1. Core Summary

Inovance Technology currently presents a divergent pattern of "revenue maintaining relatively rapid growth while profit comes under pressure": in H1 2026, it achieved operating revenue of RMB 24.675 billion, up 20.31% year-on-year, and net profit attributable to parent of RMB 2.810 billion, down 5.35% year-on-year. The core drag comes from the new energy vehicle powertrain business, where segment revenue was approximately RMB 9.407 billion with a gross margin of 12.82%, and the controlled subsidiary Inovance Automotive posted a net loss attributable to parent of approximately RMB 88 million in H1; over the same period, the industrial automation and digitalization business generated revenue of approximately RMB 13.5 billion, up approximately 29% year-on-year, with a gross margin of 41.37%, while general automation revenue reached approximately RMB 11.0 billion, up approximately 36% year-on-year, becoming the primary support for current profit and growth.

The company's long-term competitiveness is primarily concentrated in industrial automation fields such as general-purpose servo systems, low-voltage inverters, PLCs, and robotics, with related products possessing logic around import substitution, market share gains, and platform-based synergies; in H1 2026, emerging industry revenue was approximately RMB 1.47 billion, up approximately 96% year-on-year, but the gross margin was 28.38%, down 5.40 percentage points year-on-year. Meanwhile, new energy vehicle powertrain systems already accounted for approximately 45% of the company's revenue in 2025, but with a gross margin of only approximately 16.10%. In H1 2026, it was further affected by changes in domestic new energy vehicle demand, rising raw material costs, and OEM cost-reduction pressure, causing the company's overall profitability to remain dragged down by its business mix.

Financial performance shows that the company has maintained relatively rapid revenue growth since 2023, but the gross margin declined from 37.98% in 2020 to 28.95% in 2025, and the net margin fell from 18.95% to 11.46%, reflecting the volume ramp-up of low-margin new energy business and cost and price competition pressure. In H1 2026, net cash flow from operating activities was RMB 1.975 billion, down 34.60% year-on-year, accounts receivable turnover days rose to approximately 99.5 days, and customer concentration also increased from the top five customers accounting for 16.21% in 2022 to 29.98% in 2025. Capital tie-up and customer bargaining pressure warrant attention.

As of September 11, 2026, the company's share price closed at RMB 53.52, down approximately 9.8% cumulatively from the September 4 close, below MA5, MA10, and MA20, with long-term moving averages in a bearish alignment, MACD negative, and net outflow of main capital of approximately RMB 328 million over the past 5 days; however, RSI(14) stood at 11.844, in the extreme oversold zone, suggesting a possible short-term technical rebound. The RMB 53.20–53.60 range is the near-term support observation area, and RMB 54.00–54.60 is the short-term resistance area. Technical indicators are currently more suitable for tracking trend changes rather than confirming a medium-term reversal.

2. Company Overview

2.1 Basic Information

2.2 Main Business and Product Layout

• Industrial automation and digitalization (including general automation: inverters/servos/PLC&HMI; smart elevators)
• New energy vehicle powertrain systems (electric drive systems: electronic control, motors, drive assemblies; power supply systems: OBC, DC/DC, power assemblies; intelligent chassis systems)
• Emerging industries (intelligent robotics, digital energy/energy storage)
• Rail transit (traction and control systems, main entity Jiangsu Jingwei)

2.3 Industry Chain Upstream/Downstream Position and Cost-Profit Structure

The company positions itself as a "globally leading, innovation-driven industrial technology group," classified as mid-stream manufacturing, with no mineral resource reserves; in terms of revenue structure, the two major segments of industrial automation & digitalization and new energy vehicle powertrain systems together accounted for approximately 94% of 2025 revenue, but their gross margins differ vastly (approximately 40% vs. approximately 16%), which is the core contradiction between its industry chain position and profit structure.

• Core procurement inputs: (1) Power semiconductors IGBT, SiC, as well as MCU, DSP, memory chips, etc.; chip manufacturers include Infineon, STMicroelectronics, etc., with high import dependence and geopolitical/supply risks (this chip manufacturer information comes only from a single "Hong Kong IPO Observer" in-depth report and has not been cross-verified by a second source); (2) Copper/magnetic materials (motor windings, permanent magnets, domestically sourced), silicon steel, aluminum; (3) Electronic components (PCB, capacitors, resistors); (4) Structural parts/machined parts.
• Supplier concentration: In 2022, the top five suppliers had total procurement of RMB 2.162 billion, accounting for 14.41% of total annual procurement (Source: 2022 Annual Report, republished by Sohu Securities). Overall suppliers are dispersed, and the company has some degree of choice over upstream, but is a price taker for IGBT/chips and bulk metals (copper, rare earths, silicon steel, aluminum).
• Cost structure reference (industry basis, not company-specific table): In the inverter industry, IGBT accounts for approximately 26.5% of production costs and PCB approximately 31.5% (Source: Securities Star/Qianzhan 2023 Inverter Industry Chain Overview). This is industry data, not Inovance-specific BOM, and serves only as an order-of-magnitude reference.
• Price increase pressure: A single-source Xueqiu individual calculation article claims that in 2025, metal material (copper/aluminum/silicon steel) procurement costs rose 40%–49% and memory chips rose 40%–100%, and states that the company initiated price adjustments in early 2026; this article is an individual calculation, not company disclosure, and the BOM proportions are all assumed values — it serves only as directional reference and should not be cited as official data. Verifiable official/media sources include: the 2026 Interim Report explicitly states "rising prices and insufficient supply of bulk commodities, semiconductor devices, and other raw materials bring supply chain risks," and the company responds through technological iteration, lean operations, and supply chain coordination.
• Downstream customers: Equipment manufacturers (general automation), elevator OEMs (smart elevators), automotive OEMs (new energy powertrain systems), rail transit owners/vehicle manufacturers.
• Consolidated customer concentration: In 2022, the top five customers totaled RMB 3.731 billion, accounting for 16.21%; in 2024, the top five customers totaled RMB 10.973 billion, accounting for 29.62% (the largest customer accounted for 15.15%); in 2025, the top five customers totaled RMB 13.523 billion, accounting for 29.98% (first 8.15%, second 8.12%, third 7.45%, fourth 3.74%, fifth 2.52%). Sources: 2022/2025 Annual Reports, Chaguwang. The proportion has increased year by year, mainly due to changes in customer rankings in the new energy vehicle business.
• Subsidiary Inovance Automotive has even higher customer concentration (per the spin-off prospectus, as of 2024H1, relatively dated): 2021–2024H1 top five customer revenue proportions were 81.74%/71.73%/76.03%/66.28%; customers include Li Auto, XPeng, GAC, Changan, Great Wall, Geely, Xiaomi, Volvo, Volkswagen, Porsche, etc.; Li Auto and XPeng payment terms once reached 193.74 days and 273.98 days, respectively (Source: Jiemian News).
• Bargaining dynamics (key structural fact): The new energy vehicle segment faces OEMs transmitting cost pressure upstream and increasing in-house production ratios; the company explicitly identifies "potential product price reduction risk" (2026 Interim Report, per NBD); i.e., mid-stream Tier-1 powertrain suppliers face OEM cost-reduction transmission, a typical "annual price reduction/annual price cut" pressure direction. The general automation segment is relatively closer to the "import substitution + share gain" logic, with relatively stronger bargaining power.
• Customer and supplier overlap: In 2025, one of the company's top five customers was also a supplier ("Customer and Supplier A," an automotive OEM), with sales to it of RMB 1.689 billion and procurement of RMB 117 million (Source: H-share prospectus, per NBD).
• Accounts receivable turnover days: 2022: 84.5 days → 2023: 90 days → 2024: 94.8 days → 2025: 88.7 days → 2026Q1: 99.5 days (Source: BOCHK/etnet financial ratios page); H-share prospectus basis: trade receivables and notes receivable were RMB 12.59 billion at end-2023 → RMB 14.219 billion at end-2024 → RMB 15.744 billion at end-2025, with turnover days of 90/95/89 days (per NBD). Inventory turnover days: 2022: 116.7 days → 2023: 102.6 days → 2024: 90.0 days → 2025: 84.5 days (etnet). Specific figures for payables/prepayments that can be cross-verified were not obtained this time; overall, receivables > payables, reflecting that the company faces significant capital tie-up from downstream (especially OEMs) and is the party whose funds are occupied rather than the occupier. Subsidiary Inovance Automotive's accounts receivable turnover days for 2021–2023 were 134.69/130.36/120.46 days, respectively, all above peer averages (Source: Jiemian News citing prospectus).
• Upstream: In 2022, the top five suppliers together accounted for 14.41% of total annual procurement (2022 Annual Report; source is single but represents original disclosure basis, for reference only). Downstream: Top five customer proportions were 16.21% in 2022, 29.62% in 2024, and 29.98% in 2025 (2022/2025 Annual Reports and Chaguwang, with source years noted). Subsidiary Inovance Automotive's top five customer proportions for 2021–2024H1 were 81.74%/71.73%/76.03%/66.28% (spin-off prospectus basis, as of 2024H1, unable to be cross-verified and relatively dated; subject to the latest annual report).

Inovance Technology occupies the "mid-stream, slightly upstream key components/solutions" position on the smile curve: the general automation segment enjoys high gross margins (40%+) and pricing power by virtue of technological barriers and import substitution, and is its profit foundation; the new energy powertrain systems segment, despite its enormous scale (already approximately 45% of revenue in 2025), has only 12%–16% gross margin and is continuously pressured by OEMs on pricing — it is a "scale-for-share, thin-margin" link. Future margin improvement will mainly come from structural upgrading through increased share of general automation/emerging businesses (robotics, digital energy), pass-through of chip/bulk commodity costs and domestic component substitution, and cost reduction in the new energy segment (Inovance Automotive platformization), rather than a simple industry cyclical recovery.

3. Financial Data and Valuation Analysis

3.1 Recent Operating Performance

The 2026H1 formal interim report was disclosed on 2026-08-28 (earnings flash report 2026-08-24); data as of mid-September 2026, with the most recent financial report being the 2026 Interim Report. Quarterly breakdowns (2026Q1/Q2) are back-calculated from interim report and Q1 report cumulative figures; the company did not separately disclose these, so they are derived figures not directly confirmed by official sources. 2026H1 net profit attributable to parent excluding non-recurring items was RMB 2.756 billion (+3.15%), basic earnings per share RMB 1.04 (-5.45%), weighted average ROE 7.69%, operating profit RMB 3.049 billion (-4.63%), net cash flow from operating activities RMB 1.975 billion (-34.60%). 2024 net profit attributable to parent excluding non-recurring items was RMB 4.036 billion (-0.87%). Some annual gross margins are multi-source compilations (not a single official basis): 2022 approximately 35%, 2023 approximately 32.3%, 2024 approximately 28.7%, 2025 approximately 29.0%.

2026H1 revenue grew 20.31% but net profit attributable to parent declined 5.35%, mainly due to the company's stated reasons: ① declining domestic new energy vehicle demand combined with rising raw material prices, causing a sharp decline in net profit of the new energy vehicle powertrain systems business; ② exchange rate fluctuations reducing fair value change gains from held overseas funds (investment income -90.14% year-on-year, financial expenses turning from -RMB 52.11 million to +RMB 49.01 million); net non-recurring gains and losses declined from approximately RMB 297 million in the same period last year to approximately RMB 54 million. The entity causing the drag is the 83.17%-controlled subsidiary Inovance Automotive (301656.SZ): 2026H1 revenue of RMB 9.512 billion (+3.98%), net profit attributable to parent of -RMB 88 million (same period last year +RMB 549 million, -116.05% year-on-year), excluding non-recurring items -RMB 139 million; the new energy vehicle powertrain systems segment had 2026H1 revenue of RMB 9.407 billion (+4.04%) and gross margin of 12.82% (-4.02pct year-on-year). The highlight is industrial automation and digitalization: 2026H1 revenue of approximately RMB 13.5 billion (+29%), of which general automation approximately RMB 11.0 billion (+36%; servo approximately RMB 4.8 billion, inverters approximately RMB 3.3 billion, PLC&HMI approximately RMB 1.4 billion), segment gross margin 41.37%; smart elevators approximately RMB 2.4 billion (+5%); emerging industries (robotics/digital energy) approximately RMB 1.47 billion (+96%), gross margin 28.38% (-5.40pct). 2026H1 revenue composition: industrial automation and digitalization 54.57%, new energy vehicle powertrain systems 38.12%, emerging industries 5.95%, other 1.36%. Q2 gross margin rose 1.13pct quarter-on-quarter to 30.21% (derived from cumulative figures).

3.2 Earnings Forecasts

Forecast data all come from broker models or third-party compilations, not company disclosure: Huaxing Securities (2026-09-10), Huachuang Securities (2026-08-31), GF Securities (2026-09-11) individual forecasts; consensus estimates from stockanalysis.com (S&P Global, 23 analysts, data as of 2026-08-04) and Simply Wall St (S&P Global data, updated 2026-09-02, 22 analysts). Individual broker 2026E net profit attributable to parent ranges from RMB 5.66–6.05 billion, 2027E from RMB 7.09–7.77 billion, 2028E from RMB 8.50–9.58 billion; GF's 2027–2028 revenue forecasts (RMB 57.4/62.9 billion) are significantly lower than Huachuang's (RMB 67.2/79.8 billion), representing divergent individual model assumptions on the new energy vehicle business, not consensus. Some institutions' 2027E/2028E EPS were not listed in the minutes.

3.3 Valuation Levels and Institutional Ratings

Regarding the share price, the two more reliable data points in the minutes are: the 2026-09-11 close of RMB 53.52 (down -1.73% on the day, consistent with GF's report of the same date), and the 2026-08-28 close of RMB 62.05. Based on total share capital of approximately 2.707 billion shares, the 2026-09-11 corresponding total market capitalization was approximately RMB 144.9 billion (the minutes also mention a total market capitalization range of approximately RMB 145.0–147.0 billion). Valuation multiples vary considerably due to different data sources and base dates, and the base date must be noted: based on the 2026-08-28 close of RMB 62.05, PE(TTM) was approximately 35.44x, PB(LF) approximately 4.62x, PS(TTM) approximately 3.63x (Sina Finance, market cap RMB 168.007 billion); per a 2026-09-11 third-party source (East Money Caifuhao), share price RMB 54.27, market cap approximately RMB 147.0 billion, PE(TTM) approximately 30.5x, 2026 expected PE approximately 19.6x; GF Securities model P/E was 2024A 36.8, 2025A 40.4, 2026E 25.1, 2027E 19.9, 2028E 16.5. The 52-week range is approximately RMB 53.57–91.00 (Huaxing basis 91.00/57.32, as of 2026-09-04; Investing.com 61.12–91.00). Regarding dividends, FY2025 dividend per share was approximately RMB 0.41 (etnet unadjusted basis), with a payout ratio of approximately 28% and dividend yield of approximately 0.92% (third-party calculation). Data limitations: ① share price/valuation base dates vary; prices such as 64.10, 66.04, and 78.83 in the minutes are stale snapshots from different foreign-language sites on different dates and should not be directly used for current valuation; ② PE(TTM) basis conflict (35.44x vs. 30.5x) is mainly caused by different share price base dates, and the base date must be noted when citing; ③ consensus target prices are dispersed (83.30/87.74/64.60/82.97), stemming from differences in analyst sample sizes (20–23), update timing, and whether foreign banks are included — it is recommended to state as approximately RMB 80–88 with a sample of approximately 20–23 and note the source, rather than relying on a single platform's precise average; ④ individual broker forecasts vary widely (2026E net profit attributable to parent RMB 5.66–6.05 billion), representing individual models; ⑤ all earnings forecasts are forecast values, not company disclosure, and are subject to deviation risk; ⑥ financial details such as historical gross margin series not taken from official PDFs are multi-source compilations and should be verified against the original cninfo annual/interim reports.

4.10 Actual Controller Zhu Xingming's Gift of Shares to Daughter Zhu Hanyue

Announcement dated 2025-09-16, "Announcement on the Company's Actual Controller Fulfilling the〈Gift Agreement〉and Completion of Internal Transfer of Remaining Shares Between the Actual Controller and His Concerted Action Parties," with the gift completed by September 2025. Gift subject matter: 20.6021 million company shares + 21.7029% equity in Inovance Investment; voting rights entrusted to Zhu Xingming for exercise (daughter is a pure financial investor). Prior to the Hong Kong IPO, Zhu Xingming and his daughter collectively held approximately 19.27% (or 19.26%). Note: Sohu's "internal changes" table shows "Zhu Xingming" with consecutive daily changes from 2025-09-09 to 09-15 (average price RMB 78.88–80.70, approximately 1.60–1.64 million shares per day), which highly overlaps in timing with the above 2025-09-16 "gift/internal transfer completion" announcement; it is judged that these changes are more likely internal transfers between the actual controller and concerted action parties rather than market-price reductions, and should be distinguished based on company announcements.

4.11 Directors/Supervisors/Senior Management Share Reductions

In 2025, some directors, supervisors, and senior management collectively reduced approximately 5.28 million shares, involving approximately RMB 340 million (Source: NBD, single source, not verified transaction by transaction).

Margin financing and securities lending balance: approximately RMB 2.865 billion as of 2026-09-10. Note: Sohu Securities' same code page also has an old cached version labeled with 2025-09-30 financial data (showing market cap of RMB 203.3 billion and share price near RMB 75), inconsistent with the 2026-09-10 page data — this is a page version difference, and the latest date page must be used when citing market data.

4.23 Regulatory/Policy Notes

CSRC overseas listing filing supplementary materials requirements (2026-08-14, see Hong Kong listing entry). No public reports of major administrative penalties, investigations, or major litigation against the company were found (as of the search date, this is "not found" rather than "confirmed non-existent").

4.24 Institutional Views (Not Company Announcements, Background Only)

A broker research report (August 2026, republished by 9fzt.com): Reiterated "Buy," target price lowered to RMB 83.70 (corresponding to 40x 2026 P/E); estimated 2026–2028 revenue of RMB 54.64/65.50/73.74 billion, net profit attributable to parent of RMB 5.66/7.09/8.50 billion. Huachuang Securities 2026-05-05 target price of RMB 89.20 (cited by Economic Observer, with 7 institutions giving Buy ratings in the past month). The above are all broker forecasts/ratings, not official company data, and target prices fluctuate considerably (RMB 61 range → RMB 89 → RMB 83.7); note the basis and timing.

4.25 Uncertainties/Items to Be Verified

1. 2026 Q3 report/first three quarters earnings pre-announcement: As of the search date, no company release was found; continued monitoring needed during the quarterly report window (approximately October). 2. Buyback progress: Only the 2026-04-29 initial buyback amount of RMB 22.2821 million was found; no latest announcement of cumulative buyback quantity/amount was seen; the buyback scale and whether completed should be subject to cninfo announcements. 3. Nature of Zhu Xingming's September 2025 "changes": Sohu's "internal changes" table displays this on a reduction basis, but a concurrent "Gift Agreement" internal transfer completion announcement exists, making the two easily confused; whether it was a market-price reduction should be confirmed by formal company announcements, and conclusions should not be drawn solely from market data site information. 4. Directors/supervisors/senior management 2025 total reduction of 5.28 million shares/RMB 340 million, from a single media source (NBD), not verified transaction by transaction. 5. Revenue/net profit basis: The H-share prospectus "profit for the year" (including minority interests, RMB 5.173 billion in 2025) differs from the A-share "net profit attributable to parent" basis, and must be distinguished when citing. 6. The interim report net profit attributable to parent YoY decline ranges from -5.3% to -5.35% across sources, due to rounding/basis differences. 7. The two statements on fundraising scale — "approximately RMB 13.7 billion" and "up to USD 2 billion" — coexist, both from media, not official confirmed figures. 8. Hong Kong listing progress is subject to regulatory uncertainty (CSRC/Hong Kong SFC/HKEX approval).

5. Share Price Trend and Technical Analysis

5.1 Price Overview

5.2 Technical Indicators

As of September 11, 2026, Inovance Technology closed at RMB 53.52, with the short-term share price weakening consecutively, and the closing price below MA5, MA10, and MA20, the moving average system in bearish alignment, MACD negative, and net main capital outflow over the past 5 days — both technical and capital flow aspects are weak. RSI(14) at 11.844 is in the extreme oversold zone, implying a possible short-term technical rebound, but insufficient to confirm a trend reversal. Currently, focus can be placed on the RMB 53.20–53.60 support area and the RMB 54.00–54.60 resistance area. Due to missing BOLL specific values and inconsistent/unavailable unified-basis latest 52-week high/low points, relevant judgments should be regarded as technical observations based on verified price, moving average, and pivot point data.

5.3 Short-term Trend Outlook (Next Week, Scenario Deduction, For Reference Only)

⚠️ Risk Warning: The following content is solely a subjective scenario deduction based on closing data as of September 11, 2026, public technical indicators, and capital flows. It does not constitute investment advice and does not represent a deterministic forecast.

① Key Technical Levels

② Next Week Scenarios (Subjective Weights, Not Statistical Probabilities)

• Low-level consolidation (relatively higher weight, approximately 60%; this weight is a subjective heuristic judgment based on current technicals and capital flows, not a statistical probability): Price range approximately RMB 53.20–55.00. Trigger conditions include the share price stabilizing near RMB 53.20–53.60, main capital outflow narrowing significantly, daily turnover maintained at approximately RMB 1.5–1.8 billion without significant volume-driven selling, and the index and automation/robotics sectors not continuing to weaken substantially. Extreme RSI oversold may bring a technical rebound or slower decline, but major moving averages remain downward, making the scenario more of weak consolidation than trend reversal
• Weaker downside (medium weight; this weight is a subjective heuristic judgment based on current technicals and capital flows, not a statistical probability): Price range approximately RMB 51.80–53.20. Trigger conditions include an effective close below RMB 53.20, turnover expanding to approximately RMB 1.8–2.0 billion or more, and main capital continuing significant net outflow, or ChiNext and automation equipment sectors weakening in sync. If the current pivot support is breached on volume, the price may seek equilibrium at lower staged support zones; due to unreliable BOLL lower band data, precise judgment of lower targets cannot be made
• Rebound strengthening (relatively lower weight; this weight is a subjective heuristic judgment based on current technicals and capital flows, not a statistical probability): Price range approximately RMB 54.60–56.00. Trigger conditions include the share price re-establishing above RMB 54.60 and stabilizing above it for at least one consecutive trading day, daily turnover significantly exceeding the recent normal of approximately RMB 1.5–1.8 billion, reaching approximately RMB 2.0 billion or higher, and main capital turning to net inflow. If conditions are met, the price may rebound toward MA20 at approximately RMB 55.60 for repair, but against the backdrop of downward moving averages, negative MACD, and 5-day capital outflow, this cannot yet be regarded as confirmation of a medium-term trend reversal

③ Capital and Liquidity Background

As of September 11, 2026, Inovance Technology's turnover was approximately RMB 1.525 billion with a turnover rate of 1.17%; from September 8 to September 11, turnover was approximately RMB 1.360–1.783 billion, with turnover rates of approximately 1.03%–1.32%, below the median ChiNext turnover rate of 2.70% as of September 11. This indicates that the company's absolute turnover is relatively large, but relative to its tradable float and ChiNext overall, the rate of share turnover is not high, making short-term price direction more sensitive to large capital buying and selling. Regarding shareholder structure, as of the 2026-06-30 interim report, the total number of ordinary shareholders was 165,789, with the top ten shareholders collectively holding approximately 53.27%; Hong Kong Central Clearing Limited and Shenzhen Inovance Investment Co., Ltd. collectively held approximately 36.79%. The top ten shareholders mainly consist of Hong Kong Central Clearing, important company shareholders, management, or individual shareholders; among the top ten tradable shareholders disclosed by Tonghuashun, there is also National Social Security Fund Portfolio 114, approximately 1.35% of tradable shares, and China AMC CSI Robot ETF, approximately 0.98% of tradable shares, indicating some public fund/social security fund presence. The above shareholder data is as of June 30, 2026, more than two months from the current closing date, and cannot fully represent the latest shareholding structure as of September 11, 2026; Hong Kong Central Clearing's holdings also cannot be simply equated with a single institutional investor. In actual trading, this means overall liquidity is acceptable, but the rate of share turnover is not high; if large order direction is concentrated, price volatility and trading slippage may be more pronounced.

One checkable volume confirmation signal is: if subsequent daily turnover continuously expands to above RMB 2.0 billion, while the closing price re-establishes above RMB 54.60 accompanied by net main capital inflow, this can be regarded as an observation signal of improved short-term capital absorption; if turnover expands but the share price continues to fall below RMB 53.20, it is closer to a signal of volume-driven exit or selling pressure release.

④ Points to Watch (Observation Ideas Only, Not Trading Instructions)

• Observe whether the RMB 53.20–53.60 support zone shows stabilization and changes in turnover.
• Observe whether the RMB 54.00–54.60 resistance zone can be effectively broken with turnover expanding to approximately RMB 2.0 billion or more.
• Observe whether the 5-day main capital net outflow narrows and turns into consecutive net inflow.
• The above are all observation ideas, not buy, sell, or hold instructions.

The above scenario deduction is based on September 11, 2026 closing data and historical price and technical indicator calculations. Short-term share prices will also be affected by multiple factors including news, capital flows, and the broader market environment. Technical indicators themselves have lag and limitations, do not guarantee future actual movements, and do not constitute buy or sell recommendations. Please make independent judgments based on the latest market information and bear investment risks yourself.

6. Industry Landscape and Competitor Analysis

6.1 Industry Status

The company is a dual-main-business enterprise in industrial automation and new energy vehicle powertrain systems, a domestic import-substitution leader in core industrial control products such as general-purpose servo systems and low-voltage inverters, and the world's third-largest and China's largest third-party supplier in new energy passenger vehicle electronic control/electric drive. This search reached the tool step limit during the competitor comparison stage; except for individual cases, cross-verified market share/financial comparison figures for comparable companies could not be obtained one by one, and second verification is needed before citation.

6.2 Competitive Landscape

• General-purpose servo systems: No. 1 in the Chinese market. 2023 share approximately 28.2% → 2025 approximately 31% → 2026H1 approximately 35.2% (MIR Industry, by revenue).
• Low-voltage inverters: 2023 17.0% No. 2 (No. 1 among domestic players) → 2025 approximately 20% No. 1 → 2026H1 approximately 20.6% (MIR Industry).
• PLC: 2026H1 both medium/large PLC and small PLC shares ranked No. 1 among domestic brands.
• New energy passenger vehicle electronic control/electric drive: World's third-largest, China's largest third-party supplier; motor controller installations world No. 2; electronic control, motor stators, and drive assemblies ranked No. 1 among third-party suppliers (NE Times, 2026H1). Subsidiary Inovance Automotive is a global top-three third-party powertrain systems supplier (Frost & Sullivan, by 2025 revenue).
• Industrial robotics: 2025 China share 8.8% (shipments) No. 4, No. 2 among domestic players; SCARA robot share approximately 28% No. 1; 2026H1 industrial robot share 9.2% (No. 3, No. 2 among domestic players), SCARA approximately 25% No. 1.
• Digital energy (PCS): 2025 shipments world No. 5.

6.3 Main Competitors

Inovance's differentiated positioning lies in "platformization + full-stack technology + cross-industry replicability" (inverters/servos/PLCs/robotics/electric drive sharing the same technology foundation) and leading import-substitution share, with scale far exceeding domestic peers; domestic competitors mostly focus on a single product line or the mid-to-low end, while foreign competitors have advantages in high-end and overseas channels but at higher prices. Note: The above comparable company list is compiled based on industry common knowledge and companies appearing in the search; except for Megmeet, cross-verified market share/financial comparison figures could not be obtained one by one this time, and second verification is needed before citation.

7. Risk Warnings

• Risk of continued deterioration in new energy vehicle powertrain systems profitability: In H1 2026, this segment's gross margin was only 12.82%, and controlled subsidiary Inovance Automotive's net profit attributable to parent showed a loss of approximately RMB 88 million; if domestic new energy vehicle demand, product prices, or customer structure do not improve, the company's revenue growth may not translate into profit growth.
• Risk of OEM cost reduction and relatively high customer concentration: In 2025, the top five customers accounted for approximately 29.98% of revenue, with the first through third largest customers accounting for 8.15%, 8.12%, and 7.45%, respectively; the company explicitly warns of OEM cost pressure transmission and increased in-house production ratios potentially leading to product price reduction risk, and Inovance Automotive historically had even higher top five customer concentration.
• Raw material and chip supply chain risk: The company's procurement involves IGBT, SiC, MCU, DSP, memory chips, as well as copper, aluminum, rare earths, silicon steel, and other materials. The 2026 Interim Report has flagged risks of rising prices and insufficient supply of bulk commodities and semiconductor devices; if price increases cannot be passed downstream in a timely manner, it will further compress margins in the new energy and emerging businesses.
• Risk of pressure on accounts receivable and operating cash flow: The company's 2026Q1 accounts receivable turnover days were approximately 99.5 days, and H1 2026 net cash flow from operating activities was RMB 1.975 billion, down 34.60% year-on-year; if customer payment terms lengthen or collections slow, it may increase working capital tie-up and credit impairment pressure.
• Risk of declining growth and profitability in the industrial automation business: Industrial automation and digitalization is currently the company's high-margin profit foundation, with a gross margin of 41.37% in H1 2026; if manufacturing demand, import substitution progress, or market competition changes cause general automation growth to slow and price competition to intensify, the company's overall profit structure may come under pressure again.
• Risk of Hong Kong issuance/listing progress and financing arrangements: The H-share application still requires relevant CSRC, Hong Kong SFC, and HKEX filings or approvals, and regulators have required the company to provide supplementary explanations on overseas subsidiaries, foreign exchange registration, and use of raised funds, among other matters; listing timing, fundraising scale, and fund use arrangements are subject to uncertainty.
• Risk of investment income and exchange rate fluctuations affecting profit: In H1 2026, the company's investment income declined 90.14% year-on-year, financial expenses turned from negative in the prior-year period to positive, and exchange rate fluctuations reduced fair value change gains from overseas funds; if such fluctuations continue, it may further cause divergence between net profit attributable to parent and core business performance.
• Share price technical and liquidity risk: As of September 11, 2026, the share price closed at RMB 53.52, below major short- and medium-term moving averages, with MACD negative and net main capital outflow of approximately RMB 328 million over the past 5 days; although RSI is in the extreme oversold zone, oversold does not equal trend reversal, and if support near RMB 53.20 fails, short-term weakness may continue.

8. Conclusion and Outlook

Inovance Technology's growth logic still lies in share gains in the industrial automation business, import substitution, product platformization, and expansion of emerging businesses such as robotics and digital energy. In H1 2026, general automation revenue and gross margin both performed strongly; the incorporation of WiTSnet into the IEC international industrial communication standards system, preparation for the H-share listing, and the spin-off listing of subsidiary Inovance Automotive also provide potential support for the technology system, financing channels, and independent business development. If the share of high-margin industrial automation and emerging businesses continues to increase, while the new energy powertrain systems business achieves platform-based cost reduction and profitability recovery, the company's overall profit growth is expected to gradually improve.

The key to short-term performance repair lies in the profitability of the new energy vehicle powertrain systems business, not just revenue scale growth. In H1 2026, this segment's revenue still grew, but the gross margin declined to 12.82%, and Inovance Automotive posted a loss, indicating that demand fluctuations, raw material price increases, OEM cost reduction, and relatively high customer concentration continue to suppress profits. The market has considerable divergence in 2026–2028 revenue and profit forecasts, and subsequent focus should be on whether powertrain systems gross margin, Inovance Automotive profitability, industrial automation growth, emerging business profit quality, and operating cash flow can improve in tandem.

The company has submitted an H-share issuance and listing application to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, but still needs to fulfill overseas listing-related regulatory filing and approval procedures, with uncertainty in progress and fundraising scale. Combined with the currently weak technical pattern of the share price, significant differences in valuation bases, and the absence of a clear sustained absorption signal in capital flows, future share price performance may continue to be affected by earnings delivery, business mix changes, Hong Kong listing progress, and market risk appetite.
