Core Viewpoint - The industrial enterprises' revenue and profit data for July 2025 indicate a slight stabilization in growth, with expectations for improved profit growth in the third quarter compared to the second quarter due to factors like "anti-involution" benefiting some upstream industries [1][21]. Revenue Analysis - In July, the revenue of industrial enterprises increased by 0.9% year-on-year, remaining stable compared to the 1.0% growth in May and June.

Conversely, the coal industry saw a significant profit decline of 55.2% [10][13]. Marginal Changes in Profitability - The "anti-involution" trend has led to profit improvements in some upstream industries, with raw materials manufacturing profits rebounding from a 5% decline in June to a 36.9% increase in July [11][12]. - High-tech manufacturing profits increased by 18.9% in July, with notable growth in aerospace and semiconductor-related sectors [12][13].

Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the content Core Viewpoints of the Report - Since July 2023, local government debt resolution policies have been intensively introduced, forming a "Document 35 + 6" policy system, which strictly regulates urban investment financing. Under the current refinancing environment that emphasizes both strict supervision and debt resolution, urban investment new - financing shows significant characteristics of "total volume control and structural differentiation", and the credit stratification and regional differentiation in the urban investment financing market will further intensify [2][4]. - The policy will continue to adhere to the principle of differentiated management, strictly curb new implicit debts, and support the transformation of qualified urban investment platforms. Regions with resource advantages and industrial support are expected to expand financing channels through industrial investment platforms, while regions with slow transformation and scarce resources will face severe constraints on platform financing capabilities [4]. Summary by Relevant Catalogs Urban Investment Financing Policy - Since July 2023, a "Document 35 + 6" policy system has been formed. Document 35 classifies regions and local state - owned enterprises and implements differentiated management of financing policies. The six supplementary documents further clarify measures such as controlling new government investment projects, expanding the scope of debt resolution measures, and specifying the exit path for high - risk key provinces. Overall, it comprehensively regulates urban investment financing [6]. - In March 2025, the Shanghai Stock Exchange issued Guidance Document No. 3, which added many review points for urban investment issuers, including clarifying the boundaries of urban investment entities, raising the threshold for bond issuance, and putting forward review requirements for the chaos in urban investment transformation, which is both a specific implementation of strict review and a guide for urban investment transformation [7]. - In the current urban investment financing review practice, bond issuance approval mainly relies on the list - based management, and the overall review scale is still strict. Even if the issuer is not on or has exited the "3899 list", it still needs to meet relevant regulations to issue new bonds [8]. Overview of New Urban Investment Financing - From October 2023 to July 2025, 534 urban investment entities in 28 provinces achieved new bond issuance. Economically developed provinces such as Guangdong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang are dominant. In terms of administrative levels, prefecture - level and district - level entities are the main ones. High - rating entities (AAA and AA+) are the leading ones in new financing. The number of entities achieving new financing in the inter - bank market and the exchange market is basically the same, but there are obvious structural differences among different administrative levels [13][14][16]. - Most entities only issued 1 new bond, and those that could issue more than 3 new bonds were concentrated in AAA - rated provincial and prefecture - level entities. In terms of bond types, the scale of inter - bank products in new urban investment bonds significantly leads that of exchange products, and medium - term notes and ultra - short - term financing bills have the largest scale. New urban investment bonds are mainly public - offering bonds, and the main use of raised funds is to repay interest - bearing debts [18][22]. Overview of Entities Issuing Bonds for the First Time First - time Issuance of Urban Investment Platforms - From October 2023, among the 534 urban investment entities that achieved new financing, 69 were first - time bond issuers. They are characterized by "relatively weak credit qualifications (mainly district - level and AA+), leading number of first - time issuers in the exchange, and private - offering products as the mainstay". Different issuance venues have obvious regional preferences [34]. - Guangdong has significantly more first - time urban investment new - issuance entities than other provinces. There are three main types of regional preferences: regions with zero hidden debts, good economic foundations, and relatively loose supervision; regions with good economic foundations but large existing urban investment debts and different supervision intensities in the inter - bank and exchange markets; regions with relatively large economic volumes but heavy debt burdens, mainly achieving new issuance in the exchange [41][42]. First - time Issuance of Quasi - Urban Investment Industrial Entities - The first - time issuance of quasi - urban investment industrial entities is characterized by "mainly prefecture - level and AA+ entities, leading number of first - time issuers in the exchange, and both public - offering and private - offering products thriving". Their credit levels are generally better than those of first - time urban investment entities, and their financing channels are more diverse [47]. - These entities can be classified into three types according to business types: industrial holding, public utilities, and transportation. Industrial holding platforms account for more than 70% of the samples, and their credit qualifications are highly differentiated, which can be further divided into five sub - types [57][70].
