Core Viewpoint - The polyester filament industry is undergoing a transformation with self-regulation measures improving pricing and profitability, while the industry is expected to see enhanced profitability in the medium term due to reduced production capacity and strong demand from downstream sectors [1][3]. Group 1: Industry Dynamics - The polyester filament expansion cycle is nearing its end, with new capacity concentrated among leading companies, resulting in increased market concentration [1]. - From 2014 to 2023, the industry's capacity grew from 21.03 million tons to 41.28 million tons, with a compound annual growth rate of 7.78%. In 2024, new capacity is expected to be only 970,000 tons, a significant drop to 2.35% year-on-year growth [1]. - The concentration ratio (CR6) is projected to rise from approximately 85% in 2023 to 87% in 2024, indicating stronger dominance by leading firms [1]. Group 2: Demand and Export Trends - The demand for polyester filament is supported by stable global textile and apparel demand, with domestic retail sales in clothing, shoes, and textiles increasing by 3.10% year-on-year in the first half of 2025, leading to a 5.37% increase in apparent consumption of polyester filament [2]. - Direct exports of polyester filament reached 1.7652 million tons in the first half of 2025, showing a robust year-on-year growth of 14.18% [2]. - The U.S. apparel market is recovering, with monthly sales figures showing positive growth since April 2024, which is expected to further bolster polyester filament demand [2]. Group 3: Profitability and Self-Regulation - The self-regulation initiative in May 2024, which included a "one-price" policy, initially improved polyester filament prices and profitability, with significant price increases noted in various filament types [3]. - However, the initiative faced challenges due to falling oil prices and low downstream operating rates, leading to a competitive pricing environment [3]. - Looking ahead to 2025, the removal of the "one-price" model is expected to allow for more flexible adjustments, with the industry maintaining strong profitability despite external pressures [3]. Group 4: Beneficiary Companies - Key beneficiaries in the polyester filament sector include Xinfengming (603225.SH), Tongkun (601233.SH), Hengli Petrochemical (600346.SH), Rongsheng Petrochemical (002493.SZ), Hengyi Petrochemical (000703.SZ), and Dongfang Shenghong (000301.SZ) [4].
