Group 1: Capital Movements - Early investors Sequoia Capital are planning to reduce their holdings by up to 2%, potentially cashing out approximately 350 million yuan at the current closing price, marking their sixth round of reductions [1][2]. - Sequoia Capital has cumulatively cashed out nearly 1.86 billion yuan over six rounds of reductions since 2021, with their current holding dropping to a historical low of 6.66% if the latest reduction is fully executed [2]. Group 2: Financial Performance - Yirui Technology has experienced a decline in profits for three consecutive years, with projected revenue of 1.831 billion yuan in 2024 (down 1.74% year-on-year) and a non-net profit of 439 million yuan (down 25.84% year-on-year) [3]. - In Q1 2025, the company reported revenue of 482 million yuan (down 1.92% year-on-year) and a non-net profit of 141 million yuan (down 9.19% year-on-year) [3]. - Shareholders are increasingly selling off their stakes, with a recent transaction involving a major shareholder selling shares at a 14% discount to market price, reflecting cautious expectations for short-term stock performance [3]. Group 3: Strategic Moves - In response to operational challenges, Yirui Technology is investing over 3 billion yuan in two major expansion projects, including an 1.8 billion yuan investment in a micro-display backplane project and an 1.174 billion yuan X-ray vacuum device project [4]. - The expansion projects represent 37% of the company's total assets for 2024 and are closely linked to the chairman's other company, Shiya Technology, which is preparing for an IPO despite not yet being profitable [4]. Group 4: Market Outlook - There are signs of potential recovery in the medical equipment procurement market, with a reported 41% year-on-year increase in procurement scale for the first half of 2025, particularly in CT and DR equipment, which are core applications for Yirui's detectors [5]. - However, Yirui Technology faces significant competition in the silicon-based OLED market from global giants like Sony, which dominate a market worth over 500 million USD, posing challenges in technology accumulation and cost control [6].
