Financial Status and Cost Structure - The main business costs of the nuclear power segment are primarily composed of depreciation, fuel costs, repair costs, spent fuel disposal funds, and employee compensation, which collectively accounted for approximately 90% of the total business costs in recent periods [2]. - Depreciation costs represent the largest portion, with amounts of 1.772 billion, 1.814 billion, and 0.945 billion for the years 2023, 2024, and the first half of 2025, respectively [2]. - The spent fuel disposal fund is expected to significantly increase starting in 2024, reaching 458 million, which will impact overall cost structures [2]. Gross Profit Margin Trends - The gross profit margin for the nuclear power segment is projected to decline from 42.30% in 2023 to 31.14% in 2024, primarily due to the increased allocation of spent fuel disposal funds [3]. - The gross profit margin for electricity sales is expected to drop from 42.55% to 31.47%, while the heating business margin is anticipated to decrease from 24.95% to 19.15% [3]. - However, there is an indication of recovery in the first half of 2025, with the heating business margin rebounding to 30.31% due to the absence of major repairs [3]. Accounts Receivable and Inventory Management - The accounts receivable balance has remained stable at approximately 713 million, while inventory has increased from 1.416 billion to 2.004 billion without any impairment provisions, which has raised regulatory inquiries [4]. - Accounts receivable are primarily from State Grid Shandong Electric Power Company, which has a strong repayment history, and from Haiyang Haifa Water Group, with a 100% historical collection rate [4]. - Inventory mainly consists of nuclear fuel and spare parts, with a significant portion being specialized components for nuclear safety, aligning with industry practices [4]. Fixed Assets and Depreciation Policies - As of the end of 2024, fixed assets totaled 40.709 billion, representing 37.09% of total assets, while construction in progress amounted to 34.974 billion, accounting for 31.87% [5]. - The depreciation policies for fixed assets are consistent with industry standards, with no significant impairment detected, thus no provisions have been made [5]. - The detailed financial disclosures provided in response to regulatory inquiries are intended to enhance market understanding of the asset quality involved in the major asset restructuring [5].
