Core Viewpoint - Xiamen Hengkang New Materials Technology Co., Ltd. has received approval for its IPO on the Sci-Tech Innovation Board, but faces significant challenges due to high customer concentration and a notable disparity between revenue growth and profit decline [1][2][4]. Group 1: Revenue and Profitability - Hengkang New Materials has shown strong revenue growth with a compound annual growth rate of 30.5%, but struggles with profitability, as evidenced by a 25.18% decline in net profit in the first half of 2025 despite a 23.74% increase in revenue [1][2][3]. - The company’s revenue heavily relies on its top five customers, which accounted for over 97% of total sales during the reporting period, indicating a high customer concentration risk [3][4]. - The revenue figures for 2022 to 2024 show a significant increase, with 2024 revenue up 70.29% compared to 2022, yet net profit decreased by nearly 3 million [2][3]. Group 2: Customer Dependency - The largest customer contributed 64% of total revenue in the lowest year of the reporting period, raising concerns about the sustainability of the business model if relationships with key clients deteriorate [4][5]. - The company’s reliance on a few key customers poses a risk to its operational performance, as any changes in these relationships could adversely affect financial results [4]. Group 3: Product Profitability - Hengkang New Materials has a dual product structure, with self-produced products and introduced products, but the latter remains the primary source of profit, contributing over 65% of gross profit despite a growing share of self-produced products in revenue [5][6]. - The gross profit margins for self-produced products have been declining, falling below industry averages since 2023, raising questions about their technological competitiveness [9]. Group 4: IPO Fund Utilization and Project Viability - The company plans to raise 1.007 billion yuan for expansion projects, including the second phase of integrated circuit precursors and advanced materials, but the rationale behind these projects is under scrutiny due to ongoing losses in precursor products [1][10][12]. - The utilization rates for KrF photoresist production have been alarmingly low, with rates below 20%, leading to skepticism about the decision to expand production capacity in this area [12].
