First ever interim dividend declared, attracting more investors’ attention expected Price Chart Pou Sheng declared an interim dividend of HK$0.02 per share (24% payout ratio), it is the first ever interim dividend proposed by the company. Given its expected strengthened financial position (lower AR & inventory turnover days) and stable CAPEX which leads to improving free operating cash flow, we believe the 24% dividend payout ratio will be sustained, hence attracting more investors’ attention. Raise earnings estimates, Maintain Buy to ride on international brands’ expansion in China and improving operating efficiency Sources: Bloomberg, CIRL We raised PS’s FY16E/17E EPS by 8.2% and 2.9% respectively, led by GPM expansion through lower retail discount and new product sales. The rise in GPM will more than compensate the high SG&A ratio during this period (29-30% of sales). We believe the higher SG&A ratio reflects international brands’ confidence in China sports market, which would facilitate future growth in the long run. With EPS expected to grow at 50.0% CAGR in FY15-17E, its FY17E 11.8x P/E (~18.6% discount to international peers) still looks undemanding. We maintain Pou Sheng’s rating at BUY and raise PS’s TP from HK$2.50 to HK$3.10 based on 14.5x forward PE (par to international peers’ average) and FY17E EPS.
