The acquisition of Amer Sports in March 19 has further strengthened the company’s brand Apparel portfolio. Amer sells sports equipment, footwear and apparel 64% through its brands including Salomon, Atomic, Wilson, Arc’teryx, Suunto, Peak Performance and Precor. With a 57.95% stake in the JV, the Amer’s results are expected to be Sales Breakdown- Segments (1H19) included in Anta Sports’ as share of profits from JV. The JV recorded a loss of Rmb849m in 1H19 (Mar – Jun 19) on a revenue of almost Rmb4bn, partly due to one-off as well as All other FILA brand seasonality of Amer, which business is skewed more towards brands 44% 5% winter season.

As a result, the company has lowered its dividend payout to c.30% in 1H19 from 61% in 1H18. Excluding the acquisition, operating cash inflow remained strong at Rmb3.4bn+ in 1H19. Share Price Drivers: The company will be giving more update on Amer strategy in early December which should provide more clarity on its outlook and alleviate some of the market concerns. A successful integration of Amer sports could serve as potential ROE catalysts for the share price. Meanwhile, a stronger-than- expected 3Q sales performance could be another catalyst. Key Risks: Global economic uncertainties such as economic slowdown are key risks, while stiff competition in sports or the athleisure segment would be another major challenge. The execution risk on the Amer acquisition would also be closely watched out for by investors.

As precarious employment increases, vulnerable workers, including women and migrant workers, are hit the hardest. Workers in the sector are likely to become even more vulnerable as migration flows continue to grow rapidly.3 The apparel and footwear sector is increasingly reliant on migrant workers. As such, it is crucial that companies have the right policies and processes in place to address the dynamic nature of forced labor risks in their supply chains, including the risks to migrant workers. 1 Clean Clothes Campaign (2015), “General Factsheet Garment Industry February 2015.” Accessed 22 October 2018.
