Facing the complex and severe external environment in the past year, MontageTechnology has always adhered to the corporate culture of "accelerating withfocus and innovation" and the corporation mission "to make data transfermore efficient and data computing more secure", and has been deeplyengaged in the two fields of interconnect chips and data-processing chips.With continuous product innovation, business expansion, and substantialgrowth in business performance, Montage Technology has evolved from achampion in a niche market to a world-leading data-processing andinterconnect IC design company.In the field of interconnect chips, our product selection is expanding andincreasingly competitive. On the one hand, we continue to consolidate ourposition as a global industry leader in our areas of expertise and take the leadin developing international standards for DDR5 memory interfaces, and wasthe first to release several new-generation products of DDR5 memory interfacechips. On the other hand, Montage Technology leads the way in cutting-edgetechnology of Compute Express Link? (CXL?) and released the world's first CXLMemory eXpander Controller (MXC) in May 2022. What makes us especiallyproud is that MXC was released at the most difficult time, when the epidemicwas raging in Shanghai and the project team was stationed at the Companyfor two months and overcame many challenges. The product was lateradopted by Samsung Electronics and SK hynix for the development of CXLmemory products. In addition, in the past year, we have also releasedengineering samples of DDR5 CKD and PCIe 5.0/CXL 2.0 Retimer, which isregarded as a significant milestone of the Company. The interconnect chipproduct line achieved a revenue of CNY 2,734 million in 2022, setting a newrecord.In the field of data-processing chips, we have made important progress in thelayout of two strategic products: Jintide? CPU and AI chip. At present, theCompany has released the 4th Gen Jintide? CPU. In 2022, the sales revenue ofthe related product line reached CNY 940 million, maintaining a steady growth.Our first-generation AI chip adopted the "near-memory computing"architecture, which is the most complex product developed so far. The R&Dteam grasped the opportunity, completed the tape-out and successfully lit itup.
Montage Technology's achievements rely on the joint efforts of all employees.In the past three years, the Company's headcount has grown steadily, nearlydoubling from 334 at the end of 2019 to 641 at the end of 2022. Meanwhile, weare pleased to see that the senior staff are gaining more experience, while thenew employees are also growing rapidly. In addition, many of the younggraduate employees have become key members of our team.With such an excellent workforce as the foundation, we will be able to achievean "acceleration" in business performance naturally as long as we identify theproper strategic course, insist on "focus", and embrace "innovation". Inaddition, the Company adheres to the development strategy of independentinnovation. In the past five years, the Company has developed rapidly andachieved substantial growth in business performance. The operating revenueand net profit have both reached a new record high. Among them, theoperating revenue increased from CNY 1.2 billion in 2017 to CNY 3.7 billion in2022. Especially in the last three years, the operating revenue of the Companywas respectively CNY 1.8 billion, CNY 2.6 billion and CNY 3.7 billion, showing astrong momentum of annual growth. In addition, the net profit of 2022 wasCNY 1.3 billion, 3.7 times that of 2017.The Company upholds the spirit of excellence in ingenuity, regards innovationas the driving force, and is committed to providing customers with high-performance and low-power chip solutions, in order to better suit thecustomers' demands and support the Company's extraordinary growth.Meanwhile, the Company is committed to the interests of the stakeholders, andtakes adherence to business ethics and compliance with laws and regulationsas the basic guidelines for business operations. The Company establishes acompliant and harmonious operating environment, and constantly strengthensbusiness risk management to ensure the healthy and sustainable developmentof the Company's business.Our employees are strategic resources to realize enterprise innovation anddevelopment. We give full play to Montage's strengths, establish a soundtalent management system, and adhere to the promotion of talentglobalization. The Company has built a three-dimensional training system formanagement and employees at all levels and strives to provide professional
training courses and career development opportunities to enhance thecompetitiveness of employees.In terms of the environment, the Company keeps up with the nationaldevelopment strategy and helps achieve thedual carbon goals. Based onthe concept of green development, we control emissions in the process ofoffice operation, reduce the impact on the environment, and promote greenand low-carbon sustainable development. As an IC design enterprise, theCompany reduces the energy consumption of the industry through R&Dinnovation, contributing to the goal of a "Green Earth". To achieve theCompany's coordinated and sustainable development with society andenvironment, we exercise our social responsibility by giving back to societyand organizing various voluntaryactivities, such as establishing acharitable foundation, engaging in awide range of charity services likeeducation, blood donation, andfighting against epidemics.Looking ahead to 2023, the digitaleconomy will boom. As an IC designenterprise that provides hardwaresupport for the digital economyinfrastructure, the Company will focuson the field of data-processing andinterconnect chips, and provide high-performance, high-security, andhigh-reliability products for the digitalinfrastructure through continuousR&D innovation. Montage Technologywill be dedicated to the contributionof the high-quality development ofthe global digital economy!
