机械设备行业跟踪报告：2025H1机械设备板块营收及归母净利润双增长，盈利能力有所提升

Investment Rating - The mechanical equipment industry is rated as outperforming the market, with expectations of a relative increase of over 10% in the industry index compared to the broader market over the next six months [28]. Core Insights - In the first half of 2025, the mechanical equipment sector achieved a revenue of 998.76 billion yuan, representing a year-on-year growth of 9.31%, while the net profit attributable to shareholders reached 75.032 billion yuan, growing by 21.91%. This growth is driven by the rapid development of strategic emerging industries such as new energy vehicles, photovoltaics, energy storage, and semiconductors, enhancing the global competitiveness of Chinese mechanical equipment [1][11]. - The overall gross margin and net margin of the mechanical equipment sector improved, with gross margin at 23.17% and net margin at 8.08%, reflecting an increase of 0.06 and 0.86 percentage points respectively compared to the same period in 2024. The effective cost control and operational efficiency improvements contributed significantly to profit growth, indicating a successful "cost reduction and efficiency enhancement" strategy [2][13]. Summary by Sections Mechanical Equipment Sector Performance - The mechanical equipment sector's revenue and net profit both showed positive year-on-year growth in the first half of 2025, with net profit growth outpacing revenue growth, indicating improved profitability and operational quality [1][11]. Sub-Sector Analysis - Among the sub-sectors, the rail transit equipment II segment performed exceptionally well, with revenue and net profit growth rates of 24.73% and 47.76% respectively. Other segments such as general equipment, specialized equipment, and engineering machinery also reported growth, while the automation equipment segment experienced revenue growth without profit growth [3][16][19]. - The rail transit equipment II segment's high growth is attributed to significant infrastructure investments, including new urban rail transit and intercity rail projects, as well as overseas orders under the Belt and Road Initiative [19]. - The engineering machinery segment saw net profit growth double that of revenue growth, driven by a recovery in industry demand and a focus on operational quality by leading companies [19]. Investment Recommendations - The report suggests focusing on segments with strong profitability and high growth certainty, particularly in engineering machinery and rail transit equipment, where leading companies are expected to perform well due to their cost control capabilities and healthy cash flows [25][27].
