Equity Bottom-Up

Shenzhen International / Equity Bottom-Up

We consider the plan by <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shenzhen-international-holdings-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:9:1" rel="noopener">Shenzhen International (152 HK)</a> to dispose of its 35.7% direct stake in the Meilin Checkpoint Project a strategic move to move forward its earnings and cash flow from the development. Under normal course, it will have to wait for another 2-3 years to realise such gains and cash. In our view, investors should welcome this decision as the move will also cover an earnings gap in FY21 originally left over from FY20 due to a lack of exceptional gain in this year.With a potential capital gain of Rmb2.9bn (HK$3.5bn), SZI is likely to record a historical high net profit for FY21. Moreover, its track record of sharing exceptional gain with investors through special dividends may mean a dividend yield of 12% for FY21 based on the current share price. The enriched financial position will also provide SZI more resources for pursuing logistics expansion, and it has just announced a logistics acquisition in Pingshan, Shenzhen.

Shenzhen Intl (152 HK): Cashing in Future Earnings

We came back with a positive view on <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shenzhen-international-holdings-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:9:1" rel="noopener">Shenzhen International (152 HK)</a> after a brief catch-up discussion with the company. For 2H21, we see upside potential in earnings and our takeaways are also encouraging. We see possibility for higher earnings contribution from the Meilin Checkpoint project and logistics business on asset divestment. At just 6x PER, 0.6x P/B (-2 SD below average) and 8.6% dividend yield for FY21, SZI's valuations are attractive relative to the fundamentals.Strategically, the new CEO will foster closer working relations with its parent and affiliates, it is a beneficiary of the Qianhai expansion (as it still has 40% land yet to be developed) and it sees possibility of participation in the booming air cargo terminal business of Air China. We believe the recent share price weakness is a good opportunity for this interesting name in the Greater Bay Area.

Quantitative Analysis

The property sector in China has been in the spotlight over the last few years. Regulators have made various attempts to temper price growth but the silver bullet has been elusive so far.The powers that be realise that the lack of affordable housing is one of the reasons for China's birth rate dropping and there is now a renewed effort to ensure that property prices do not continue to run up. As part of the measures that started with the 'Three Red Lines' almost a year ago, Bloomberg reports that China has halted PE funds from raising money to invest in residential property developments.We take a look at some of the regulatory changes that have been implemented over the last year and see how the companies in the sector are faring. We then look for stocks with similar characteristics but different stock returns over the last year to find trade opportunities.

Instead of the 20% YoY decline in headline FY20 profit, we think the market's focus should be on the sharp HoH turnaround in its bottomline (excluding one-off items).In the post-FY20 result call, management believes that SZ Int has significant potential to be released in the future. Besides the recovery of logistics, toll road and airlines operations, it will benefit from the expansion in logistics network, securitisation of logistics facilities, contribution from Qianhai project and in the longer term, the transformation and upgrade of South China Logistics Park. We remain positive on SZ Int and believe the stock's current multiples are far from being able to fully reflect its value.
