The former US president was shot and assassinated, but a Chinese listed company actually won without doing anything.

Early in the morning of July 15, Sichuan University Zhisheng (002253) hit the daily limit at 11.22 yuan, ranking second on the Flush Stock Popularity List.

Sichuan University Zhisheng was stunned by the stock price limit."The cause cannot be determined and the company's operations are normal."

But netizens know the answer: it is because of former US President Trump. In Chinese, Trump is translated as "Trump".The words "Trump, Victory" are hidden in the name of Chuanda Zhisheng. Therefore, people regard its literal meaning as a prediction of Trump's victory.

On July 13, local time in the United States, Trump was shot at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, but fortunately, Trump only suffered an ear injury in the end. According to the Daily Economic News,After the incident, foreign prediction platforms showed that Trump's chances of winning the election soared to 71%. Sichuan University Zhisheng, a "Trump concept stock", also picked up a wave of "bonuses".

In fact, as early as 2016, when Trump won the election, Sichuan University Zhisheng's stock price soared. On June 28 this year, during the first debate of the US presidential election, Sichuan University Zhisheng's stock price also hit the daily limit.

It is worth noting that, in addition to the "Trump concept" that investors are playing with, Sichuan University Zhisheng itself is not a "useless" junk stock. The predecessor of Sichuan University Zhisheng was the Image and Graphics Research Institute established by the Department of Computer Science of Sichuan University with its own funds. Chairman You Zhisheng has been teaching at the Department of Computer Science of Sichuan University since 1983.

Public information shows that its main business is in several small branches of the aviation industry. Its traditional business involves civil aviation and military air traffic control command and control system development, software development and services. Its main products include civil aviation air traffic control automation systems, military aviation control center systems at all levels and airspace management systems, control safety protection systems, military and civil aviation multi-channel digital synchronous recorders, etc.; civil aviation and military air traffic control simulation training system products and services, including radar control simulators, procedural control simulators, tower control simulators and controller flight training simulators, etc.; Class D flight simulator training services that are required for the annual license renewal of on-the-job pilots of airlines.

In addition to the "Trump concept", Sichuan University Zhisheng also has many other popular concepts.

For example, this year's most popular“Low-altitude economy”Concept, Sichuan University Zhisheng has independently developed a low-altitude surveillance radar system designed for low-altitude safety control needs.

In addition, Sichuan University Zhisheng also involvesAIThe company is also the overall leader of the "Intelligent Human-Machine Interface Innovation Consortium", one of the first three artificial intelligence innovation consortia built in Sichuan Province;"Huawei Concept"In terms of technology, Sichuan University Zhisheng is one of Huawei's first 15 ecological partners, and has cooperated with Huawei on Ascend and Kunpeng servers.

Although the core competitiveness is strong, the performance is indeed somewhat disappointing.

The annual report shows that Sichuan University Zhisheng's operating income in 2023 was 180 million yuan, a year-on-year decline of 26.92%; the net profit was -172 million yuan, a sharp year-on-year decline of 196.29% compared with the loss of 57.9378 million yuan in 2022, marking the largest loss since its listing.

Previously, from 2020 to 2022, its revenue was 357 million, 301 million, and 245 million respectively; the net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company was 67.3877 million, 25.2092 million, and -57.9378 million respectively. It can be seen thatIn the past four years, Sichuan University Zhisheng's revenue and net profit have continued to decline, and its net profit turned from profit to loss in 2022, and the loss is still expanding.

In addition, its gross profit margin has also dropped significantly. In 2023, Sichuan University Zhisheng's gross profit margin was 4.23%, while in 2022, the figure was 14.85%.

As a result, Sichuan University Zhisheng was questioned by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and asked to explain whether there are major uncertainties in its ability to continue operating its main business.

By the first half of 2024, Sichuan University Zhisheng's losses were still expanding.On July 10, Sichuan University Zhisheng released its 2024 semi-annual performance forecast, showing that its net loss attributable to shareholders of listed companies was 17 million to 23 million, a year-on-year decrease of 45.36% to 96.66%; the net loss after deducting non-recurring gains and losses was 22 million to 28 million, a year-on-year decrease of 37.80% to 75.38%.

According to its explanation, the main reason for the performance change is that in the first half of 2024, affected by the market environment, the company's traditional business's existing contracts and newly signed contracts in this period have decreased, which directly led to a decline in revenue and sales gross profit from contract execution during the reporting period.

It is worth noting that shortly before the results were announced, the general manager and independent director of Sichuan University Zhisheng resigned.
