Ningbo Konit (Koningda)

Sintered NdFeB magnet production spanning alloy/blank casting through machining and surface treatment (electroplating/coating), i.e., midstream through finished-magnet assembly, organized as a vertically split cluster of affiliated Ningbo entities (Koningda Industrial for blanks, Koningda Xinfeng for machining, Koningda Rifeng for coating) under one wholly owned San Huan subsidiary group.

Narrative

Ningbo Konit — legally Ningbo Koningda Industrial Co., Ltd. and its affiliated Ningbo entities — is one of four wholly owned sintered NdFeB production sites of Beijing Zhong Ke San Huan High-Tech Co., Ltd. (San Huan), a Shenzhen-listed (SZ: 000970) rare-earth magnet producer founded in 1999 by Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher Wang Zhenxi, who is also listed as legal representative of the Ningbo entities. The Ningbo operation itself dates to May 2000. In 2020 San Huan raised up to CNY 720 million in a rights issue, of which roughly CNY 390 million was earmarked for a Ningbo capacity-expansion project spanning new alloy/blank capacity plus machining and coating lines, executed through two newly incorporated entities (Koningda Xinfeng and Koningda Hefeng, both March 2020). By fiscal year 2024, the top Ningbo entity (Koningda Industrial) reported standalone revenue of roughly CNY 1.96 billion and net profit of about CNY 105 million in San Huan's own related-party disclosures, indicating the Ningbo cluster is a substantial, operating contributor to San Huan's business rather than a small or dormant subsidiary. Separately, in February 2022 San Huan's board approved a capital injection of CNY 94.921 million into "Ningbo Konit Industries Inc."; the public disclosure of that transaction does not specify its purpose.

How this page is sourced

Everything here comes from public sources — company filings, annual reports, exchange announcements, government releases and trade press. Every figure is linked to the document it came from and carries the date that document was published, because a capacity number without a date is not a fact, it is a rumor with a decimal point.

What is deliberately absent: material nonpublic information. I have spent more than two decades in this industry and a good deal of what I know about these companies I learned under NDA. Those obligations do not expire and they do not bend for a website. Nothing I have been told in confidence appears here in any form, and nothing on this page — or missing from it — should be read as a signal about what I know privately. I hold NDAs absolutely. It is the reason clients tell me things.

Judgment is the other thing left out on purpose. This page reports what has been published and who published it. Whether a target is credible, whether a ramp will hold, whether a capacity figure survives contact with the plant behind it — that is the work I do for clients, and it does not belong in a free reference page.

Where public sources disagree, I say so rather than picking a winner. Where a figure has not been published, the field says so rather than carrying an estimate. An empty field is information too.

Public filings tell you what a company has said. Whether it holds up is a different question, and the one I get hired to answer.
