Country Garden 2018 underlying net profit was in line with our expectation. Top line increased by 67.1% YoY to RMB379,079 mn in 2018 due to strong contracted sales growth, strict construction management control and timely delivery of units.

If we exclude after-tax fair value gains on IP and exchange losses, underlying net profit increased 31.4% YoY to RMB33,864 mn, which was also in line with our expectation. The Company recorded gross margin gain of 1.1 ppts YoY due to elevating ASP. Underlying net profit margin decreased 2.4 ppts YoY to 8.9%. Net gearing ratio decreased by 7.4 ppts YoY riding on slower expansion of inventories.

    FIXED INCOME WEEKLY China Property Bonds: Who Are the Higher Quality Issuers?

    iFAST Research Team iFAST Research Team iFAST Research Team iFAST Research Team iFAST Research Team FIXED INCOME WEEKLY China Property Bonds: Who are the Higher Quality Issuers? Differentiate Between Strong and Weak Developers The spike in yields across Chinese property developers is currently presenting attractive investment opportunities. To help investors differentiate between the stronger and weaker property developers, we highlight some of their financial ratios, giving us a gauge of who faces lower risks of default. High Liquidity The cash ratio measures the amount of cash or cash equivalents held by the company over its short- term liabilities. The higher the amount of liquid assets it holds, the greater the ability for the company to meet bond payments on time and avoid defaults. Healthy Liquidity The CFO-to-Debt ratio is a measure of how the liabilities are covered by the cash flow generated from a company’s operation. The higher the amount of operating cash flow generated from its core businesses, the lesser the reliance on the borrowing, and the greater the financial flexibility for the company to meet bond payments. Low Leverage With lower levels of net debt-to-equity ratio, tightened liquidity or access to credit should be less of a concern to these companies. Strong Solvency Interest coverage ratio is measured by operating income (or earnings before interest and tax) over interest expense. A stronger level of solvency means firms have greater ability to avoid bankruptcy and repay their debt obligations. Who are the Strong Property Developers? We calculate a composite score by combining the aforementioned ratios via a standardisation method to provide a quick measure of the developer’s overall credit quality relative to its peers.
