Apparently, China Communications Construction (1800 HK) has an uninspiring 3Q22, but this is mainly due to losses at concession projects and heavy credit and asset impairments.
We estimate outstanding backlog at Rmb3.28trn, enough to cover 4.5x FY22F revenue. Expansion in 3Q22 gross margin, against declines in 1Q22 and 2Q22, is a positive development.
Despite outperformance against major indexes YTD, CCCC still trades on 2.3x and 2.1x PERs for FY22-23. Its 0.16x P/B has overly discounted the value of underlying assets.

<li>It is actively looking to recycle and realise the value of its assets and good progress are expected in 2H22. Such moves will narrow the currently deeply discounted 0.18x P/B. </li>

<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/china-communications-construction-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:265:1" rel="noopener">China Communications Construction (1800 HK)</a> sealed Rmb371bn of new contract in 2Q22, or a 35.2% YoY growth, representing a sharp acceleration from just 4.9% in 1Q22. </li>
<li>We estimate backlog is now around Rmb3.5trn and this equals to 5.2x FY21 revenue. This should have improved from 4.6x at end-FY21 and provides CCCC a secured pipeline.</li>
