What Yantai Zhenghai Magnetic Material does

Shandong maker of high-performance NdFeB permanent magnets, mainly supplying electric-vehicle motor makers.

Sells made-to-order magnets directly to motor makers, with Chinese EV makers the largest buyers, and prices that follow the cost of the rare-earth metals inside. Each magnet grade is approved by the customer, which keeps supply relationships for years. It is setting up plants abroad so it can supply carmakers near their own factories.

In one line: A Chinese NdFeB magnet supplier feeding EV motors.

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Materials
  • Rare-earth magnets
  • Sintered NdFeB magnet production

What could go right

  • EV motor magnet demand
  • Wind turbine and consumer electronics magnet demand

What could go wrong

  • Customer concentration (top 5 ~45% of sales)
  • Rare-earth raw material cost swings

Moat: narrow (customer qualification, process know-how). NEV makers made up 62% of 2025 revenue; qualified magnet supply relationships are sticky.

How has Yantai Zhenghai Magnetic Material stock performed?
Over six months to 6 Nov 2026 the shares returned -0.6% against -28.2% for the median peer; over one year -18.6%.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
