HK/China Equity Long-Short

Equity Bottom-Up

We do not think a slower reported industry excavator and wheel loader sales growth in Apr is a concern to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/lonking-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:3944:1" rel="noopener">Lonking Holdings (3339 HK)</a>. In fact, the slowdown to 2.5% and 9% YoY, respectively, compared with 85% and 67% YoY in 1Q21, is primarily driven by high base for comparison a year ago as pandemic restrained demand is released.Relative to Apr 2019, the Apr 2021 unit sales still grew by impressive levels of 63.9% and 44.7%, respectively, providing us comfort on the health of underlying demand. Meanwhile, it is encouraging to see the sustained strength in export despite the continued negative impacts of COVID-19 outside China. We still expect a promising year for Lonking in FY21, and its valuation metrics remain very undemanding.
