SMM5 March 7: Dazhi Technology said that the company plans to issue RMB common shares to no more than 35 specific targets, including Hengling Power, the number of shares shall not exceed 30% of the total share capital of the company before the non-public offering, that is, no more than 31.6827 million shares (including capital), and the total amount of funds raised shall not exceed 1.073 billion yuan (including capital), of which Hengling Power shall subscribe for no less than 400 million yuan (including capital).

The funds raised will be invested in the "Lithium Ion Power Battery (2.4GWh) Construction Project" and "High performance Power Battery Research and Development Center Project", with an investment of 570 million yuan and 503 million yuan respectively.

Among them, the lithium power battery (2.4GWh) construction project plans to build an annual capacity 2.4GWh lithium power battery production line in Hengyang, Hunan province. The products are mainly lithium power batteries based on MEB platform, and the main technical route is square aluminum shell power batteries with laminated high nickel silicon carbon system. The products will be used in new energy electric vehicles, energy storage and other related fields.

The construction period of the project is 11 months. After reaching production, it is estimated that the average annual sales income is 1.67409 billion yuan, the average annual pre-tax profit is 240.03 million yuan, the investment payback period (after tax) is about 6.25 years (including the construction period), and the internal rate of return (after tax) is 20.75%.

It is understood that Wang Lei, the controller of Dazhi Technology, is the spouse of Weimar Motor CEO Shenhui and one of Weimar's core figures. He holds a 11.73% stake in Weimar Wisdom Travel and serves as a supervisor at Weimar Motors.

In September 2019, Wang Lei accepted a 16.68% stake in Dazhi Technology through the establishment of Hengpa Power, and obtained 41.2% of the voting rights of listed companies.

In early 2020, Dazhi Technology signed an equity grant agreement with Shanghai Lingpa, under which the listed company freely transferred 80% of the shares held by Shanghai Lingpa in Hunan Xinminya and Sichuan Xinminya.

At the end of April, the listed company again signed an equity transfer agreement with Shanghai Lingpa, intending to transfer 20% of the shares of Xinminya in Hunan and 20% in Sichuan. Upon completion of the equity changes, the two companies will become wholly owned subsidiaries of listed companies.

Dazhi Technology said that at present, the company's main business is the research and development, production and sales of new environmental protection surface engineering chemicals, as well as new energy power battery business. The company's surface engineering chemicals business has a certain scale and market share, in the forefront of market segmentation. However, the surface engineering chemicals business industry of the company has a high degree of marketization and fierce competition, and the long-term rapid growth is faced with certain challenges. In order to seek new profit growth points and maximize shareholder value, the company has invested in lithium-ion power battery (2.4GWh) project construction and high-performance power battery R & D center project, which is the company's implementation of new energy power battery business development strategy and measures to enhance the company's comprehensive competitiveness, which is conducive to enhancing the long-term risk resistance.

[SMM Chromium Flash] Eastplats' Q2 Chrome Concentrate Output Falls 24.5% YoY on Lower Processing Tonnages

Eastern Platinum Limited (TSX: ELR; JSE: EPS) reported chrome concentrate production of 14,921 mt at its Crocodile River Mine (CRM) in the second quarter of 2026, down 24.5% from 19,768 mt in the second quarter of 2025, with average chrome grade broadly stable at 40.38% versus 40.74% a year earlier. Interim CEO Charlie Liu said the quarter was challenging, as monthly run-of-mine processing tonnages at CRM came in lower than targeted, and said the company will continue to focus on operational efficiencies to improve PGM and chrome production. Revenue for the quarter fell 25.8% to $7.9 million from $10.7 million in the prior-year period, driven by reduced sales volumes of both platinum-group metals and chrome concentrates. Net loss attributable to equity shareholders widened to $6.1 million, or $0.03 per share, from $1.8 million in the second quarter of 2025. Mine operating income swung to a loss of $4.2 million from a profit of $0.36 million a year earlier, with gross margin falling to -53% from 3%. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, revenue declined 14.8% to $21.7 million from $25.5 million in the same period of 2025, while mine operating loss narrowed slightly to $3.6 million from $4.3 million, aided by a marginal improvement in gross margin to -16.4% from -16.9%. CRM, on the western limb of South Africa's Bushveld Complex near Brits, produces PGM and chrome concentrates as co-products from ore mined at the Zandfontein underground section. The majority of Eastplats' revenue, approximately 78% in the second quarter and 80% year-to-date, comes from PGM concentrate sales to Impala Platinum under existing offtake agreements, with chrome concentrate sales making up the remainder. The company did not disclose a specific breakdown of revenue attributable to chrome concentrate sales alone within the reported figures.

[SMM Chromium Flash] NRZ Commissions Refurbished Wagons Under $2.8m Zimasco Rail Partnership

Zimbabwe's National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) has increased its operational capacity following the refurbishment of 100 high-sided wagons and three locomotives under a US$2.8 million public-private partnership with ferrochrome producer Zimasco. The refurbished rolling stock was commissioned in Harare on Thursday by Transport Minister Felix Mhona. Mhona described the partnership as an innovative financing model that revives idle railway assets without placing an immediate burden on the Treasury, while securing a reliable export route for Zimasco's chrome through the ports of Beira and Maputo. "This partnership exemplifies a win-win financial engineering model. By funding the overhaul of idle wagons in exchange for freight charge offsets, Zimasco has secured a reliable supply chain route to international markets," Mhona said, adding that NRZ had expanded its operational capacity without an immediate fiscal burden on the Treasury. The minister described rail as the cheapest and safest mode of moving bulk cargo, saying the investment would help ease logistics bottlenecks, protect rehabilitated roads from damage caused by heavy trucks, and improve the competitiveness of Zimbabwean chrome exports. He urged other mining companies to adopt similar partnership models, noting that government, working with the Mutapa Investment Fund, is pursuing larger rail recapitalisation projects, including track and signalling upgrades and new locomotives through Afreximbank. Separately, Mhona said US$10 million had been secured for the Chicualacuala-Plumtree and Machipanda-Harare railway lines through tripartite cooperation involving Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Botswana, and that cooperation with South Africa on the North-South Corridor had also been revived.
