In face of the internal

4、and external shocks at the beginning of the year, TCL adhered to the established strategies and business plans, and put forward the business strategy of Ramp up, Catch up. It identified opportunities amid the challenges, scaled up business against headwinds, and forged ahead to bring up the competit

5、iveness to a new level. Business Review for 2020 In the Reporting Period, on the same basis after the 2019 spin-off, the Group recorded a revenue of RMB76.68 billion, up by 33.9% year-on-year; a net profit of RMB5.07 billion, up by 42.1% year-on-year; a net profit attributable to the companys shareh

6、olders of RMB4.39 billion, up by 67.6% year-on-year; a debt/asset ratio of 65.1% and the net cash flow generated from operating activities of RMB16.7 billion. As stated above, the operating efficiency of the Company continued to improve and all the financial objectives were over-fulfilled for the ye

7、ar. TCL CSOT maintained a leading operating efficiency in the current period, as demonstrated by its revenue of RMB46.77 billion, rising by 37.6% year-on-year, and net profit of RMB2.42 billion, up by 151.1% year-on-year. Through technological reform and efficiency enhancement, the capacity of the t

8、3 (LTPS) production line in Wuhan grew from 48K to 53K. The t4 production line (OLED) Phase I produced at full capacity while Phases II and III were under rapid contruction as scheduled. The t1t2 and t6 (G11) production lines in Shenzhen continued to operate at full capacity for strong sales. Especi

9、ally, the capacity of the t6 production line increased from 90K to 98K. The shipment area of large-size products climbed by 32.9%. Thanks to the increasing market demand for LCD products across the world, prices of large-size LCD panels began to rise in June, boosting the operating profit of TCL CSO

10、T month by month. TCL CSOT constantly raised its R&D investments in new display technologies, such as printed OLED, QLED, Micro-LED and related key materials and equipment, and made a great stride forward. In the Reporting Period, the PCT applications of the Company increased by 1,536 and the accumu

11、lated PCT applications reached 12,797. Meanwhile, the company made a strategic investment in JOLED Inc., aiming to expand the footprint in next-generation display technologies. TCL Technology Group Corporation Annual Report 2020 3 During the Reporting Period, the Group successfully acquired Tianjin

12、Zhonghuan Electronics Group Co., Ltd. (Zhonghuan Electronics), which holds a controlling interest in Tianjin Zhonghuan Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (002129.sz) and Tianjin Printronics Circuit Corporation (002134.sz) respectively, as well as other assets including Zhonghuan Computer. Following the acquisi

13、tion in late September, Zhonghuan Electronics has been included in the consolidated financial statements since October 2020. Through the acquisition, the Group has entered the industries of semi-conductor photovoltaic and semi-conductor materials. Business Forecast for 2021 In 2021, imbalance betwee

14、n the supply and demand of LCD panel is expected to remain, due to the short of chips and glass and the delayed new capacity. It is predicted that product prices will remain high in the first half of the year, while the second half will witness a balance of supply and demand. Higher demand for LTPS

15、panels will come from vehicle display and IT products, as supply and demand come close to a balance. In recent years, the OLED capacity has been raised quickly. The monopolistic advantage of leading enterprises has turned increasingly apparent. Hence, the competition will be extremely fierce. Phase

16、I of the t7(G11) plant of TCL CSOT in Shenzhen has been put into production. The LCD and module plant of Samsung in Suzhou acquired by the Company are estimated to be consolidated in the second quarter of this year. In view of this, the shipment and revenue of LCD panels will jump significantly. The

17、 t3 (LTPS) production line of Wuhan CSOT has stepped into vehicle display and IT industries with positive performance. A 39.95% non-controlling interest of the t3 production line has been repurchased, lifting the profit in the current period. Though t4 still faces fierce competition in OLED, we will

18、 endeavor to improve our operating results. We expect a strong growth in both revenue and profitability of TCL CSOT in 2021. Zhonghuan Semiconductor will release its endogenous power through reform, while optimizing its development strategy, promoting innovation in products and technologies forward,

19、 and reinforcing quality and profitability. It is estimated that its business performance will go up continuously and contribute more to the revenue and profit of the Group this year. The industrial finance and investment business will help raise profit in line with the development plan. The operati

20、ng results of Highly, TPC, and other businesses are expected to rise steadily. I am confident that the revenue and profit of the Group will increase remarkably this year. TCL Technology Group Corporation Annual Report 2020 4 Strategic Development Planning The Group has kept promoting business reform

21、 and transformation since 2017 to intensify its core competitiveness. In 2019, it completed the spin-off of businesses like terminal products, and focused on high-tech, heavy-asset and long-cycle industries. Business strategies, organizational procedures, and resource allocation were adjusted accord

22、ingly. The Group will further its business development in accordance with the operating strategy regarding improving operating quality and profitability, consolidating advantages and improving disadvantages, accelerating global layout, and driving development via innovation. The semi-conductor displ

23、ay business is a core business of the Group. Through the acquisition of Zhonghuan Semiconductor, the Group extended its presence to the semi-conductor photovoltaic and semi-conductor materials industry. The above two industries own the features of high technology, huge investment, and a long industr

24、ial cycle. In the meantime, long-term strategic management, business capacity across the industrial cycle, and constant financing ability are a must. Furthermore, we must maintain a technological leadership, achieve the best business scale, and plan development strategies with the goal of global lea

25、dership. These are exactly the core capabilities and business logic of the Group. The reason why we have chosen these two core industries lies in that China has built up an industry scale and a competitive edge across the globe in the semi-conductor photovoltaic and in LCD field of semi-conductor di

26、splay industries. Moreover, Zhonghuan Semiconductor and TCL CSOT have distinguished themselves to become industry leaders. With the growth in global demand and industry concentration, more opportunities and challenges will be brought. The 9205 five-year strategic development plan of the Group specif

27、ies that Zhonghuan Semiconductor will reinforce its strengths in monocrystalline silicon products, improve its capacity in the photovoltaic industrial chain, and intensify its global business capacity in order to meet the dual goals of global leadership in the photovoltaic industry and national lead

28、ership in the semi-conductor silicon-wafer industry. Meanwhile, TCL CSOT is expected to improve its strengths in LCD and LTPS, make technical breakthroughs in new display technologies and materials so as to become a leading player in the semi-conductor display industry worldwide. TCLs industrial fin

29、ance and investment business supports the development of the Groups other businesses and contributes steadily improving income. In terms of industrial finance, the Group features both highly efficient internal fund management and external financing and supply chain TCL Technology Group Corporation A

30、nnual Report 2020 5 financial services. With respect to capital and investment, TCL has established a differentiated competitive edge in the corresponding field and turned capital and investment into a core business. In short, the core businesses of the Group consist of three business segments, name

31、ly, the semi-conductor display business, the semi-conductor photovoltaic and semi-conductor materials business, and the industrial finance and investment business. TCL selects suitable projects related to the core industrial chain and gradually perfects the industrial ecosystem. In addition, it aims

32、 to achieve the strategic goal of global leadership in the two core businesses. Subsidiaries including Highly and TPC embraced robust operations and sustainable profitability. The Group will continuously support their independent development and business expansion. Prospects There are great uncertai

33、nties in global economic recovery. Trade protectionism and unilateralism aggravate. I believe that: the advantages of China include social stability, efficient governance, sufficient economic vitality, huge domestic demand, rapid progress in science and technology, and an apparent relative competiti

34、ve advantage in manufacturing. However, Chinas disadvantages lie in inadequate quality and profitability of economic development, insufficient core technical capabilities, rapid growth in government debts, and huge risks in finance and enterprise debts, which may affect Chinas economic progress. Thi

35、s year, China has put forward and implemented the 14th Five-year Plan to build a new development pattern. The government will continue to vigorously support the real economy, especially manufacturing, strengthen Chinas comparative advantage in manufacturing in the global economy and improve the comp

36、etitiveness and value of enterprises. More capital will flow to manufacturing. In other words, the excellent manufacturing industry will access more resources. Chinas manufacturing industry has shifted its competitive edge from efficiency and cost control to products, technologies and global operati

37、ons, and will usher in a new development period. Manufacturing constitutes the basis of Chinas economic competitiveness. Based on the established industry foundation and rapid growth in domestic demand, Chinese enterprises will catch up with leading players in the high-tech manufacturing field and d

38、evelop a competitive edge, which signifies both challenges and opportunities. Personally, I am confident of the prospects of Chinas high-tech manufacturing! The semi-conductor display industry and the semi-conductor photovoltaic and semi-conductor TCL Technology Group Corporation Annual Report 2020

39、6 materials industry, as two strategic and emerging industries, embrace huge markets and promising prospects. We have laid a favorable foundation and accumulated strength in the two industries. TCL will embark on new industry planning and distribution in conformity with the 9205 strategic plan. The
