Huayou Cobalt has released an impressive mid-year performance report: from January to June 2025, the company expects to achieve net profits ranging from RMB 2.6 billion to RMB 2.8 billion, representing a year-on-year surge of 55.62% to 67.59%.

This counter-cyclical growth stems from Huayou’s persistent focus on industrial integration, technological innovation, and cost management. A standout contributor is the Huafei Project in Indonesia, where production capacity has exceeded expectations and achieved technological breakthroughs.

“Since reaching full capacity last year, the Huafei Project has continuously exceeded production targets, with output capacity steadily rising,” said the project leader. As a critical link in Huayou’s “nickel resources-nickel smelting-ternary materials” industrial chain, the stable operation of both the Huafei and Huayue projects has significantly boosted Huayou’s self-sufficiency in MHP raw materials, effectively mitigating risks from raw material price fluctuations.Back at the Tongxiang headquarters, R&D teams are testing the cycle performance of next-generation high-nickel ternary materials. “Our NCM811 product, enhanced through doping modification, achieves a cycle life of over 3,000 cycles and an energy density of 280Wh/kg, 15% higher than industry averages,” explained the R&D Director. This technological edge has positioned Huayou to seize market opportunities as demand for EV power batteries rebounds.

这份“内外兼修”的实力，源于企业在研发上的持续深耕。目前，华友拥有国家级企业技术中心、浙江省重点企业研究院等24个省级以上高能级科研平台，累计授权专利超600项，主导/参与制定国家、行业标准200余项。2024年，华友研发费用达13亿元，构建了核心技术护城河。

Industrial layout optimization has further fueled growth. In Indonesia, the Phase II of the 50,000-ton high-nickel ternary precursor materials project achieved mechanical completion in just 284 days, employing internationally advanced NCM811 high-nickel precursor preparation technology. This milestone underscores Huayou’s strengthened “overseas resources, global manufacturing, international markets” framework.

From resource self-sufficiency and manufacturing breakthroughs to standard-setting authority, Huayou Cobalt is leveraging its full-industry-chain integration and innovation capabilities to amplify synergies across the upstream and downstream sectors, driving sustainable growth for the entire industry.
