Strive Hard in Q1 to Secure a Promising Start
--Zhongtan New Materials Achieves Strong First-quarter Business Results
In the first quarter of 2026, the company stuck to annual development goals and coordinated production, sales, quality improvement and cost reduction. All employees worked diligently to fully unleash production capacity of core procedures and overfulfill business indicators, scoring remarkable achievements and laying a solid foundation for high-quality development throughout the year.
Full-capacity Production Ensures Stable Supply

The two calcination workshops in Zhongzhou and Lufeng operated at full load to guarantee steady supply of calcined coke and steam, with output far exceeding quarterly plans.
The Zhongzhou Calcination Workshop overcame difficulties to stabilize production and improve quality, turning out 25,916 tons of calcined coke, reaching 108% of the quarterly target, and 29,287 tons of steam, hitting 111% of the quota. The Lufeng Calcination Workshop achieved outstanding results with 23,785 tons of calcined coke (113% of target) and 27,420 tons of steam (125% of target). Joint efforts reliably satisfied downstream production and market demands.
New Production Line Boosts Product Yield

Capacity expansion and process optimization advanced simultaneously. The No.3 machining line was officially put into operation on March 28, injecting new momentum into productivity growth. Refined workshop management drove a leap in product yield. The average yield stood at 80.67% in Q1, up 10 percentage points against the full-year level of 2025 and well above the planned figure. The newly-launched line and improved yield greatly enhanced processing capability, production efficiency and product competitiveness.
Cost Reduction Drives Business Profit Growth
Centering on cost control and efficiency improvement, the company implemented refined full-process management and targeted measures in logistics and procurement, exceeding all quarterly cost-cutting targets.
Transportation costs were cut by 190,000 yuan via route optimization, resource integration and favorable negotiation, achieving 129% of the quarterly goal. Raw material substitution, supplier selection and procurement structure adjustment helped slash purchasing expenses by over 1.57 million yuan, completing 174% of the set target. Cost advantages were successfully converted into market competitiveness, supporting stable and sound business operation.
Active Market Expansion Delivers Robust Sales
The sales team proactively expanded client resources, cleared inventory and boosted sales volume, bringing explosive growth in graphite electrode sales. A total of 3,479 tons of graphite electrodes were sold in the quarter, outperforming expectations.
The company will further optimize production management, advance technological innovation, expand market share and control operational costs, striving to fulfill annual objectives and forge ahead toward sustained high-quality development.
