As a staunch promoter of domestic CPUs, Loongson Zhongke's performance in 2023 is very poor, with a pre-loss of 310 million yuan, which is lower than the expectations of many securities companies.In this regard, Loongson Zhongke stated that the company is still affected by factors such as the macroeconomic environment and cyclical changes in the semiconductor industry. At the same time, the company's traditional advantages in the industrial control field are temporarily stagnant due to internal customer management matters, and the information-based e-government market is in an adjustment period and has not increased its volume.
In addition, due to the severe situation of intensifying external competition, the company's operating income has declined significantly year-on-year.
However, Loongson Zhongke believes that in the future, it will focus on CPU cost-effectiveness and build the Loongson ecosystem. With low price advantages and ecological barriers, it will open up open markets outside the policy market for specific fields such as industry terminals, storage servers, printers, hardware and electronics.
In the next year of 2024, Loongson Zhongke believes that the 3A6000 processor will increase in volume in the consumer market, which will lead to a turning point in the company's overall performance. At the same time, the terminal-oriented 2K3000 and 16-core 3C6000 have now completed the design, which can bring good expectations to the company.
In addition, the 32-core 3D6000 and 64-core 3E6000 will be formed using Chiplet technology to package two and four 3C6000 silicon wafers respectively. In terms of desktop 4-core products, the 6000 series is also constantly optimized.
Of course, the first one to be mass-produced will be the 3A6000. According to three-party test results, the overall performance of the Loongson 3A6000 processor is equivalent to Intel's 10th generation Core quad-core processor launched in 2020.
At present, more than 50 partners, including Tongfang Computer, Aerospace 706, and Lenovo Kaitian, have released desktop computers, notebooks and other products based on Loongson 3A6000. The Asus Loongson 3A6000 consumer-grade motherboard has appeared and was sold for less than 2,000 yuan.
