<li>Over the last decade, VIPShop proved it is the undisputed leader in China’s online discount retail business with the longest streak of profitability and impressive ROE among China internet names.</li>
<li>Investors are misplaced to look to the stock for growth. Rather, it is cash cow in mature business with deep moat and run by disciplined management who cares about shareholders.</li>
<li>Trading at 4.5x our FY23 earnings excluding net cash, it valuation is attractive even compared to depressed sector comps. Expect 20% CAGR of return by 2025 driven by intrinsic value.</li>
