<li>After analyzing J&amp;T's Chinese and SE Asian operations in previous insights, in this note we turn to the company's 'Others' segment, made up of New Markets and X-Border logistics</li>
<li>Compared to China and SE Asia, J&amp;T's New Markets and X-Border logistics business lines are small (just 11% of 2022 Revenue) but could offer attractive growth in the medium-term</li>
<li>We conclude this insight with a preliminary sum-of-parts valuation of J&amp;T as a whole. Based on available information, our initial estimate of J&amp;T's EV is US$8.6 bn (pre-IPO)</li>
