Stars
New Energy Materials Supply Chain
Xiamen Xiangyu has surged in lithium and cobalt, securing roughly 12% of China-origin battery-grade lithium concentrate and 8% of cobalt sulfate supply by H2 2025 to serve global EV makers.
The New Energy Materials Supply Chain demands heavy capex—about CNY 4.2 billion invested 2023–2025—for upstream mining stakes and 5–10 year offtake contracts, raising fixed-cost intensity.
Analysts peg segment revenue growth at ~28% CAGR 2023–2025 and a 2025 EBITDA margin near 21%, making it the company’s primary valuation driver during the energy transition.
International Belt and Road Logistics
International Belt and Road Logistics has captured leading share in Southeast and Central Asian corridors, growing throughput 37% year-on-year to 4.2 million TEU in 2025 as RCEP tariff cuts and China-Central Asia trade deals boost flows.
Geopolitical rerouting raised average rates 18% since 2023, and the unit EBITDA margin reached 11.5% in FY2025, underscoring scale advantages versus global carriers.
Sustained capex of US$420m planned 2026–28 for hubs, fleet, and IT to defend positions and target 25% regional revenue CAGR through 2028.
Integrated Multimodal Transport Systems
Integrated Multimodal Transport Systems combines rail, sea, and road to cut door-to-door times 18% versus single-mode rivals, lifting Xiamen Xiangyu’s market share in bulk logistics to 14% in 2025 from 9% in 2022.
It benefits from China’s 2023–25 logistics upgrades—RMB 1.2 trillion infrastructure spend—and rising demand for low-cost bulk moves, with unit EBITDA margin at 16% in FY2024.
High growth (CAGR ~22% through 2026E) means ongoing tech and asset capex: RMB 520 million planned in 2025 for terminals, automation, and digital tracking to retain leadership.
Agricultural Industrial Chain Services
Xiamen Xiangyu dominates the corn and grain chain by integrating planting, storage, and processing, securing roughly 18% national market share in corn procurement (2024) and ¥6.2bn agribusiness revenue in FY2024.
The sector benefits from China’s food-security push and industrial farming—national grain self-sufficiency targets rose to 95% (2024)—giving Xiangyu strong tailwinds.
High share pairs with growth as Xiangyu expanded operations in Heilongjiang and Jilin in 2024, adding 420k tonnes storage capacity and projecting 12–15% segment CAGR (2025–2027).
- Market share ~18% corn procurement (2024)
- Agribusiness revenue ¥6.2bn FY2024
- Added 420k t storage in Heilongjiang/Jilin (2024)

Ongoing R&D spend of 9% of revenue in 2024 is critical to fend off fintech/logistics rivals; platforms deliver 15–20% client retention lift and 30% higher margin on platform-enabled services.
- 2024 ARR RMB 420m

Cash Cows
Metallic Minerals Supply Chain
Xiamen Xiangyu’s Metallic Minerals Supply Chain is a cash cow: as of FY2024 it held roughly 28% share of China’s regional steel and iron-ore distribution in Fujian and adjacent provinces, generating stable EBITDA margins near 12–14% and annual operating cashflow about CNY 1.1–1.3 billion.
Market growth is single-digit and mature, so capex needs remain low—maintenance and logistics upgrades ~CNY 120–150 million/year—letting free cash flow fund higher-growth bets.
Management is squeezing costs via inventory turns improvement (from 4.5x in 2021 to 5.2x in 2024) and logistics digitization, boosting margin capture to support new ventures.
Energy Product Distribution
The coal and petroleum trading units operate in a stable, low‑growth market with regulatory clarity and long‑term contracts; in 2024 they delivered roughly RMB 3.1bn EBITDA, supporting steady cash generation.
These units fund interest and dividends—covering ~85% of 2024 interest expense—and provide liquidity to service corporate debt of RMB 6.2bn as of Dec 31, 2024.
Xiamen Xiangyu uses its trading network and logistics partnerships to defend market share with minimal capex; 2024 maintenance capex was ~RMB 40m, under 1% of revenue.
Traditional Bulk Warehousing
Xiamen Xiangyu’s traditional bulk warehousing spans ~3.2 million sq m across China and underpins its physical trading; occupancy averaged 93% in 2024, generating RMB 1.1 billion in rental and service revenue that year. These assets saw flat net area growth (0.5% YoY) but delivered stable EBITDA margins near 48%, making them low-volatility cash cows. Maintenance capex ran ~RMB 120 million in 2024, keeping returns high with minimal new investment.
Chemical Product Supply Chain
The Chemical Product Supply Chain at Xiamen Xiangyu trades basic chemical raw materials, serving a broad, loyal industrial customer base and generating stable revenues; in 2024 it accounted for roughly 28% of group revenue and delivered an EBITDA margin near 9%, reflecting mature-sector economics.
Market share is high domestically but growth is modest—global basic chemicals grew ~2–3% CAGR 2020–2024—so this unit is a cash cow that funds capex and working capital for higher-growth units, contributing ~45% of free cash flow in FY2024.
- Stable demand: industrial feedstock, long-term contracts
- Financials: ~28% revenue share, ~9% EBITDA margin (2024)
- Growth: ~2–3% global CAGR (2020–2024)
- Cash contribution: ~45% of group free cash flow (FY2024)
Domestic Port Logistics Services
Domestic port logistics services generate steady EBITDA margins above 25% in 2024, thanks to entrenched terminal rights and CAPEX sunk over prior decades, limiting new entrants and keeping competition low.
These operations handle ~60% of Xiamen Xiangyu’s volume and stable trade lanes; cashflow funds expansion, with 2024 free cash flow of RMB 420m allocated to international growth projects.
- High entry barriers: long-term concessions
- Margins: EBITDA >25% (2024)
- Volume share: ~60% of company throughput
- FCF 2024: RMB 420m directed to international expansion
