Core Viewpoint - Jinzi Ham Co., Ltd. is planning a share transfer that may involve a change in control, leading to a temporary suspension of its stock trading. The company has struggled to meet performance commitments since its founder sold shares in 2021, and recent profit increases have been attributed to asset sales rather than core business growth [1][11]. Financial Performance - In 2024, Jinzi Ham achieved revenue of 344 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 9.62%, and net profit of 62.17 million yuan, up 55.19% from the previous year. However, the non-recurring net profit fell to 23.55 million yuan, a decline of 27.70% [2][3]. - The increase in net profit was primarily due to the sale of a 12.2807% stake in Zhejiang Yindun Cloud Technology Co., Ltd. for 428 million yuan, contributing an additional 26.26 million yuan to net profit [3]. Investment Strategy - Jinzi Ham has a history of diversifying into various sectors since 2013, including rare earths, banking, e-commerce, health, and new energy vehicles. However, many of these ventures have not been successful, leading to performance issues [1][6]. - The company has made significant investments in the AI and computing sectors, but faced challenges in achieving performance targets set in investment agreements with Yindun Cloud, which has struggled financially [4][5]. Market Position and Challenges - The company's core products, particularly ham and specialty meat products, have seen declining gross margins for four consecutive years, with ham's margin at 26.14% and specialty meat's at 7.67% in 2024 [14][15]. - Jinzi Ham is attempting to capture the young consumer market by launching innovative products, but its pre-prepared food offerings have been limited and are still in the trial phase [16][17]. Future Outlook - The company plans to enhance its product offerings and improve profitability through capital operations and market expansion, particularly in e-commerce and international markets [15][16]. - Despite the challenges, Jinzi Ham aims to develop new products and optimize its operations to recover from declining margins and improve overall performance [15][16].
