, the company maintained a unit production cost of 164.4 yuan per ton, down 3.1% year-on-year, showcasing its refined management and internal efficiency, which are key sources of profitability resilience [3]. Group 3 - The electricity and other non-coal sectors showed counter-cyclical growth, demonstrating significant integrated synergy effects. The electricity business benefited from a 7.8% year-on-year decrease in fuel costs due to falling coal prices, leading to a notable improvement in profitability, with gross margin rising by 3.2 percentage points year-on-year. This exemplifies the internal hedging mechanism of the integrated model, where falling coal prices negatively impact coal sales profits but enhance the gross margin of the power generation business. The transportation business (railway and port) and coal chemical business also maintained stable or improved profitability, contributing steady profits and cash flow to the company [4].
