Pre-IPO Yunkang Group – Lack of New Growth Point

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Benefiting from the opportunities brought to the healthcare industry by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Yunkang Group (YK HK) took a ride and ushered in a turning point in performance.
  • As the pandemic stabilizes and gets gradually under control, the revenue generated from COVID-19 tests may significantly decrease, which means Yunkang may return to net loss again in the future.
  • We currently haven’t seen any new growth point with high certainty. Therefore, we are conservative about Yunkang’s outlook.

IDP Education Placement – Time for Round 2 (US$700m Worth) Of the Selldown

By Sumeet Singh

  • Education Australia, the largest shareholder of IDP Education, last raised around US$858m (A$1.1bn) via selling 15% of IDP Education in Aug 2021.
  • The lock-up from that deal is set to expire later this month, which will result in an additional 12.5% of the company’s shares, worth US$670m (A$927m) being unlocked. 
  • In this note we will talk about the recent results and the upcoming lockup expiry.

Pre-IPO ClouDr Group – The Logical Business Model Can Support Future Growth

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Based on our analysis, the logic of ClouDr Group’s business model is more solid and feasible than that of Ping An Good Doctor, indicating better outlook.
  • If compared with JD Health and Alibaba Health,besides the sales of pharmacy supplies and hospital supplies, ClouDr also provides hospital/pharmacy SaaS services, indicating wider business scope and broader development space.
  • In terms of valuation, Neusoft Xikang Holdings (NXH HK) is a good comparable company for ClouDr,but investors need to be aware of the market sentiment to new IPOs at that time.

In today’s briefing:

  • Life Insurance Corp of India IPO: Premium Market
  • Huitongda IPO – First Day Trading

Life Insurance Corp of India IPO: Premium Market

By Arun George

  • Life Insurance Corp of India (1248Z IN) is the largest life insurer in India. LIC is looking to raise about $8 billion. It opens for anchor investors on 11 March. 
  • LIC has leveraged its dominance to deliver healthy premium growth and high persistency ratio. However, the VNB margin and operational efficiency metrics are mid-tier compared to peers. 
  • On balance, the fundamentals look sound. The IPO is worth a look for investors willing to brave the volatile IPO market conditions. 

Huitongda IPO – First Day Trading

By Oshadhi Kumarasiri

  • Huitongda (9878 HK) had a subdued stock market debut with shares opening marginally above the IPO price.
  • Its subdued first-day performance suggests that investors are no longer misled by artificially low valuation multiples of “1P” EC players.
  • Based on EV/ (GMV + Retail Revenue), there’s a 38% downside to Huitongda’s valuation. However, it may be best to wait for signs of weakness before arranging a short position.
