Others

• POSCO: POSCO is a leading global integrated steel producer operating captive coking facilities and consuming metallurgical coke for blast furnace steelmaking. Larger global incumbent with overlapping coke procurement needs and exposure to metallurgical coal markets, but competing rather than directly selling to Risun's customer base.
• Warrior Met Coal: Warrior Met Coal (HCC) is a major US metallurgical coal producer supplying coke feedstock to global steel industry. Not a direct competitor but a key upstream supplier peer in the metallurgical coal-to-coke value chain, relevant for benchmarking coal cost dynamics that drive Risun's input costs.

Direct peers

• Yankuang Energy: Yankuang Energy (600188.SH / 1171.HK) is a major Chinese coal-to-chemicals producer operating coal mining, coking, methanol, urea, and other coal-derived chemicals. Comparable integrated coal-chemical value chain and similar production scale, with overlapping exposure to coal feedstock and downstream chemical markets.
• SunCoke Energy: SunCoke Energy is the largest independent producer of metallurgical coke in the Americas, operating coke plants supplying integrated steel mills. Closest global direct peer to China Risun given the shared independent-coke-producer model serving steel mill customers, with comparable focus on coke oven technology and long-term supply contracts.
• Jinneng Investment: Jinneng Investment operates coal mining, coking, and coal chemical businesses in Shanxi province producing coke and downstream chemical products. Comparable Chinese peer in the independent coking segment with similar steel-mill customer base and integrated coal-coke-chemicals model.
• Kailuan Energy Chemical: Kailuan Energy Chemical (600997.SH) is a major Chinese coke and chemical producer with integrated coal mining, coking, and downstream chemicals including methanol and coke oven gas products. Operates similar integrated coal-coke-chemicals value chain and serves overlapping steel mill customers, making it a directly comparable peer.
• Shanxi Coking Co. Shanxi Coking (601015.SH) is one of China's largest coke producers based in Shanxi province, with integrated coking and coal chemical operations producing coke, methanol, benzene, and tar products. Direct Chinese peer to Risun's core coke and coal chemical business with overlapping product portfolio and customer base of domestic steel mills.

Broad incumbents

• HBIS Group: HBIS Group is one of China's largest steel producers, historically a major Risun customer and a competitor in integrated steelmaking that also operates captive coking capacity. Relevant as both a key buyer of Risun coke and an integrated competitor with self-supply, making it strategically significant for Risun's customer relationship dynamics.
• China Coal Energy: China Coal Energy (601898.SH / 1898.HK) is a major state-owned coal and coal-to-chemicals producer with significant coking operations and coal chemical capacity. Larger and more diversified than Risun with coal mining primary and coke/chemicals as part of broader portfolio, but overlapping in coal-to-chemicals and metallurgical coal value chain.

Emerging players

• Air Products and Chemicals: Air Products is a global industrial gases and hydrogen leader with major hydrogen production and liquification projects globally. Comparable to Risun's hydrogen energy business segment given focus on hydrogen production, liquification, and refueling infrastructure, though Air Products operates at far larger scale and broader geographic footprint.
