On September 15, Evergrande announced that it would obtain an investment of about HK$ 4 billion by placing new shares. This is the first financing of Evergrande. The list of investors is "big coffee", including Tencent Holdings, Didi Chuxing, Sequoia Capital and Yunfeng Fund. Among them, Yunfeng Fund is a private equity fund co-founded by Ma Yun and Yu Feng, founder of Juzhong Media, and a group of entrepreneurs. This is also a rare time for Ali and Tencent to invest in the same new energy automobile company at the same time.
In recent years, Internet giants have laid out new energy automobile companies. Ali invested in Xpeng, Tencent invested in Weilai and Tesla, and Meituan invested in Li. At the same time, Evergrande Automobile Co., Ltd. won the "Mar" shares and was favored by capital institutions. Analysts said that Evergrande's development prospects and investment value are worthy of optimism.
In fact, the development of new energy vehicles in the past few years has also proved that investing in new energy vehicle enterprises can obtain considerable financial returns. Tencent, for example, acquired 8 167500 Tesla shares in 20 17. At that time, Tesla's share price was $265438 +07.67. According to the share split of Tesla 1 5 this year, the highest share price still reaches 498.32 USD/US stock, and Tencent's revenue in three years exceeds 10 times. Similarly, Tencent invested in Weilai before its listing. After listing, Weilai's share price rose from $6.29 at the time of IPO to $ 18.73 now (September 2020 14, EST), which also brought huge benefits to Tencent.
However, building a car to "burn money" is also the only way. Previously, the semi-annual report released by Evergrande Automobile showed that the revenue in the first half of the year was 4.565438 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 70%; Gross profit increased by 107% to 126 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of107%; However, due to the expansion of new energy vehicle business, the net loss reached 2.46 billion yuan.
However, for Evergrande, the current losses are normal investments. Pan Zeng, chief financial officer of Evergrande Automobile, said that the company plans to invest 29.4 billion yuan in automobile business. In 20 19, it has invested14.7 billion yuan, 3 billion yuan in the first half of this year and 9 billion yuan in 27 yuan in the second half. There will be no new investment after the mass production and sales of Evergrande.
At present, six new cars have appeared in Evergrande, including cars, coupes, SUVs and MPVs. At the same time, the two production bases in Shanghai and Guangzhou have also entered the stage of installation and debugging, and mass production is planned to be realized in the second half of 20021. Previously, Evergrande has invested in Shanghai Kanai New Energy, Swedish supercar company Koenigsegg, German automotive power engineering company Hofer and hub motor company Dutch e-Traction through the "buy-in-buy" mode, and established a relatively complete industrial chain.
Now with the support of new capital, what kind of market performance Evergrande will have in the future is worth looking forward to.
