CPMC Holdings (906 HK) is currently suspended from trading. We think the announcement is likely to involve China Baowu Steel acquiring all stakes from its largest shareholder COFCO.
There are benefits to be realised as Baowu also owns a packaging A-share Shanghai Baosteel Packaging-A (601968 CH). CPMC's 1H23 result is very solid with good margin expansion.  
Despite a 61.5% rally YTD, CPMC does not look expensive at 10.9x and 9.9x PERs for FY23 and FY24. These are levels at discounts to peers which are mostly A-shares.

We believe <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/cpmc-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:10427:1" rel="noopener">CPMC Holdings (906 HK)</a> is an attractive alternative consumption play given its exposure to the rise in demand for food, beverages and household chemical product packaging in China. It is among the top player in China's packaging manufacturing (1-piece cans, 2-piece cans, tinplate packaging and plastic containers) with prominent customer profile including Coca-Cola, Tsingtao, Carlsberg, Blue Moon, Feihe, Yili and Jiaduobao etc. The combination of margin expansion, capacity growth and surging consumption demand, we expect CPMC to post a steady rising ROE. We expect special DPS payout on the receipt of Rmb1.5bn repurchase consideration from JDB settlement, and this will place its dividend yield at least at 7.8%. Its 8.9x PER and 0.69x P/B represent deep discounts to its customers (40x PER) and packaging peers (23.4x) which are unjustified in our view.
