Asia HY Monthly - August 2022 - Lucror Analytics

CCRE’s results were poor, albeit in line with expectations as the company had issued a profit warning in August. The company was significantly impacted by several headwinds specific to Henan (e.g. the floods in H2/21 and COVID-19 lockdowns in H1/22), as well as the nationwide deterioration in homebuyer and investor sentiment. As a result, net debt and leverage worsened by more than expected. Going forward, we believe that CCRE’s debt repayment prospects remain highly uncertain, given the company's depleted liquidity and poor operating cash flows (due to the weak sales and very low margins). In addition, we believe the planned convertible bond issuance would help to enhance the company’s liquidity, but is insufficient to cover the large funding gap in FY 2023. Positively, Chairman Wu Po Sum has displayed a strong willingness to honour the company’s commitments. We highlight that the development of synergies with Henan Railway to achieve new business and financing opportunities may be critical for CCRE to continue staving off default.
