闪电速度上会！两年分红上亿，这家公司净利却忽高忽低

Core Viewpoint - Hongban Technology Co., Ltd. has successfully completed its IPO process in just four months, but faces significant scrutiny due to its fluctuating net profits, large dividends, and concentrated ownership structure [1][11]. Company Overview - Hongban Technology specializes in the research, production, and sales of printed circuit boards (PCBs), particularly focusing on high-density interconnect (HDI) boards, which are known for their high precision, density, and reliability [3][7]. - The company has established a comprehensive product structure, including HDI boards, rigid boards, flexible boards, and IC substrates, with applications in consumer electronics, automotive electronics, high-end displays, and communication electronics [3]. Financial Performance - The company's revenue has shown consistent growth, with figures of 2.205 billion, 2.340 billion, and 2.702 billion yuan for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024 respectively [4]. - However, net profit has been highly volatile, recorded at 141 million, 105 million (a 25.4% year-on-year decline), and 214 million (a 103.87% year-on-year increase) for the same years, resulting in a fluctuation exceeding 129% [6]. Pricing and Market Dynamics - The significant fluctuation in net profit is attributed to a decline in the average selling price of HDI boards, which dropped by 19.94% in 2023 and an additional 5.26% in 2024, totaling over 25% in two years [7]. - The overall average price of products decreased by 10.57% in 2023, with a smaller decline of 1.94% in 2024 [7]. Capacity and Investment - The company plans to raise 2.057 billion yuan for a new project aimed at producing 1.2 million square meters of high-precision circuit boards, despite existing capacity utilization rates not exceeding 90% [8]. - Capacity figures for 2022 to 2025 show an increase from 1.7529 million square meters to 2.0308 million square meters, with utilization rates improving but still below optimal levels [8]. Research and Development - Hongban Technology's R&D expenses as a percentage of revenue have been lower than industry averages, with figures of 4.56%, 4.69%, 4.63%, and 3.65% compared to the industry averages of 4.70%, 5.14%, 5.13%, and 4.89% [9][10]. - The company’s lower investment in R&D may impact its future competitiveness in the capital and technology-intensive PCB industry [10]. Dividend Policy and Ownership Structure - The company distributed a total of 138 million yuan in dividends over the reporting period, with 74% of the 2023 net profit allocated to dividends [11]. - The ownership structure is highly concentrated, with the actual controller, Ye Senran, holding over 95% of the shares, leading to significant control over company decisions [11]. Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable have been increasing, with balances of 622 million, 758 million, 919 million, and 1.136 billion yuan over the reporting period, representing 28.21%, 32.42%, 34%, and 33.22% of revenue respectively [13][14]. - The accounts receivable turnover ratio has been consistently below the industry average, indicating potential liquidity issues [13].
