在2024财年，A股市场的白酒板块继续展现出其独特的韧性，营收与归母净利润分别实现了7.29%和7.41%的增长，连 续十年保持营收利润双增长，成为食品饮料板块中的一枝独秀。然而，尽管业绩层面看似稳健，白酒企业的股价却普 遍陷入低迷，这一现象引发了市场的广泛关注。 面对股价的不振，市场是否失灵？答案显然是否定的。深入分析各白酒上市公司的财务数据与运营策略，不难发现， 白酒企业正通过各种"财务与运营策略"来维持表面的繁荣与最后的尊严。 首先，白酒企业开始拉长账期，放弃了以往"先款后货"的惯例。在会计学的恒等式中，"资产=负债+所有者权益"揭示 了企业经营的本质。同样，利润表也遵循类似的逻辑，即经营性利润与经营性数据应保持相对一致。然而，2024年的 白酒企业利润表却出现了明显偏差。尽管营收和归母净利润的增速符合预期，但营运层面的经营业天数却大幅增加62 天，达到十年来的最高点，平均营运周期更是突破了700天。 这背后，存货周转天数的快速增加以及合同负债的减少与应收账款的抬头形成了剪刀差。白酒作为存货价值随时间增 长的特殊商品，其存货的快速增长并非正常现象。过去一年，白酒企业的存货净增长额接近200亿，创历史新高 ...
