Long-Short Analysis on Japan, Asia and the World

LightStream Research

LightStream conducts quantitatively rigorous and data-driven analysis with a focus on Japan and Asia.

We consistently cover the Tech, Consumer and Industrial sectors, and provide ECM and Events coverage more broadly.

We supplement traditional qualitative insights from company relationships with a robust quantitative foundation that examines as much historical data as is available.
We further refine the accuracy of our insights and calls through the use of alternative data to flesh out current trends, and through a valuation framework that emphasises non-superficial peer group selection and a proper attempt to understand the metrics and changes that have driven security valuations in the past.

Alibaba Group (9988 HK)’s 4QFY22 results were yet another disappointment with the company’s revenue growing by 8.9% YoY, a new low after slowing to 9.7% YoY in the previous quarter.
This was mostly priced-in, considering that 4QFY22 revenue and OP exceeded consensus by 2.3% and 216% respectively.
However, FY23 and FY24 estimates are still ambitious and there’s a lot of downside risk to consensus from 2QFY22 onwards.
