Initiation: the world’s only pure automotive glass player Brian Lam (852) 2532 4341  Leading market shares and the only pure supplier of automotive glass [email protected]  Benefiting from purchase tax cut, lower gas tariff and CNY depreciation Kelvin Lau (852) 2848 4467  Initiating with Buy (1) call and TP of HKD20, based on 13x 2016E PER [email protected]

Investment case: Fuyao has a leading 63% share of the China market for Share price performance nd automotive glass (72% of the OEM market), and the 2 -largest share globally (HKD) (%) (20%). It is the only supplier in the world to focus solely on glass for autos, 23 120 giving it strong bargaining power and better profitability than its peers. We 20 110 forecast net-profit growth of 25% YoY for 2016, due to the factors below. 18 100 15 90

13 80 China passenger vehicle sales demand being driven by purchase tax Mar-15 Jun-15 Sep-15 Dec-15 cut. The State Council announced a cut in the purchase tax, from 10% to Fuyao Glas (LHS) Relative to HSI (RHS) 5%, for cars with engines of 1.6L or less on 29 September 2015. We estimate that the policy has boosted the sales of 68% of all the models in 12-month range 13.56-22.50 China since then. As a result, we forecast 2016 sales volume growth of Market cap (USDbn) 5.46 12% YoY for China, vs. the consensus growth forecast of 6% YoY. 3m avg daily turnover (USDm) 3.54 Shares outstanding (m) 2,509

Major shareholder Mr. Cho Tak Wong (17.4%) Lower COGS on natural gas tariff cuts in China. In November 2015, the 3 NDRC announced a 28% (CNY0.7/m ) cut in natural gas prices. However, Financial summary (CNY) the extent of the cut was smaller than expected, given the 60% decline in Year to 31 Dec 16E 17E 18E crude oil since the peak in mid-2014. We expect the price of gas to be cut Revenue (m) 15,023 16,501 18,126 by a further 20% to CNY1.45/m3 in 2Q16, which is line with the published Operating profit (m) 4,163 4,784 5,289 Net profit (m) 3,244 3,729 4,119 view of Daiwa’s Dennis Ip. As energy costs account for about 50%/10% of Core EPS (fully-diluted) 1.293 1.486 1.642 the cost of sales for float/automotive-, we estimate a EPS change (%) 18.0 14.9 10.5 further 20% tariff cut would boost Fuyao’s 2016 net profit by CNY200m. Daiwa vs Cons. EPS (%) 7.5 10.5 7.5 PER (x) 10.9 9.5 8.6 Dividend yield (%) 5.5 6.3 7.0 Benefiting from CNY depreciation. Our economics team forecasts the CNY DPS 0.776 0.892 0.985 to depreciate by 13% against the USD to 7.5 by end-2016, which would PBR (x) 2.0 1.8 1.7 increase Fuyao’s price competitiveness overseas. We therefore look for its EV/EBITDA (x) 6.7 5.8 5.2 ROE (%) 19.0 20.0 20.1 overseas revenue to rise by 15% YoY, on capacity expansion and greater price Source: FactSet, Daiwa forecasts competitiveness. We estimate that for every 1% depreciation in the CNY, it would lead to an FX gain of CNY110m for Fuyao.

Catalysts: With the cost of energy accounting for 50%/10% of the cost of sales for and automotive glass, we believe a further 20% natural gas tariff cut in 2Q16 would act as a share-price catalyst.

Valuation: We initiate coverage of Fuyao with a Buy (1) rating and 12- month TP of HKD20, based on a 2016E PER of 13x, which is in line with the average of its global auto-parts peers (13.1x, Bloomberg). We forecast a payout ratio at 60%, suggesting a 6% dividend yield for 2016E at the current share price. Fuyao is one of only a few dual-listed companies (A and H shares) to have a very narrow valuation gap.

Risks: The main risks to our call include: 1) weaker-than-expected auto sales in China and internationally, and 2) unexpected regulatory and political risks as the company expands its business overseas.

Competitive landscape Fuyao is the only automotive-glass-focused supplier globally Fuyao is the only Fuyao has the largest market share in China, at 63%, in terms of automotive-glass automotive glass- revenue (or a 72% share of the OEM market), and the 2nd-largest player globally, with a focused supplier market share of 20% for 2013. However, it is the only leading glass manufacturer globally globally, which gives it to focus solely on automotive-glass production, while its glass supplier peers have varying scale economies in the degrees of exposure to solar glass, construction glass, etc. production process Fuyao has the broadest geographic coverage in China, with its 12 automotive-glass plants spread over 8 provinces. This network enables the company to deliver glass to the autos OEMs in a cost-effective and just-in-time manner. In addition, its high self-sufficiency in making float glass, (which is the primary raw material for automotive-glass production) ensures the company can provide a stable supply of automotive glass.

Korea, the Four Major Vehicle Series. Therefore, it has the broadest customer base among all its peers in China, including all of China’s top-10 passenger vehicle manufacturers, as well as the other well-known autos manufacturers such as BMW, Mercedes, Bentley, Rolls- Royce and Porsche.

Fuyao has obtained Compared with its peers, Fuyao has better profitability and is the only glass supplier to production certification focus solely on the automotive-glass segment. About 96% of Fuyao’s 2015 revenue was from Europe, the US, derived from automotive glass, while its float glass production is mainly for automotive Japan and Korea, giving grade glass, making the company self-sufficient. With the completion of its US and Russian it broad customer base production plants over the next 2 years, Fuyao stands to gain further market share overseas, in our opinion.

A snapshot of Fuyao’s peers Asahi Glass (5201 JP, JPY545, Hold [3]): the company’s glass segment accounted for the largest proportion of its 2014 revenue, at 49%, while the remainder came from its other business operations, including electronics, chemicals and brick-product . Within the glass segment, automotive glass accounted for about 45%. Asahi also manufactures solar glass and architectural glass. However, its glass segment is not that profitable, generating only a 2% EBIT margin for 2015. For both 2012-13, its glass segment was slightly loss-making.

Nippon Sheet (5202 JP, JPY71, Outperform [2]): Nippon Sheet is the most focused glass manufacturer next to Fuyao among the global peers, with its automotive glass contributing 50% of its 2014 revenue. It also produces construction glass and functional glass. However, in terms of profitability, its automotive-glass segment recorded only a 3% EBIT margin for 2014. Our Japan analyst, Yoshimasa Takashina, expects the company’s architectural glass operations to perform well in 2016, benefiting from strong demand and favourable pricing, more than offsetting a potential lacklustre performance of its automotive-glass and technical glass businesses.

Central Glass (4044 JP, Not rated): Central Glass is involved in manufacturing glass and chemicals. It is the 3rd-largest glass manufacturer in Japan after Asahi Glass and Nippon Sheet. Its glass segment has been making a slight loss for the past 3 years, with most of its profit coming from its chemical operations unit.

Saint Gobain (SGO FP, Not rated): Saint Gobain, a France-based producer, has diversified its products into construction and high-performance materials and packaging. In 2014, its flat glass business accounted for 13% of the company’s total revenue.

Xinyi Glass (868 HK, Not rated): About 33% of ’s revenue was generated from automotive glass in 2014. It also produces construction glass and solar glass. The company’s autos segment focuses on the after-sales replacement market, which has lower technology requirements than the OEM market on which Fuyao focuses.

Entry barriers The automotive-glass manufacturers must obtain various national safety and quality certifications for their autos products in those countries where they sell products. Fuyao is one of few suppliers to be accepted by the global OEMs and certified by the Four Major Vehicle Series, due to its advanced technology for automotive safety-glass production. The capital-intensive nature and sales network requirements of this segment also keep new players out of the market.

China autos demand boosted by purchase tax cut We forecast 12% YoY China PV sales growth for 2016 China’s State Council announced a cut in the purchase tax, from 10% to 5%, for cars with Fuyao stands to benefit engines of 1.6L or less on 29 September 2015. This policy came into effect on 1 October from the rising demand 2015 and will last until 31 December 2016. We estimate the policy will boost the sales of for autos in China on the 68% of all the models in China. As a result, we forecast 2016 sales volume growth in China back of the purchase tax of 12% YoY (versus the consensus forecast of about 6% YoY growth), after the 7% YoY cut rise for 2015.

Dominant 63% share of the China market Fuyao has a leading 63% share of China’s locally manufactured automotive-glass market, and a 72% share of China’s passenger vehicle glass OEM market. We believe the company will maintain its leading share of the China market given its stronger-than-peer bargaining power, on the back of its leadership market position and longstanding cooperation with the major autos OEMs in China.

Benefits from natural gas tariff cuts In November 2015, the NDRC announced a CNY0.7/m3 cut in the non-residential gas tariff to CNY1.82/m3, effective on 20 November 2015. Given the prevailing weakness in oil prices, we see room for the price of non-residential city-gate gas to be cut further to CNY1.45/m3 for 2Q16, representing a further 20% tariff cut. Energy costs (natural gas and heavy oil) account for about 45-50% of the cost of sales of Fuyao’s float-glass production, and 10% of the cost of sales for its automotive-glass production. As such, we estimate that a 20% cut in natural gas tariffs would lead to a 6-8% increase (or CNY200-250m) in Fuyao’s 2016E net profit.

Gaining overseas market share via capacity expansion Overseas revenue CAGR of 17% over 2015-18E Capacity expansion in We forecast Fuyao’s overseas revenue to rise at a CAGR of 17% over 2015-18, and its the US and Russia domestic revenue to increase at a 6% CAGR, driven mainly by the company’s overseas capacity expansion. We forecast the company’s overseas revenue contribution to expand to 40% of total revenue by 2018, from 33% for 2014.

Strong overseas revenue growth supported by overseas capacity expansion The company is planning aggressive overseas production capacity expansion. By the end of 2017, we estimate its overseas production plants (mainly in the US and Russia) would account for 15% and 22% of the company's total automotive-glass and float-glass production capacity, respectively. We expect the company to incur capex of CNY3bn for each of 2016-17 for the construction of the following capacity:

 450,000 tonnes of float-glass production capacity in Russia by the end of 2017: the new auto-grade float-glass production plant will be built near its Russian automotive-glass production facility. The company expects the plant to be completed by the end of 2017.  150,000 tonnes of float-glass capacity additions for each of 4Q15 and 3Q16: in August 2014, the company bought 2 float-glass production lines in Illinois, the US, for a consideration of USD56m. The plants’ auto-grade float-glass production is being upgraded, and commercial production of float glass started in part in 4Q15, with a second phase due to commence operations in 3Q16.  Automotive-glass production capacity of 12.1m sq m in Ohio, US, at the beginning of 2016  An additional 8.1m sq m of capacity in Kaluga, Russia, at the end of 2016

Benefiting from ongoing CNY depreciation The company would benefit from further CNY depreciation given its increasing overseas revenue mix. Our economics team forecasts the CNY to continue to depreciate against the USD, by 13% to 7.5 by the end of 2016, from 6.5% in 2015. We forecast the company’s overseas revenue to account for 35% of its total revenue for 2016E, up from 32% for 2013. We estimate a further 13% depreciation in the CNY:USD would boost Fuyao’s overseas revenue growth and its price competitiveness overseas. We estimate that for every 1% depreciation in the CNY, Fuyao would register an FX gain of CNY110m.

Financial forecasts We forecast 25% YoY net profit growth for 2016 Strong earnings growth for 2016E, helped by a likely lower natural gas cost, along with the purchase tax cut and overseas capacity expansion Higher overseas revenue Following the completion of the company’s automotive-glass production capacity of 12.1m mix following the start of sq m in Ohio, US, at the beginning of 2016, and an additional 8.1m sq m in capacity in production in the US and Kaluga, Russia, at the end of 2016, we forecast the company’s overseas revenue to Russia in 2016 account for 35% of its total revenue for 2016, increasing to 40% for 2018E.

We forecast Fuyao’s domestic revenue proportion to fall to 60% for 2018E, from 67% for 2014, once the US and Russia plants are operating fully. Despite the likely lower revenue proportion YoY from the China market for 2016, we forecast the company’s domestic automotive-glass demand to grow by 12% YoY for 2016E, on the back of the purchase tax cut (from 10% to 5% for cars with engines of 1.6L or less), which came into effect on 1 October 2015.

Domestic automotive- As a result, we forecast Fuyao’s overall revenue to see a CAGR of 10% for 2015-18E, glass market supported backed by market-share gains and the start of the new production capacity in the US and by the PV purchase tax Russia, and rising PV demand from China. With the expiration of some of its subsidiaries’ cut income tax benefits in 2016, we assume the company’s effective tax rate for 2016 will return to a normalised level of 17% for 2016, from 14% for 2015.

Accordingly, we forecast Fuyao’s net profit to rise by 25%, 15% and 10% YoY for 2015- 18E, respectively. On our forecasts, its net-profit CAGR of 16% outperforms its top-line CAGR of 11% for the same period, as a result of a 2pp rise in the gross margin, to 45% for 2016E from 42% for 2014, supported by likely lower natural gas costs.

Solid balance sheet and cash flow We look for Fuyao to be We forecast Fuyao’s capital expenditure to range from CNY3-3.1bn pa for 2016-18E, with net cash in 2016E, vs. its most of it likely to be earmarked for overseas capacity expansion. Some of the company’s net gearing of 46% in capex requirements will be funded by its H-share IPO proceeds (CNY6.7bnh in 2015) as 2014 well as cash flow generated from operating activities. Fuyao has moved into a net cash position in 2015, compared with its net gearing of 46% as of 2014. Also, we forecast its ROE to be 19% for 2016, down from 27% in 2014 due to the impact of deleveraging. And we assume a dividend payout ratio of 60%, representing a dividend per share of CNY0.78 for 2016E. At the current share price, the implied dividend yield for 2016E is 6%. In our view, Fuyao’s healthy balance sheet will enable it to expand its business and seize new overseas businesses opportunities as they present themselves.

Raw material and energy account for big proportion of cost of sales Float glass and PVB layers are the main raw materials used in automotive glass production. In 2014, float glass accounted for 33% of Fuyao’s production cost for automotive glass. Separately, PVB layers accounted for 13% of the company’s cost of sales for automotive glass, while other raw materials accounted for 18%. Excluding the energy consumed in the production of float glass, energy costs accounted for about 10% of Fuyao’s automotive glass cost of sales in 2014.

For the production of float glass, the company sourced internally about 76% of the float glass used in its automotive glass sold in 2014. Having converted 2 construction-grade float glass production lines in Tongliao, Inner Mongolia, into float glass production lines at end-2014, Fuyao should achieve a float glass self-sufficiency rate of more than 90% in 2015-17E (vs. around 80% currently), in our view, backed by the potential natural gas price cut in China (energy costs accounted for about 45% of the company’s cost of sales for float glass production in 2014). Hence, assuming a 20% natural gas price cut this year, we forecast Fuyao’s gross margins to widen by 4pp to 45% in 2016.

We are comfortable with our target multiple given the company’s leading position in the automotive glass business and potentially stronger-than-peers’ earnings CAGR, which we forecast at 16% for 2015-18E (premised on a potential cut in the price of natural gas in China, increased demand for cars following the purchase tax cut in China, and further market-share gains resulting from its overseas capacity expansion).

Risks to our call Weaker-than-expected automotive sales The automotive-glass manufacturing business is directly related to automotive sales and production, which are highly cyclical and depend on the health of the economy and strength of consumer spending. Slower-than-expected auto sales in the China (Fuyao’s largest market) and the US (increasing exposure) would therefore have a negative impact on the company’s financial performance. In the event of automotive demand weakening and OEMs lowering car prices, Fuyao’s ASP would likely come under pressure.

Execution risk overseas As the company expands its business internationally, where it has limited experience and brand equity, it may be exposed to risks associated with regulatory and political environments that differ from those of its domestic market.

No minimum purchase obligations The company generally signs contracts with automotive OEMs that feature quality requirements but not minimum purchase obligations. Hence, a decline in the production requirements of its major OEM customers could weigh on Fuyao’s business. In 2014, Fuyao’s top 5 customers collectively contributed 17% of its revenue and its largest customer contributed 6.4% of its revenue.

Competition risk Many leading international automotive-glass manufacturers have established manufacturing facilities in China, such as Asahi, NSG and Saint-Gobain. Growing competition, especially from companies in regions of the world where energy and other costs are lower than Fuyao’s, could result in lower selling prices and/or reduce demand for some of Fuyao’s products.

Energy price risk Natural gas accounts for a large proportion of Fuyao’s cost of sales. The natural gas price internationally is closely related to the crude oil price internationally. Hence, a rebound in the price of crude oil or natural gas could have a significant impact on the company’s profitability.

The PVB Glass layers prevent objects that strike the glass from penetrating the glass and prevent the glass from shattering into Automotive sharp pieces. Laminated glass is mainly used in automobile windshields. Glass Tempered Tempered glass is produced by heating float glass to softening point and rapidly cooling the surface uniformly with Glass air to increase its strength. Tempered glass breaks into small pieces without sharp edges when struck by an object, thereby reducing injury to passengers. Tempered glass is mainly used in side and rear windows of vehicles.
