高端PCB需求激增!上游覆铜板量价齐升,多家上市公司2025年业绩大增
Demand for high-end PCBs is surging! The volume and price of upstream copper-clad laminates increased, and the performance of many listed companies increased significantly in 2025
Surging demand for high-end PCBs drives rising volume and prices of upstream copper-clad laminates; many listed firms posted stellar earnings growth in 2025
Global Network Finance News. Many listed copper-clad laminate (CCL) enterprises unveiled their 2025 financial results, registering strong net profits belonging to parent companies. In 2025, Huazheng New Materials gained a net profit of 277 million yuan and turned losses into gains year-on-year. Shengyi Technology earned 3.334 billion yuan in net profit, surging 91.76% year-on-year. Jinanguoji estimated its year-on-year net profit growth to hit 655.53% to 871.40%. Rising sales and market prices of CCL as well as growing proportion of high value-added items are the core factors boosting corporate performance growth.
It is worth mentioning that in recent years, the accelerated penetration of AI servers and other applications has led to a surge in the demand for high-end PCBs, driving the volume and price of upstream substrate CCL to rise. The price increase of copper-clad laminates is mainly due to the rising cost of raw materials such as copper foil, resin and electronic cloth. In addition, the high-frequency demand of AI servers also drives the demand for high-speed plates to explode. In the eyes of the industry, the current price increase has enough supply and demand support. Within 3-5 years, with the gradual release of new production capacity, the price increase will tend to converge.
High-end CCLs are developed for high-speed and high-frequency scenarios, featuring low dielectric constant, ultra-low dielectric loss and excellent heat resistance. Made with low-loss resin and high-modulus fiberglass cloth, they are widely applied in fields with strict requirements for signal integrity and heat dissipation, such as AI servers, 5G/6G base stations, vehicle-mounted radars and satellite communications. To seize dividends from the industry boom, many listed companies have launched refinancing plans, with raised funds mainly invested in high-end CCL production projects.
Huazheng New Materials recently unveiled its private placement plan, planning to raise no more than 1.2 billion yuan to build a project with an annual output of 12 million high-end CCL pieces. Jinanguoji intends to raise up to 1.3 billion yuan via private placement for constructing a 40-million-square-meter high-end CCL production line and R&D centers. It focuses on developing high-frequency high-speed laminates, high-temperature resistant special CCLs, high-Tg CCLs and halogen-free lead-free FR-4 laminates, while arranging production capacity for general-purpose FR-4 CCLs.
