We think the underperformance of China Power International (2380 HK) (CPI) against the market in this year is unjustified given a projected improvement in profitability.
CPI has secured coal supply with more than 60% of contracts on annual long-term basis within the benchmark price range. Also, power tariff is expected to be on an uptrend.
The proposed new management incentive scheme will better align management's and shareholders' interests. CPI also indicated good room to lower leverage in this year while sustaining growth.

But the positive news is that its wind and solar segments logged a 50.6% full-year profit growth.</li>
<li>There is good progress on transformation and it has 7GW of clean energy capacity to come on stream in FY22. This is equivalent to 46% of the existing capacity.</li>
<li>CPI said coal-fired plants are marginally profitable in Jan-Feb; meanwhile, hydropower will do better in this year. Overall, these set the stage for a turnaround.</li>
