[Tencent Music (TME US, SELL, TP US$6) Preview]: Competition Is Still a Concern, Maintain SELL

By Shawn Yang

  • We expect the 2Q23 online music revenue growth to be 34.4% YoY, driven by more promotions to drive up users’ retentions;
  • We anticipate the 2Q23 social entertainment growth rate to be (12.9%) YoY, due to intense competition and strengthened regulatory in live streaming. 
  • We expect TME’s 2Q23’s rev./non-GAAP net income to be (1.8%)/ (3.9%) vs cons. We maintain SELL because of continuous pressure from Bytedance’s Soda Music, Wechat Video Account and Kuaishou.

[Atour Lifestyle (ATAT US, BUY, TP US$35) Preview]: Retail and Summer Travelling Are Two Catalysts

By Shawn Yang

  • We expect Atour to report 2Q23 revenue and non-GAAP NI at 94% YoY and 259% YoY, which is 22% and 20% above BBG consensus respectively. 
  • We expect Atour’s RevPAR in 3Q23/2023 increase to 110%/114% of corresponding 2019 level from previous estimate at 105%/112%. 
  • We maintain the stock as BUY rating, and maintain TP at US$35 because the operational gains has been mitigated by FX loss in terms of valuation
