Core Viewpoint - The report from Guojin Securities highlights the positive outlook for the engineering machinery sector, driven by the resonance of domestic and international sales, leading to growth in scale, profit release, and improved operational quality [1][2]. Domestic Market Performance - In the first half of 2025, domestic sales of earthmoving machinery remained strong, with notable recovery in non-earthmoving sectors such as cranes. The revenue growth rates for major manufacturers were as follows: Sany Heavy Industry at 21.4%, Liugong at 15.7%, XCMG at 5.5%, and Zoomlion at -11.6% [1][2]. - The gross profit margins of leading manufacturers in the domestic market were 5%-10% lower compared to the peak in 2020, but there is potential for increased performance as non-earthmoving sales rise [1]. International Market Dynamics - The overseas market remains a critical area for profit release for major manufacturers, with gross profit margins significantly higher than those in the domestic market. The margin differences for Sany, XCMG, Zoomlion, and Liugong were 9.1%, 3.7%, 7.3%, and 13.9% respectively [1][2]. Global Demand Recovery - The engineering machinery sector is expected to benefit from a global demand recovery, with a projected increase in excavator replacement demand from 79,000 units in 2023 to 249,000 units by 2027. The demand for non-earthmoving machinery is also anticipated to rise as it begins to recover from a lag behind excavator sales [3]. - Major infrastructure projects, such as the Yajiang Hydropower Station and rural road reconstruction, are expected to boost demand for various types of engineering machinery [3]. Interest Rate Impact on Overseas Demand - The report suggests that the current interest rate reduction cycle will support a recovery in overseas engineering machinery demand. In North America, demand is expected to release in 2025, while in Europe, there are signs of growth in excavator exports [4]. - Emerging markets are also projected to maintain high demand due to economic growth, urbanization, and mining activities, particularly in regions like Southeast Asia and the Middle East [4].
