幺麻子三闯IPO

Core Viewpoint - The company, Yao Mazi Food Co., Ltd., is attempting to list on the Beijing Stock Exchange (BSE) after previous unsuccessful attempts on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SSE) due to regulatory issues and reliance on a single product, pepper oil, which poses risks for its IPO success [1][3][4]. Group 1: IPO Journey - Yao Mazi initially submitted a listing application to the Sichuan Securities Regulatory Bureau in September 2020, aiming for the SSE's ChiNext board, but later shifted to the SSE main board [3]. - After two years of review, the company withdrew its application in December 2023, citing strategic adjustments and regulatory warnings regarding undisclosed related-party transactions [3][4]. - In June 2024, Yao Mazi applied for listing on the New Third Board and subsequently on the BSE, with its application recently accepted [3][4]. Group 2: Financial Performance - The company aims to raise 568 million yuan for projects including the production of 35,000 tons of pepper oil and other seasoning oils, as well as technology and marketing initiatives [4]. - Yao Mazi has shown steady revenue growth, with revenues of 450 million yuan, 545 million yuan, 625 million yuan, and 332 million yuan for the years 2022 to 2025 (first half) respectively, and net profits of 81.1 million yuan, 98.7 million yuan, 157 million yuan, and 105 million yuan for the same periods [6]. - The company heavily relies on pepper oil, which accounted for over 80% of its main business revenue during the reporting period, indicating a significant dependency on a single product [6][7]. Group 3: Market Position and Competition - Yao Mazi is a leading player in the pepper oil market, holding a 30% market share in 2024, and has ranked first in similar product categories for several years [6]. - The pepper oil market is growing but remains fragmented, with competitors like Wanfo, Wufeng Lihong, and major brands like Jinlongyu and Haitian entering the space, increasing competitive pressure [7]. - Analysts suggest that to maintain its leading position, Yao Mazi should diversify its product offerings and strengthen its supply chain management [7][8]. Group 4: Inventory Concerns - The company has high inventory levels, with net inventory amounts of 266 million yuan, 261 million yuan, 245 million yuan, and 254 million yuan from 2022 to the first half of 2025 [7][8]. - High inventory can lead to increased financial costs and risks of obsolescence, especially if market demand fluctuates or if there are inefficiencies in inventory management [8].
