[10 days, 6 plates, Minfa Aluminum: The current market competition in the aluminum profile industry is intensifying, which may lead to a decrease in the company's gross profit margin] On November 6, Minfa Aluminum (002578.SZ) announced that the current market competition in the aluminum profile industry is intensifying, and processing fees are decreasing year by year. If demand in the downstream industry continues to be sluggish in the future and industry competition further intensifies, resulting in product prices and processing fees continuing to decline, the company's gross profit margin may decline or even become unprofitable, thereby adversely affecting operating results. The company's pricing model is "aluminum ingot + processing fee", and there is no real-time matching between aluminum ingot price fluctuations and order pricing. Therefore, if the aluminum ingot price fluctuates significantly, it will have an adverse impact on the company's operating performance. The product processing fee is mainly determined based on the complexity of the production process and processing procedures. If the complexity of product production technology or processing procedures increases, and processing fees do not increase simultaneously, labor costs and management costs may increase, which will have a negative impact on the company's profitability.
