Cheers! Raise a Glass to China Resources Beer (0291.HK)
- A liquid proxy for China’s recovering consumption (with no technology regulation risk)
- A quality red chip company at a very reasonable valuation
- Growing sales and margins as its premiumisation strategy is executed
Pre-IPO Sichuan Baicha Baidao Industrial – High Profitability and Growth May Not Be Sustainable
- Baicha Baidao’s business model is similar to MIXUE, but MIXUE has more heavy-asset model with own supply chain, while Baicha Baidao is more of a “transfer station” for raw materials.
- Single store data of Baicha Baidao showed varying degrees of decline. It’s uncertain whether Baicha Baidao would maintain current market share/revenue growth/high gross margin in front of fierce homogeneous competition.
- When Baicha Baidao submitted prospectus last year, its valuation was already about RMB18 billion.We think its valuation would be lower than MIXUE, close to Guming and higher than Auntea Jenny.
