Chinese Property Weekly - 25 March 2022 - Lucror Analytics

Road King's FY 2021 results were mixed in our view. The company's gross margin continued to contract, albeit this was in line with industry trends. The increase in net debt persisted, as Road King continued to make sizeable land purchases. While the company's cash dividends from toll-road JVs have recovered from the low base in FY 2020, we note the amount remains below those for FY 2018 and FY 2019. The FY 2021 dividends were sufficient to cover 24% of interest expense (FY 2020: 18%). Liquidity appears adequate, and we expect Road King to be able to repay its CNY 869 mn of domestic bonds due in September. Positively, we believe the company does not have to redeem its perpetuals at their respective first call dates. Additionally, Road King has not faced any material allegations of hidden debt to date.
