Comprehensive gross profit margin fluctuates greatly
Company is mainly engaged in the research, development, production and sales of fine chemical products such as film forming additives, plasticizing agents, and its main products include dodecanol esters, hexadecanol esters (also known as "hexadecanol diesters"), dimethyl phthalate , etc. Among them, dodecanol esters are used as film-forming additives in water-based coating additives, mainly used in architectural coatings and industrial coatings; hexadecanol esters (hexadecanol esters) can be used as film-forming additives for water-based coatings , and are used in the polyvinyl chloride (PVC) industry; dimethyl phthalate is used as plasticizer, and is used in downstream fields such as solvent-based coatings , methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (a curing agent for fiberglass), acetate fiber, etc.
From 2018 to January-September 2021, Runtai Co., Ltd.'s operating income was RMB 454 million, RMB 567 million, RMB 649 million and RMB 896 million, respectively, and the net profit attributable to shareholders after deducting non-operating items was RMB -37.9034 million, RMB 24.1117 million, RMB 51.5569 million and RMB 80.4368 million, respectively. The main reasons for the growth of operating income are the expansion of production capacity, the increase in sales volume and the increase in raw material prices, which lead to the growth of sales prices and the increase in operating income.
It is worth noting that the company's operating income mainly comes from dodecanol esters as water-based coating film forming additives, and the main product types are relatively single. If the company fails to expand the production and sales of products other than dodecyl alcohol esters in the future, and the dominant position of existing dodecyl alcohol esters is replaced by other materials, it may have an adverse impact on the company's production and operation.

relies on the top five suppliers
During the reporting period, the company's main suppliers include Zibo Fangyi Industry and Trade Co., Ltd./Zibo Wohang Industry and Trade Co., Ltd., Saudi Basic Industry (China) Investment Co., Ltd./Saudi Basic Industry Asia Pacific Private Co., Ltd., Nanjing Chengzhi Clean Energy Co., Ltd., Taiwan Plastic Industry Co., Ltd. , etc. The total amount of procurement of the company's top five suppliers was RMB 248 million, RMB 240 million, RMB 265 million and RMB 544 million, respectively, accounting for 68.07%, 58.43%, 70.82% and 78.45% of the total procurement, respectively.

If the cooperation between the company and the major suppliers terminates, it may have an adverse impact on the company's raw material supply and normal production and operation.
