Given saleable resources of Rmb800bn in 2H19, Key changes in this note management said the company should be able to achieve its sales target. We Cutting EPS by 33-34% over FY19-21F understand that it recently offered some price cuts to promote sales, which should help improve asset turn and enhance its relatively low cash collection ratio of ~70% in 1H19. Price Close Relative to HSI (RHS) Landbank is sufficient for 3-5 years development Evergrande spent Rmb76bn to replenish 44m sqm of land in 1H19 and increased its land 26.0 93.6 bank to 319m sqm - saleable value of about Rmb3tr and should be sufficient for 3-5 21.0 79.3 years.

Major shareholders % held New energy vehicle (NEV) segment Ka Yan Hui 77.8 Evergrande has invested about Rmb20bn in NEV since 2017 and management said that key capex has been spent, and the remainder will be around Rmb5bn per year. Insert Meanwhile, the investment in the NEV can help it to obtain land for property development, which could subsidise most of its capex for the NEV segment. Cutting EPS and TP, but maintain Add on cheap valuation We cut its EPS by around 30% p.a. over FY19-21F due to the weak results and management’s new guidance. Meanwhile, we also cut our SOP-based target price by 26% to HK$28.0 from HK$38.1. However, we keep our Add rating due to its cheap valuations of 6x FY19 P/E and 9% dividend yield. Key catalyst: stronger-than-expected Analyst(s) contracted sales. Key risks include an unsuccessful A-share restructuring.

However, the nearer term may see less headroom for highly leveraged developers to finance in the capital Xiaoliang Liu, CFA market, pushing them to sell off inventory to ease liquidity pressure. Beijing +86-10-6516-6040 The People’s Bank of China said in September that measures aimed at monitoring the funding [email protected] and financial management of key real estate developers will steadily be expanded. Media reports suggest that the new regulations would see a cap of 15% on annual growth of interest-bearing Jin Wang debt for all property developers. Developers will be assessed against three indicators, which are Beijing called “red lines”: whether asset liability ratios (excluding advance) exceeded 70%; whether net +86-10-6516-6034 gearing ratio exceeded 100%; whether cash to short-term debt ratios went below 1.0. Developers [email protected] which breached all three red lines won’t be allowed to increase their debt. If only one or two of the red lines are breached, such developers would have their interest-bearing debt growth capped at 5% and 10% respectively. The first half of the year saw debt grow rapidly among developers. In a sample of 87 real estate developers that we are monitoring, more than 40% saw their interest-bearing debt grow at a faster rate than 15% year over year as of the end of June (see the chart below).

    Evergrande Real Estate Group Ltd SW 3 July 2014 Evergrande – House of cards Company Name: Evergrande Rating: SELL (-23%) Last close: HKD 3.08 Target Price: HKD 2.50 Real Estate Group Ltd Bbg Ticker: 3333 HK Evergrande is among China’s largest property developers – ranking first by saleable area as it has historically relied on volume and low prices to expand aggressively. We note that short-seller Citron Research alleged Evergrande of fraud in 2012, but the claims were vigorously refuted and Evergrande went to record over 40% bottomline growth in FY13. However, as the China residential property market starts to slow down alongside the Last close: HKD 3.08 economy, exacerbated by tight credit and home ownership restrictions, we think Target Price: HKD 2.50 (-23%) Evergrande, as the largest and most indebted, will be most at risk. Additionally, questionable management decisions raise more red flags than a Communist parade: Rating: Sell (1-year period) Stunning cash outflows on negative FCF guidance. An 18% HKD3bn dividend comprising 71% of earnings while guiding negative free cash flow for FY14; share repurchases totaling HKD3bn and purchase of a stake in Huaxia Bank for ~HKD1bn. Market Cap (USDm): 5,814 Veteran management selling shares and leaving the company. CEO Xie Haijun Avg 3M daily value traded sold 68m shares, his first sale since joining the Board in 2007; Li Gang, the vice- Chairman, resigned effective May 1 and sold 33m shares in April after a 8-year (USDm/day): 16.8 tenure; Lai Lixin resigned as Executive Director in February. In contrast, according to Evergrande’s annual reports, there were no management changes in 2010-2013 Shares outstanding (m): 14,630 during the previous property downcycle.
