Market Commentary

All four major down raw material categories fell this period. Grey duck down 90% was quoted at 530.78 yuan/kg, down 6.89 yuan; white duck down 90% at 559.44 yuan/kg, down 8.04 yuan; grey goose down 90% at 905.61 yuan/kg, down 11.65 yuan; white goose down 90% at 972.76 yuan/kg, down 11.69 yuan. Goose down declines were notably larger than duck down; white goose down and grey goose down fell by similar margins, while white duck down fell slightly more than grey duck down. The upstream raw material side is weakening overall, possibly reflecting the down jacket production off-season and a temporary contraction in filling material procurement demand. For the downstream second-hand clothing recycling and sorting segment, the raw material valuation of down-containing used clothing is under corresponding pressure.
