SMM4, April 30: on the evening of April 29, Yahua Group disclosed a plan for the non-public offering of A shares. The number of non-public shares issued this time does not exceed 287 million shares (including the number of shares), and the issuing objects are specific investors who do not exceed 35 (including 35). The total amount of funds to be raised does not exceed 1.5 billion yuan (including capital). After deducting the issuance fee, it will be used for an additional 20, 000 tons of battery-grade lithium hydroxide, 11000 tons of lithium chloride and its products and supplementary liquidity.

Yahua Group said that lithium products are widely used, strong demand, ternary batteries used in new energy vehicles has become a trend, will drive the market demand for lithium hydroxide. The company's existing products lithium hydroxide, lithium carbonate are mainly used in the production of lithium battery cathode materials. Lithium chloride is mainly used in the production of metal lithium, can also be used in aluminum welding, special cement production additives, catalysts and so on. Lithium metal is mainly used in the production of lithium battery anode materials, can also be used in the production of lithium aluminum, lithium magnesium and other alloy materials. After the implementation of the project of "adding 20, 000 tons of battery grade lithium hydroxide, 11000 tons of lithium chloride and their products", the company can supply not only the raw materials of positive electrode materials for lithium batteries, but also the raw materials of negative electrode materials, thus enriching the variety of lithium products of the company.

In addition, with the continued growth in sales of new energy vehicles in the future, the company's main customers will also plan to increase production capacity, resulting in a significant increase in demand for battery-grade lithium hydroxide (lithium chloride, lithium metal). The company's capacity planning is mainly based on the increment of lithium salt demand brought about by the new capacity planning of existing major customers and potential customers. The implementation of 20, 000 tons of battery-grade lithium hydroxide, 11000 tons of lithium chloride and their products will be able to effectively meet customer needs, further deepen bilateral cooperation, and maintain and enhance the company's market position in the industry. According to the announcement, after the completion of the project, the average annual sales income will be 2.128 billion yuan, and the average annual net profit will be 280 million yuan.

In addition, some netizens asked on the interactive platform what is the progress of lithium mining in Sichuan, whether batch production and use of mine resources? When is it scheduled to go into production in 2020? Ya Hua Group said that it has fully resumed production, is carrying out normal construction, and is expected to be put into production in 2021.

[Solid-State Battery: Nine Departments' 15th Five-Year Plan Incorporates Automotive Solid-State Batteries into Specialised Standards System, Accelerating Supply of Cutting-Edge Technology Standards] On 9 September 2026, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) and eight other departments issued the 15th Five-Year Plan for the Development of the Intelligent Connected New Energy Vehicle Industry (MIIT Joint Regulation Letter [2026] No. 305). In the task of "continuously improving the standards system," the Plan specifies the ongoing establishment and refinement of specialised standards systems for automotive chips, automotive software, automotive artificial intelligence, automotive solid-state batteries, and low-carbon development of automobiles. In the task of "accelerating the supply of cutting-edge cross-disciplinary standards," it further proposes accelerating the formulation of frontier technology standards for automotive artificial intelligence, cockpit-driving integration, solid-state batteries, distributed electric drive, fully active suspension, integrated driving units, and chassis fusion control. The Plan does not establish a separate special clause for the industrialisation of solid-state batteries; the relevant arrangements primarily focus on standards taking the lead, providing regulatory support for subsequent technological breakthroughs and large-scale application.

China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and eight other departments jointly issued the 15th Five-Year plan for intelligent connected NEVs. By 2030, NEV passenger cars and commercial vehicles are targeted to reach 70% and 40% of new vehicle sales in their segments, with autonomous driving at scale and average EV energy consumption around 11.5 kWh per 100 km. The plan outlines 17 key tasks across five areas, including coordinated mining and recycling of lithium, cobalt and nickel resources, standards for vehicle solid-state batteries, wider use of electric heavy-duty trucks in trunk logistics, and a carbon peak in the auto industry before 2030.

[SMM Cobalt-Lithium Morning Meeting Summary] Raw Material Divergence Intensifies; Peak Season Demand Uneven, Prices Consolidate
This week, the industry chain continued to diverge. On the lithium side, lithium carbonate drifted lower, but downstream stockpiling willingness near 140,000 yuan/mt remained strong, providing support for prices. Lithium ore pulled back accordingly, though overseas supply disruptions and mines holding prices firm kept ore prices relatively resilient. Lithium hydroxide was affected by reduced ternary orders, with transactions remaining weak. The materials segment was under pressure overall, with ternary cathode precursors, ternary cathode materials, and LCO continuing to weaken due to raw material pullbacks and insufficient end-use demand. China production schedules declined somewhat, while overseas high-nickel orders remained relatively good. LFP demand stayed robust, with production and sales holding at high levels. Iron phosphate orders increased, and prices edged up. Anode prices were broadly stable, with artificial graphite still having upside room supported by peak-season production schedules and cost support. High-end separator specifications saw tight supply-demand, with expectations of future price increases. Electrolyte cost support strengthened, with short-term stability for now. Sodium-ion batteries remained constrained by insufficient effective anode and cathode capacity, while the recycling market continued to remain under pressure amid raw material price fluctuations.
