() The operating comments of the Board of Directors in 2023 are as follows:
I. The industry in which the company is located during the reporting period.
(a) the company’s industry
1. Support policies have been introduced one after another, and outdoor sports industry has ushered in new opportunities for development.
In recent years, the state has paid more and more attention to the overall development of outdoor sports industry, and successively and intensively introduced a number of supporting industrial policies. In July 2023, the State Sports General Administration issued the Work Plan on Restoring and Expanding Sports Consumption. The plan points out that restoring and expanding sports consumption should be given priority, and puts forward three main measures: increasing the supply of high-quality sports products and services, enriching sports consumption scenes and consolidating the foundation of sports consumption. The promulgation of the "Program" is of special significance for the recovery of outdoor sports consumption. In October 2023, the National Development and Reform Commission, the State Sports General Administration and other departments issued the Action Plan for Promoting the Construction and Service Improvement of Outdoor Sports Facilities (2023-2025). The plan proposes that by 2025, the supply and demand of outdoor sports facilities construction and service quality will be effectively connected, the participation groups will be more extensive, the competition activities will be more abundant, the professional talent team will continue to grow, and the safety supervision policy system will be more sound. A number of outdoor sports development highlands with good development foundation, complete service guarantee, strong local characteristics and excellent supporting industries have been formed nationwide, and the total scale of outdoor sports industry has been promoted to 3 trillion yuan.
2. Outdoor sports groups tend to be younger, with strong consumption power and great communication influence.
The trend of rejuvenation of outdoor sports industry is a remarkable market phenomenon, which mainly benefits from young people’s pursuit of a healthy lifestyle and their desire to explore new things. The White Paper on Trend of Outdoor Sports Industry of Taobao Tmall in Spring and Summer of 2024 shows that young people aged 18-29 account for nearly 40% of the outdoor sports market, and consumers of this age group have become the backbone of the market. In addition, the spending power of young people in outdoor sports is also constantly improving. The White Paper on Sports Development of Young People in China in 2022 shows that the average annual consumption of young people in China is 7,237.6 yuan, of which 18.1% spend more than 10,000 yuan. This increase in consumption level reflects young people’s attention to outdoor sports and their willingness to invest in it.
As the main consumer in outdoor sports market, young people not only occupy an advantage in quantity, but also show a trend of youthfulness in consumption behavior and choice. Their participation and consumption behavior have played an important role in promoting the development of outdoor sports industry.
3. The outdoor industry is experiencing explosive growth, and the market potential is huge to be tapped.
With the popularity and diversification of outdoor sports, out shoes clothing and other related products have also ushered in a huge market demand. More and more consumers begin to pay attention to the functionality, comfort and fashion of outdoor products, which also brings more development opportunities for the outdoor products market. According to Hongze’s research data, in 2023, China’s out shoes clothing market has reached about 45 billion yuan, with a compound growth rate of nearly 20% in the past three years.
On the one hand, the popularity of outdoor activities, such as camping, skiing, hiking and mountaineering, has promoted the penetration rate of outdoor activities, attracted more and more participants, and brought a steady stream of consumer demand for outdoor products industry. On the other hand, the phenomenon of "breaking the circle" of out shoes clothing has also contributed. Its application scene is no longer limited to professional outdoor activities, but expanded to urban business and leisure areas. This change not only expanded the audience of out shoes clothing, but also further tapped the market potential. Under the joint action of these two factors, the high prosperity of outdoor products industry has been continuously improved, and the market potential of outdoor products has been further enhanced.
4. The consumer market continues to recover and rebound, and the market vitality continues to emerge.
According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, the total retail sales of social consumer goods in 2023 was 47,149.5 billion yuan, an increase of 7.2% over the previous year, and the scale reached a record high. According to the retail format, in 2023, the retail sales of physical stores above designated size increased by 5.0% compared with the previous year, among which the retail sales of convenience stores, department stores, specialty store and brand stores increased by 7.5%, 8.8%, 4.9% and 4.5% respectively. In 2024, as the national economy continues to pick up and improve, relevant policies to promote consumption will continue to be effective, new consumption formats and new models will be gradually cultivated and expanded, the income of urban and rural residents will continue to grow, and the expansion of the consumer market will be consolidated and enhanced.
