Tinci's Profit Surges on Battery Material Demand and Higher Prices
First-half profit to jump over 10x on strong demand and pricing Tinci expects H1 net profit of 2.7–3.0 billion yuan, up 908–1,020% year-on-year. Electrolyte shipments rose over 40% and capacity is near full. Higher product prices from a better supply-demand balance lifted margins. This directly boosts earnings and the stock price.

Redirects 406 million yuan to 250,000-ton electrolyte expansion Tinci is moving 406 million yuan from an older project into a new 250,000-ton electrolyte expansion. The project costs 598 million yuan, takes 18 months, and is expected to add 3.876 billion yuan in annual revenue and 159 million yuan in net profit. This signals confidence in future demand and supports long-term growth.
Shows concrete capital allocation to expand capacity, a positive for future earnings.
Industry-wide battery material price surge drives expansion wave Prices for electrolyte additives and lithium carbonate have soared, with one additive up nearly five times year-on-year. Tinci and peers are investing about 30 billion yuan in new projects.
