  • Issuance Overpricing of China's Corporate Debt Securities
    Internet Appendix for “Issuance Overpricing of China’s Corporate Debt Securities” Yi Ding Wei Xiong Jinfan Zhang In this Internet Appendix, we report the following figures, tables, and additional analyses omitted from the main paper. Fig. A1 depicts debt security issuance across the interbank market and the exchange market from 2009 to 2019. In Table A1, we list the 68 licensed underwriters in the interbank market at the end of 2019. Information on underwriters is obtained from NAFMII. In Table A2, we summarize overpricing for CP and MTNs separately for both before and after the rebate ban period. Although the magnitude declined after the ban for both CP and MTNs, overpricing remains statistically significantly. Taken together, we find significant overpricing in all these issuance categories. In Table A3, we report summary statistics of issuance overpricing by using excess returns of the first secondary-market trading day as the overpricing measure. The table shows that the overpricing is robust across time, debt securities, and issuers with different characteristics, consistent with Table 3 in the main paper. In Tables A4 and A5, we conduct difference-in-difference analyses to examine how the underwriter rebate ban affects the excess return across different issuers and across different underwriters. Consistent with results in Tables 5 and 6 of the main paper from using the yield-spread measure, these tables show that after the ban, the drop in overpricing is significantly greater for securities issued by central SOEs than for those issued by other firms, and the drop in overpricing is significantly smaller for issuances underwritten by the Big Four banks.

We anticipate the company to deliver RMB361m net profit in 2Q17, helped by an easy base (RMB76m net profit in 2Q16), Beverage sales momentum revenue reacceleration to 8% (driven by bottled water), and margin expansion (led by Beverage segment profitability expense savings). This implies that Tingyi is likely to produce a 76% YoY net profit growth Instant noodle EBIT margin trend on 6% revenue growth in 1H17. We lift our target P/E on Tingyi to 23.4x (-0.5 SD below its High-margin new product launch LT-average P/E of 26.0x, vs formerly -1SD below), as Tingyi’s value-for-money products have gradually picked up sales momentum.
