Equity Bottom-Up

<p>With the ongoing COVID-19 cases in the US, its auto sector is unlikely to recover this year that is a drag to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/nexteer-automotive-group-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:15483:1" rel="noopener">Nexteer Automotive (1316 HK)</a> 's earnings but it has recently penetrated the Chinese auto market, supplying to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/geely-automobile-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:127:1" rel="noopener">Geely Auto (175 HK)</a> for Electric Power Steering component, that could help to increase the company's overall profitability. From a credit perspective, Nexteer's debt-to-equity ratio is also very low compared to the Japanese small-cap peers such as Futaba and KYB and even compared to its two largest customers, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/general-motors-co" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:18811:1" rel="noopener">General Motors Co (GM US)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/ford-motor-co" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:19225:1" rel="noopener">Ford Motor Co (F US)</a> at 202% and 390% debt to equity ratio respectively. </p>
<p>Nexteer is trading at a 30-37% discount to its peers and compared to the Chinese auto suppliers such as Minth, Fuyao and Huayu, Nexteer is also trading at a 55% discount in EV/EBITDA, 33% discount in PER, and 61% in PBR. </p>
<p>As the Chinese auto sector recovers earlier compared to the US, the company's earnings should start to recover and its profitability should also increase, therefore, its share price should increase correspondingly. BUY. </p>

<p>A recent online survey result from J.D. Power indicates that China's end demand on passenger vehicles would remain weak until June 2020, although the Coronavirus outbreak is under control in China at current moment.</p><p>However, the potential number of new car buyers has significantly increased, and half of people want to buy cars within one year. This indicates that China's auto demand might rebound dramatically in 2H2020.</p><p>Currently dealers inventory level is extremely high. To destock the dealers, OEMs' sales in the next few months would probably remain as weak as in Feb. If this causes any further share price correction, it's a buying opportunity. We suggest investors buy Geely(175.HK), Brilliance China (1114.HK), and Fuyao Glass (3606.HK) on pullbacks.
