Deng
Dingliang, the chairman secretary of Anhui Huilong Agricultural Means of
Production Co., Ltd. (Anhui Huilong) revealed that the company's business
structure is in transition and the proportion of fertilizer revenue will be reduced
to 60%, with that of pesticide business increased to 20%-30%, seed and other
business to 10%, according to Insecticides China
News issued by CCM in Junary.
Anhui
Huilong is the biggest chain enterprise for the distribution of agricultural
production means in Anhui Province, its main business includes fertilizer, pesticides,
agricultural produces and chemical products, among which, revenue of fertilizer
business accounting for over 70% of its total revenue at present.
In
recent years, revenue of Anhui Huilong has experienced sharp increase, however,
its net profit is decreasing. Compared with 2010, the total revenue of the
company in 2012 was USD1,827 million, up by 101%, while its net profit was
USD11 million, down by 49%. The main reason for the decrease in the profit of
Anhui Huilong is the severe over capacity of fertilizer in China, the
continuous weak market, which leads to the decreasing gross profit margin. The
gross profit margin of fertilizer business in the company was 7.05% in 2010,
however, it decreased to 3.84% in 2012 and further decreased to 3.08% in H1
2013.
Unlike
fertilizer unit, the company's sales revenue of pesticide business obtained
large growth and meanwhile, its gross profit margin kept at a relatively high
level. This is the important reason for the company's determination of focusing
on the pesticide business.
The
company's revenue of pesticides was USD122 million in 2012, up by 41.03%
compared with the same period of 2011 and its gross profit margin was 8.15%,
being the top among all of its businesses. In H1 2013, the revenue of the
company decreased by 9.55% year-on-year, however, that of pesticides kept
increasing, with the growth of 13.22% compared with the same period of 2012,
reaching USD72 million.
In
fact, Anhui Huilong comes across some opportunities in the field of agricultural
produces sales. Recently, the willing of the Chinese government in promoting
land transformation is clear and as the agricultural distribution chain
enterprise, Anhui Huilong is closely related with land transformation that it
attracts lots of attention from investors. The company's share price increased
from about USD1 per share in July 2013 to the highest of USD2.3 per share in
Oct. 2013.
Investors
believe that land transformation has two benefits to the company. On one hand,
the company directly takes part in land transformation. Anhui Huilong took part
in land transformation in Quanjiao County of Anhui Province and leased more
than 1333 ha of land, actively exploring efficient ecological agriculture.
What's
more, after land transformation, the subject of agricultural production will
change from small scale farmers to large scale farming and rural cooperatives,
which will largely improve the demand for specific agriculture service. Such
demand will benefit large enterprises with agriculture service abilities.
