As for the reason for the sharp increase in the company's performance, Shengxin Lithium Neng explained that it was mainly due to the rapid development of the company's new energy industry and the strong growth in downstream customer demand for lithium salt during the reporting period. the company's production and sales volume and sales price of lithium salt rose sharply compared with the same period last year.
Public data show that Shengxin Lithium Energy is mainly engaged in the production and sales of new energy lithium materials, including lithium concentrate, lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, metal lithium and other products.
According to the historical price of SMM, the price of lithium salts led by lithium carbonate rose rapidly in 2021, among which the price of battery-grade lithium carbonate rose from 53000 yuan / ton at the beginning of 2021 to 275000 yuan / ton at the end of 2021, an increase of 419%.

The rising trend of lithium carbonate has not slowed down in 2022, and now its average spot price has reached 360000 yuan / ton. SMM believes that considering that the entire new energy vehicle market will continue to increase after the festival, while the supply-side overseas lithium raw material increment is relatively small, there is still a gap in raw materials for enterprises, SMM expects lithium carbonate prices to continue to rise.
