近日,主营水环境治理的公司太和水(605081.SH)全资子公司上海微瑆科技有限公司与上海嘉唐信息科技有限公司签订了一份价值3.43亿元的《2024年高性能算力设备采购合同》。此举引发了上交所的关注,并要求公司解释其中的疑点。

太水和上海微瑆成立于2024年6月,实施此次算力合同的子公司成立仅三个月。上交所对太水和上海微瑆在相关领域的资质、人员安排、场地设施、技术储备等方面提出了疑问。同时,上交所还要求太水解释上海嘉唐的资金来源、支付能力以及与公司董事候选人李伟刚的关系。

太水近年来经营困难,市值仅为13.18亿元。尽管公司在半年报中表示将“审慎论证、积极探索外延式发展机遇”,但跨界算力仍然被认为是与主业无关的冒险举动。上交所在问询函中指出,太水是否为避免财务类退市风险而临时构造贸易类合同。

随着太和水市值的缩水,其在水环境治理行业的基本盘已经举步维艰。尽管公司曾尝试通过收购黑龙江海赫饮品有限公司进入大健康领域,但在饮用水市场竞争激烈的环境下,其未来前景仍存疑虑。

Recently, the wholly owned subsidiary of Taohe Water (605081.SH), Shanghai Weihe Technology Co., Ltd., signed a contract worth 3.43 billion RMB with Shanghai Jiantang Information Technology Co., Ltd. for high-performance computing equipment in 2024. This move has attracted attention from the Shanghai Stock Exchange and prompted inquiries into the doubts surrounding the transaction.

Taohe Water and Shanghai Weihe Technology were established only six months ago to implement this order. The Shanghai Stock Exchange has questioned Taohe Water and Shanghai Weihe Technology about their qualifications, personnel arrangements, facilities, and technical reserves in related fields. It also requires an explanation of the relationship between Shanghai Jiantang and company director candidate Li Weigang.

Taohe Water has been facing difficulties in recent years, with its market capitalization now at just 1.318 billion RMB. Although the company stated in its half-year report that it will “carefully consider and actively explore opportunities for outward expansion,” the cross-border bet on high-performance computing is considered irrelevant to the company’s main business. The Shanghai Stock Exchange pointed out in its inquiry letter that Taohe Water may have artificially constructed trade contracts to avoid financial listing risks.

With Taohe Water’s shrinking market capitalization, its basic water environment governance business has become increasingly challenging. Although the company attempted to enter the health food industry by acquiring Heilongjiang Haier Beverage Co., Ltd., the competitive environment for drinking water remains fierce, making it unclear how much share the company can gain.
