This course is designed for students who are interested in working in and with businesses from China as well as future business leaders who wish to develop a general understanding of Chinese business practices. The course examines the many different types of business—private and public, Chinese and foreign—and the institutions that have and will define China’s economic trajectory and its role in the global economy. These include the state-owned firms that have been the foundation of modern China’s economy that dominating infrastructure and finance industries; the large, new private businesses that have emerged in many industries and are challenging the state sector; and the foreigners, whose ideas about “the China market” have both focused and clouded their vision.

  • Accelerated Scale Expansion to Further Stretch Balance Sheet
    September 20, 2016 COMMENT Sunac China Holdings (1918.HK) HK$5.87 Equity Research Accelerated scale expansion to further stretch balance sheet News On Sept 18, Sunac announced a potential transaction with Legend (3396.HK, Sept 19 close HK$20; Neutral; covered by Simon Cheung) to acquire 42 property projects in 16 cities with total unsold GFA of 7.3mn sqm for consideration of Rmb13.8bn, pending approval from shareholders of the companies. The consideration is comprised of Rmb3.6bn equity interest in companies that hold interests in the properties and assumption of Rm10.2bn of external debt, shareholders’ loan and accrued but unpaid interest. It will be paid in cash including Rmb5.5bn in 2016 and the rest in 2017 if the deal completes in early 2017 according to mgmt. Analysis As we highlighted in "Sunac China: Downgrade to Neutral on weak profitability and rising leverage" (Aug 31, 2016), we expect Sunac to continue its aggressive scale expansion at the expense of lower margins and higher leverage, and the proposed transaction comes at an even more accelerated pace than we anticipated. Based on the disclosed details, we note: 1) If completed, Sunac’s attributable landbank size will increase by 18% to GFA36.5mn sqm from 1H16 and geographic coverage will expand by 8 new cities to a total of 35 cities while the share of its attributable land bank in tier- 1/2/3 cities will change to 9%/67%/24% from 10%/75%/15% as of 1H16 (Ex. 1). 2) Stripping out one-off gains, the assets generated c.Rmb0.2bn net profit in 2015 (equivalent to 6% of Sunac's 2015 core profit) due to a deceleration in sales and margin slippage as per Simon Cheung.
