Sino-Ocean's FY 2018 results were below our expectations. The decline in revenue appears contradictory to the prior year's strong contracted sales, though the company did say it experienced construction delays in 2018. Margins weakened, with ASP soft as land and construction costs increased. We see little room for a recovery in margins, as the contracted ASP has remained soft so far this year. Contracted sales are still robust, albeit this includes sales from JVs and associates. It is difficult to predict Sino-Ocean's revenue recognition and cash collection, as revenue and cash are reflected on an attributable basis, while contracted sales are not. Sino-Ocean has been active in debt financing, issuing onshore and offshore bonds. Its aggregate borrowings surged in FY 2018 in support of its expansion, especially in higher-tier cities. The company’s leverage spiked, with the credit profile weakening.
