Thematic (Sector/Industry)

The Hong Kong government announced a new ad valorem stamp duty, or AVD, late on Nov. 4. Effective Nov. 5, except for first-time homebuyers who are Hong Kong residents, homebuyers are subjected to a new AVD of 15%. Thus, Hong Kong residents who are not first-time homebuyers are subject to an AVD of 15%, replacing a previous AVD scale ranging from 1.5% to 8.5%. Nonresidents are subject to the new AVD of 15% in addition to an existing Buyer’s Stamp Duty, or BSD, of 15%. First-time homebuyers who are Hong Kong residents are subject to an AVD ranging from 0% to 4.25% based on the existing scale, unchanged from before.We believe <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/111" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:111:1">Sun Hung Kai Properties (16 HK)</a>, or SHKP, is going to be most affected, given its large exposure to residential properties as well as its status as a proxy for the sector. We believe <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/22650" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:22650:1">Cheung Kong Property Holding (1113 HK)</a>, or CKP, should be less affected, as it has aggressively sold down its residential inventories, while being very selective in land acquisitions in recent years. For both <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/376" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:376:1">Henderson Land Development (12 HK)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/3320" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:3320:1">Kerry Properties Ltd (683 HK)</a>, the impact on our fair value estimates is expected to be minor.Analyst: Phillip Zhong
