MOKINGRAN's prediction of gold price is incorrect. For an industry veteran, MOKINGRAN shouldn’t make such mistakes. The error in the judgment of important raw material trends is worth investors' vigilance.
We think that valuation of MOKINGRAN should be lower than that of Lao Feng Xiang (600612 CH)/Chow Tai Seng Jewellery (002867 CH)/Chow Tai Fook Jewellery (1929 HK) and industry average.

Zhou Liu Fu Jewellery Co., Ltd. / Equity Capital Markets

<ul>
<li>The franchise model of Zhou Liu Fu is the biggest performance contributor, which is also the main reason for the Company's rapid expansion and high gross profit margin.  </li>
<li>However, the CSRC questioned the rationality of franchise model and thus rejected its A-share IPO. We think the high revenue growth/profit margin may not be sustainable in the long term.</li>
<li>Pre-IPO post-investment valuation was approximately 7.407 billion yuan. Zhou Liu Fu has applied for H-Share full circulation, which may put pressure on stock price performance after the lockdown period expires.</li>

Pre-IPO Zhou Liu Fu Jewellery - The Potential Risks and Concerns Brought by the Business Model

<ul>
<li>MOKINGRAN’s revenue fluctuated in the past three years. Profit margin was much lower than that of peers/industry average, which may not necessarily have big improvement even with upward gold price.</li>
<li>MOKINGRAN once applied for IPO in A-share but failed. The concerns of SZSE included “unusual” gold trade-in business, large inventory balance and the risk of "false increase" in profits/revenues.</li>
<li>The gold boom should not mask the risks of MOKINGRAN. Even if MOKINGRAN successfully goes public, it still faces many challenges. Valuation of MOKINGRAN should be lower than peers. </li>

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

<ul>
<li>Throughout 2024 we've discussed the theme of more global indexes/Sectors breaking out to new highs, the latest being the UK's FTSE 100, South Korea's KOSPI, and Norway's Oslo OBX.</li>
<li>This is classic bull market behavior. The long list of breakouts discussed throughout 2024 include the MSCI EM, ACWI, MSCI EAFE (in local currency), Israel, Germany, Sweden, France, and Ireland.</li>
<li>Another important thing to note is that none of these breakouts are failing; they all remain above their major breakout levels, a very bullish sign. We remain bullish.</li>
