Yonghui Superstores − accelerating store expansion

(601933.SS, RMB4.57, target price RMB5.80, Buy)

1H16 net profit rose 27% yoy to RMB668m on an 18% increase in revenue, as reported in its preliminary 1H16 results

on 16 July. The audited results are set to be reported on 26 August. Revenue is 48% of our full-year forecast, in line with

its interim revenue mix of 47-48% in 2013-14. Net profit is 58% of our full-year FY16 forecast, vs. 53-54% in 2013-14.

We expect its EBIT margin to improve by 0.5ppts yoy in 2Q16, vs. a 0.3ppts yoy improvement in 1Q16. The company

attributed the NP growth to 1) GP margin improvement and an opex ratio decline in 2Q16, 2) some regions (Jiangsu,

Shaanxi, and Shanxi) turning profitable from previous net losses, and 3) Sichuan’s NP increasing significantly.

SSSg is expected to grow at 2% yoy in 2Q16, vs. mid-single-digit SSSg in 1Q16, mainly attributable to an ASP increase.

The company streamlined its apparel business supply chain in 2H15. We believe the sales performance of its stores in

new regions (Jiangsu, Shaanxi and Shanxi) has improved.

To develop store network in two business clusters. We expect Yonghui to add 60-80 stores each year during 2016-18E,

in line with management’s guidance at the beginning of this year. We believe it will focus on developing the Eastern and

Western China regions. It has formed two business clusters. The first should mainly open red label stores, covering

Fujian, Western China, and Northeastern China, where they will penetrate lower-tier cities. The second business cluster

will mainly develop the green label (Bravo) stores in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Eastern China and Guangdong, where they

will focus on the high-tier cities. We believe the cluster restructuring helps the company to 1) invest more resources to

develop the Bravo stores, 2) decentralize management to the divisional level, and 3) effectively motivate mid-level

management and store managers.

Apparel supply chain streamlined. The group fine-tuned the supply chain of its apparel business in 2H15 by adding new

suppliers and clearing inventory. We expect apparel revenue to increase by 15% yoy in 1H16 to RMB1.3bn, after a 6%

decline in 2H15.

JD placement to be completed in 1-2 months. We expect the JD placement to be completed in 1-2 months, as the CSRC

approved the proposal in July. It is currently working on JD Daojia and expects to have more O2O initiatives after the

placement.

Reiterating Buy on accelerating store expansion. We have a Buy rating on the stock, as 1) we believe Yonghui should be

a long-term beneficiary of China’s secular trends in modern trade retailing, and 2) it has industry-leading expertise in

fresh food operations, driven by its strong sourcing capability, well-established supply chain management and optimized

business procedures. We estimate 41% net profit growth for FY16-18E, on 20% revenue growth, driven mainly by 60-80

new store additions each year, 2-3% SSSg and operating leverage. Key downside risks: keen competition, low CPI and

challenges in nationwide expansion.

Sun Art – more O2O and online alliances

(6808.HK, HK$5.28, target price HK$5.63, Buy)

Sun Art is scheduled to release its interim results on 10 August. We expect net profit to decline by 5% yoy to RMB1.4bn

on a 5% increase in revenue. This is an improvement from a mid-teen decline in 2015. For 2Q, we forecast a net profit

decline of 7% yoy on a 4% increase in sales revenue with flattish SSSg (SSSg was +1.1% in 1Q16).

O2O development. Sun Art reached a strategic alliance with Shihui (实惠) in July, aiming to complete the last mile

delivery services by leveraging the third-party O2O player. Shihui has a mobile app, covers 40 major cities with 200+

service stations (GFA of 100 sqm for each station), and offers merchandise home delivery, home care service,

healthcare service and housing services to community residents. We expect the alliance with O2O players to relieve Sun

Art from investment in online traffic and logistics.

Allied with Gome to share the traffic. Sun Art has allied with Gome to add a flagship store to Gome’s online platform;

meanwhile, Feiniu will add a supermarket channel to Gome Online. The two parties will share a user database,

promotional events, supply chain management and supplier resources. We believe this could create synergies for both

companies, as it could 1) increase traffic as they have different user bases, 2) enrich SKUs, backed by their expertise in

their different product categories, and 3) share supply chain resources, especially logistics resources.

Valuation and risks. Our primary valuation methodology is a DCF, employing a WACC of 9.5% and a terminal growth

rate of 2.0%, which is in line with our 1-2.5% TGR sector assumption for the other Chinese consumer companies we

cover. We use the Deutsche Bank China COE of 9.5%, as Sun Art’s business is in China. We use a beta of 1.0, which is

also in line with the range we use for consumer stocks listed in Hong Kong. Downside risks: 1) slower-than-expected

expansion plans; 2) improvement in GPM failing to offset an opex increase; and 3) competition from e-commerce and

offline peers.

Haier Electronics – NP cut by 2-4% on continued downsizing of third party brand distribution business

(1169.HK, HK$13.20, target price HK$12.40, Hold)

We expect Haier Electronics to report its interim results at the end of August. We lower our FY16-18E NP forecasts by

2-4% on slower-than-expected growth in the washing machine business (1Q16: +2% yoy) and the continued downsizing

of the third party brand distribution business.

We expect Haier to report a 4% increase in NP to RMB1.1m in 1H16, mainly attributable to an improvement in GP

margin on more sales mix from logistics and low raw material prices. We expect top line to decline by 3%, mainly due

to the downsizing of the third party brand distribution business (DBe new: -30% yoy vs. DBe old:-20%) and the AC

output constraint in 1H16. We expect Haier to gradually exit the third party distribution business as some third party

brands have shifted to an online platform.

Washing machine is likely to grow in low single digits (DBe: +2% yoy) in 1H16, while water heater is likely to grow at

high single digits given a less competitive environment. According to China Market Monitor (Figure 17), Haier’s washing

machine market share expanded 0.7 ppts yoy in 1H16 in terms of sales volume, mainly due to the expansion of SKUs in

mid-end products (RMB2-4.5k). Its market share gained 0.6 ppts yoy in 1H16 in terms of sales value, mainly due to a

market share gain in the high-end segment (RMB4.5k+; Figure 18). This is attributable to its high-end products (Casarte

brand) being well received by the market. We expect Haier to continue to increase the mid-end SKUs and the high-end

products.

Valuation and risks

We maintain our Hold recommendation as the company will continue to downsize the third party brand distribution

business, while the logistics M&A has now become more difficult to ink as the valuation is currently expensive. The

dividend payout ratio is likely to remain at an unattractive 10% for FY16-18E.

We lower our DCF-based target price (9.5% WACC, 1.0% beta, and 1.5% TGR) by 5% to HK$12.4, which implies 12/11x

FY16/17E PE. Our primary valuation methodology is DCF. As most of Haier Electronics’ business comes from China, we

use a China COE of 9.5% and beta of 1. The long-term growth rate is 1.5% (old: 2%), in line with our 1-2.5% TGR sector

assumption for the other Chinese consumer companies we cover. Up/downside risks: better-/slower-than-expected

logistics expansion.

Gome - store renovations hurt earnings

(0493.HK, HK$0.89, target price HK$0.82, Hold)

Recurring net profit declined by 75-85% yoy in 1H16, as reported in Gome’s profit warning on 31 July. According to the

company’s announcement, SSSg likely fell 9-10% yoy due to the renovation of some of the major stores (losing two to

three months of revenue), or down 5-6% excluding the renovations. 1H16 revenue rose 9-10% yoy; offline revenue

increased 4-5%, helped by the consolidation of Artway in 2Q16, while B2C online revenue increased by 60% yoy. Online

B2C growth (60% yoy) is below our full-year forecast of 85%, while SSS (a decline of 9-10%) is well below our full year

expectation of -3%.

We expect Gome to renovate 140/150/150 stores in 2016/17/18. These stores need to be closed for 2-3 months before

reopening, which impacts SSS and GP margins. Management believes the renovation effect will be properly reflected

within six months of the renovation. It saw the five stores renovated in 1Q record 18-20% yoy revenue growth in 2Q.

Revenue from small appliances and mobile phones doubled after the renovation, indicating successful attraction of

young customers. It believes the renovated stores have better profitability now than they did before the renovation.

Maintaining Hold as Gome is still in the investment period for store renovations. Our primary valuation methodology is

DCF, employing a COE of 9.5%, beta of 1.1 and a terminal growth rate of 1.5%. This produces a fair value estimate of

HK$0.82/share, implying 67/20x FY17/18E PE or 0.9x FY16E PB. Upside/downside risks relate to SSSg and competition.

Intime – core net profit to grow at 5% yoy in 1H16

(1833.HK, HK$6.06, target price HK$7.53, Buy)

We expect Intime to release its interim results in mid-August. We expect core net profit to increase by mid-single digits

at 5% yoy to RMB546m on flattish yoy growth in revenue. To recap, SSS saw a decline of 4.8% in 1Q16 but this

narrowed to a decline of 3.4% in 2Q16.

Alibaba has become its largest shareholder. Alibaba (BABA.N, Buy, US$82.48) converted all of its CBs at a price of

HK$7.13 into 535m conversion shares in Intime on 30 June 2016. After the conversion, Alibaba has become the largest

shareholder of Intime with a 28% stake, up from 10% before the conversion. We believe this to be a strategic

investment by Alibaba, which plans to develop the O2O business in the retail market. We expect Intime to accelerate

offline retail industry consolidation, and it is likely to be able to obtain more resources from Alibaba to develop the O2O

programs.

Asset securitization to fuel M&A plans. Intime has successfully launched its first store property securitization project

(Dahongmen). We believe this is a good start and it should have 10-12 projects in the pipeline to free up RMB5bn cash

inflow. We believe the asset securitization should help 1) optimize its capital structure, 2) free up cash flow to expand

swiftly in the market, and 3) leave the main business intact as it will lease back the store and continue with the retail

business.

Valuations and risks. Our primary valuation methodology is DCF. As most of Intime’s business comes from China, we

use a 9.5% China WACC (3.9% RFR, 5.6% ERP, 1.0 beta, debt-free structure). We use a long-term growth rate of 1.5%,

in line with our assumptions for China consumer stocks. Downside company risks include weak SSSg, slower store

expansion, rising staff costs, and M&A.

Additional Information

The information and opinions in this report were prepared by Deutsche Bank AG or one of its affiliates (collectively

"Deutsche Bank"). Though the information herein is believed to be reliable and has been obtained from public sources

believed to be reliable, Deutsche Bank makes no representation as to its accuracy or completeness.

If you use the services of Deutsche Bank in connection with a purchase or sale of a security that is discussed in this

report, or is included or discussed in another communication (oral or written) from a Deutsche Bank analyst, Deutsche

Bank may act as principal for its own account or as agent for another person.

Deutsche Bank may consider this report in deciding to trade as principal. It may also engage in transactions, for its own

account or with customers, in a manner inconsistent with the views taken in this research report. Others within

Deutsche Bank, including strategists, sales staff and other analysts, may take views that are inconsistent with those

taken in this research report. Deutsche Bank issues a variety of research products, including fundamental analysis,

equity-linked analysis, quantitative analysis and trade ideas. Recommendations contained in one type of communication

may differ from recommendations contained in others, whether as a result of differing time horizons, methodologies or

otherwise. Deutsche Bank and/or its affiliates may also be holding debt or equity securities of the issuers it writes on.

Analysts are paid in part based on the profitability of Deutsche Bank AG and its affiliates, which includes investment

banking revenues.

Opinions, estimates and projections constitute the current judgment of the author as of the date of this report. They do

not necessarily reflect the opinions of Deutsche Bank and are subject to change without notice. Deutsche Bank research

analysts sometimes have shorter-term trade ideas that are consistent or inconsistent with Deutsche Bank's existing

longer term ratings. These trade ideas for equities can be found at the SOLAR link at http://gm.db.com. A SOLAR idea

represents a high conviction belief by an analyst that a stock will outperform or underperform the market and/or sector

delineated over a time frame of no less than two weeks. In addition to SOLAR ideas, the analysts named in this report

may have from time to time discussed with our clients, including Deutsche Bank salespersons and traders, or may

discuss in this report or elsewhere, trading strategies or ideas that reference catalysts or events that may have a near-

term or medium-term impact on the market price of the securities discussed in this report, which impact may be

directionally counter to the analysts' current 12-month view of total return as described herein. Deutsche Bank has no

obligation to update, modify or amend this report or to otherwise notify a recipient thereof if any opinion, forecast or

estimate contained herein changes or subsequently becomes inaccurate. Coverage and the frequency of changes in

market conditions and in both general and company specific economic prospects makes it difficult to update research at

defined intervals. Updates are at the sole discretion of the coverage analyst concerned or of the Research Department

Management and as such the majority of reports are published at irregular intervals. This report is provided for

informational purposes only. It is not an offer or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell any financial instruments or to

participate in any particular trading strategy. Target prices are inherently imprecise and a product of the analyst’s

judgment. The financial instruments discussed in this report may not be suitable for all investors and investors must

make their own informed investment decisions. Prices and availability of financial instruments are subject to change

without notice and investment transactions can lead to losses as a result of price fluctuations and other factors. If a

financial instrument is denominated in a currency other than an investor's currency, a change in exchange rates may

adversely affect the investment. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Unless otherwise

indicated, prices are current as of the end of the previous trading session, and are sourced from local exchanges via

Reuters, Bloomberg and other vendors. Data is sourced from Deutsche Bank, subject companies, and in some cases,

other parties.

The Deutsche Bank Research Department is independent of other business areas divisions of the Bank. Details regarding

our organizational arrangements and information barriers we have to prevent and avoid conflicts of interest with respect

to our research is available on our website under Disclaimer found on the Legal tab.

Macroeconomic fluctuations often account for most of the risks associated with exposures to instruments that promise

to pay fixed or variable interest rates. For an investor who is long fixed rate instruments (thus receiving these cash

flows), increases in interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a

Page 17: China China distribution Retail / Wholesale Trade channelspg.jrj.com.cn/acc/Res/CN_RES/INDUS/2016/8/3/7c3b05... · 8/3/2016  · decline in SSS. By product, we expect sportswear and

loss. The longer the maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be the

loss. Upside surprises in inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adverse

macroeconomic shocks to receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation

(including changes in assets holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency

convertibility (which may constrain currency conversion, repatriation of profits and/or the liquidation of positions), and

settlement issues related to local clearing houses are also important risk factors to be considered. The sensitivity of fixed

income instruments to macroeconomic shocks may be mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to

FX depreciation, or to specified interest rates – these are common in emerging markets. It is important to note that the

index fixings may -- by construction -- lag or mis-measure the actual move in the underlying variables they are intended

to track. The choice of the proper fixing (or metric) is particularly important in swaps markets, where floating coupon

rates (i.e., coupons indexed to a typically short-dated interest rate reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. It is

also important to acknowledge that funding in a currency that differs from the currency in which coupons are

denominated carries FX risk. Naturally, options on swaps (swaptions) also bear the risks typical to options in addition to

the risks related to rates movements.

Derivative transactions involve numerous risks including, among others, market, counterparty default and illiquidity risk.

The appropriateness or otherwise of these products for use by investors is dependent on the investors' own

circumstances including their tax position, their regulatory environment and the nature of their other assets and

liabilities, and as such, investors should take expert legal and financial advice before entering into any transaction similar

to or inspired by the contents of this publication. The risk of loss in futures trading and options, foreign or domestic, can

be substantial. As a result of the high degree of leverage obtainable in futures and options trading, losses may be

incurred that are greater than the amount of funds initially deposited. Trading in options involves risk and is not suitable

for all investors. Prior to buying or selling an option investors must review the "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized

Options”, at http://www.optionsclearing.com/about/publications/character-risks.jsp. If you are unable to access the

website please contact your Deutsche Bank representative for a copy of this important document.

Participants in foreign exchange transactions may incur risks arising from several factors, including the following: ( i)

exchange rates can be volatile and are subject to large fluctuations; ( ii) the value of currencies may be affected by

numerous market factors, including world and national economic, political and regulatory events, events in equity and

debt markets and changes in interest rates; and (iii) currencies may be subject to devaluation or government imposed

exchange controls which could affect the value of the currency. Investors in securities such as ADRs, whose values are

affected by the currency of an underlying security, effectively assume currency risk.

Unless governing law provides otherwise, all transactions should be executed through the Deutsche Bank entity in the

investor's home jurisdiction.
