Foo Leung Stable property management services growth with margin expansion Research Associate The company manages 138mn sqm as of end-2017 with an average (+852 ) 2203 6239 management fee of RMB3.11/sqm/month.

Key upside risk – higher margins due to effective cost control; key downside risk – weaker growth of its GFA under management and value-added services.

In addition to property management services, the company also provides a variety of value-added services to both property owners (i.e. residents of the projects for which the company provides property management services) and non-property owners (e.g. consultancy services to property developers and other property management companies).

Property management services: stable growth with improving margins

Property management services is the largest segment of the company, contributing ~70% of its total revenue and ~40% of its gross profits over the past few years. This business has experienced a 31% revenue CAGR since 2013, and we expect the growth to stabilize at ~27% in the coming years, with its contribution to account for >60% of revenue and >40% gross profits, considering the strong growth of the company’s value-added services and the improving gross margin of the property management services segment.

Property Greentown Service

We forecast GFA under management to expand from 138mn sqm to 287mn sqm by 2020F (28% CAGR), considering the company’s: 1) high contract renewal rate (>96% over the past few years); 2) high bidding win rate (>70% in the past few years) for obtaining third-party projects given its quality services; 3) large reserve pipeline (150mn sqm at end-2017); and 4) rich cash position for potential M&A. Also, we expect its gross margin will continue to improve given: 1) higher property management fees; and 2) cost saving from economies of scale and the introduction of cost control measures (e.g. automation of basic functionalities).

138mn sqm GFA under management with high customer satisfaction The GFA under management of Greentown Service has posted a 26% CAGR over the past four years to 138mn sqm (~80% are residential properties, spreading in >1,000 projects across China) at end-2017. The company is a top 10 property management services provider in China in terms of GFA under management, although this only represents a 0.7% market share due to the highly fragmented property management market in China.

Thanks to its quality services, Greentown Service has received the highest customer satisfaction rate (93% vs. 85% on average for top-100 players) over the past few years, according to China Index Academy. As a result, the company has been successful in bidding for third-party projects (>70% bidding win rate) to lower its reliance on Greentown China (accounts for 57% of GFA under management in 2017, vs. >75% before). Given its long history and well- known brand name, Greentown Service has a strong presence in the Yangtze River Delta (accounted for 69% of its total GFA under management in 2017), followed by Bohai Rim (15%) and Pearl River Delta (5%).

In terms of revenue model, lump sum basis (the prevailing revenue model in China) accounts for 97.6% of its portfolio, while commission basis accounts for the remaining 2.4%.

Large reserve pipeline ready for conversion enhances growth visibility To sustain the high growth of its GFA under management, Greentown Service also bids for new projects that are still under construction from Greentown China and third-party developers, as reserve GFA to be managed. At end-2017, the company’s reserve GFA had reached 150mn sqm (+26% yoy). This represents a net increase of 61mn sqm, which significantly outpaces the 31mn sqm converted to GFA under management last year, and hence, sustained the reserve GFA coverage ratio (i.e. reserve GFA / GFA under management) at 1.1x in 2017 (vs. 1.1x in 2016), despite a higher base.

 From Greentown China: The GFA sold (including project management) by Greentown China has achieved a 28% CAGR in the past three years, and reached 8.3mn sqm in 2017. Given Greentown China’s high-end product positioning, and as a sister company of Greentown Service, Greentown Service has been given priority to be the property management service provider of Greentown China’s development properties.

 From third-party developers: Leveraging on its quality services and brand name, Greentown Service has been successful in obtaining third-party projects (>70% bidding win rate over the past few years). Considering the property sales (including project management) of Greentown China will likely reach another historical high this year (+20% yoy in 5M18), and Greentown Service continues its aggressive expansion via bidding third- party projects, we expect the reserve GFA of the company to grow at 20-25% p.a. in the next few years to reach 277mn sqm by 2020F.

Given the usual construction time of a high-end development project is about two to three years, we believe this large reserve GFA will gradually be converted into GFA under management in the following years, which in turn enhances the growth visibility of its property management segment in the medium term.

Rich cash position for potential M&A Greentown Service raised HKD1.3bn from its IPO in July 2016, and management planned to spend about half of the proceeds on M&A and value- added services expansion. Indeed, the company has spent RMB240mn on equity investments (including joint ventures) in 2016 and 2017, representing 34% of its net profits.

As of end-2017, the cash balance of the company has reached RMB2.0bn, which we believe should provide abundant resources to support any potential large scale M&A in the highly-fragmented market in the next few years.

27% revenue CAGR with slight margin expansion Driven by the strong growth of GFA under management, we expect the revenue of property management services to post a 27% CAGR in the next three years to account for 61-67% of the company’s total revenue (vs. 69% in 2017).

Property Greentown Service

Due to the labour-intensive nature of the property management services industry, 99% of the in-house staff of Greentown Service are directly related to property management services. Given almost 100% of the company's projects are contracted on a lump sum basis, Greentown Service has raised its outsourcing % of its non-core services (e.g. cleaning, maintenance, greening and gardening, etc.), to lower the labour costs for margin protection. In 2015, outsourcing expenses accounted for 33.6% of the company’s COGS, up from 13.1% in 2013 and 18.9% in 2014. As a result, the in-house labour cost of the company has been significantly lowered to account for only 36% of its total operating costs in 2017 (vs. 67% in 2013), while the GFA managed per in- house staff has increased to 6.7k sqm (vs. 5.5k sqm in 2015).

Besides, to reduce its reliance on manual labour and improve efficiency, the company has planned to be more proactive on replacing basic functionalities with automated systems. Together with the stable property management fees, we expect the gross margin of this segment to continue to improve in the following years to 11%-12% (vs. 11.2% in 2017), despite the increasing wages.

Value-added services: strong growth but margin may continue to be under pressure in the medium term

In addition to property management services, Greentown Service also provides a variety of value-added services to both property owners (i.e. community living services) and non-property owners (i.e. consulting services).

Community living services Greentown Service provides five major categories of community value-added services to property owners and residents of its managed properties, namely:

Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong Page 13

9 July 2018

Property Greentown Service

1) community products and services; 2) home living services (e.g. housekeeping, greening, gardening, turnkey furnishing and other bespoke services); 3) community space services (e.g. advertisements, club house management, common area parking, etc.); 4) property asset management services (e.g. secondary property sales, house renting); and 5) cultural and education services (e.g. pre-school classes, education camps, interest classes).

The revenue of this segment has achieved a 66% CAGR over the past four years to reach RMB900mn in 2017, with 56% of the income from property asset management services, 21% from community products and services, 13% from community space services, 8% from home living services, and the remaining 2% from cultural and education services.

In terms of growth, property asset management services, community space services, and cultural and education services have shown the strongest growth (82-112% yoy), while home living services has only grown 10% yoy in 2017. We expect this trend to continue, and hence, drive the whole segment revenue to a 58% CAGR to RMB3.6bn in 2020F.

In terms of profitability, the gross margin of this segment has been significantly squeezed to 33.5% in 2017 (vs. >43% before), mainly driven by: 1) the service mix change (i.e. higher contribution from community products and services, which has a lower margin due to its business nature); and 2) the heavy early-stage investments for property asset management services, and cultural and education services (e.g. rental expenses, salary to sales staff and teachers).

We expect the gross margin of this segment to continue to be under pressure in the following few years, considering the fast expansion of: 1) the community products and services; 2) the property asset management services; and 3) the cultural and education services (requires three years to break even, and management plans to expand to 50 centres in 2018 and 100 centres in 2019, vs. 27 centres in 2017).

Consulting services Greentown Service also provides value-added services to non-property owners, including: 1) property under construction services to property developers for managing their pre-sale activities; and 2) management consulting services to other property management companies for their managed projects.

The revenue of this segment has achieved a 20% CAGR to reach RMB680mn in 2017, with property under construction services account for 84% of the income, and management consulting services account for the other 16%. Leveraging on its well-known brand name and good service quality, we expect this segment will continue its stable growth to reach RMB1.0bn in 2020F, implying a 14% CAGR.

Given the commission-based business nature, the gross margin of this segment is high at ~36% over the past few years, and we expect the high gross margin can be sustained in the following years.

Financial analysis

Profitability

Boosted by the strong growth of its GFA under management and its value- added services, the revenue of Greentown Service has achieved 32% CAGR since 2013. With the strong growth momentum to continue, we expect the revenue to post a 32% CAGR to reach RMB6.8bn/ RMB9.0bn/ RMB11.8bn in FY18-20F.

In terms of revenue breakdown, property management services should continue to be the major revenue contributor that accounts for 67% of the revenue and 44% of the gross profits in FY18F, considering its lower margin than value-added services.

With the slight margin expansion of property management services being off- set by the significant margin squeeze of community living services, we expect the overall gross margin to continue to be squeezed to 16-17% (vs. 18.4% in FY17), while net profit margin remains stable at ~7% (vs. 7.5% in FY17) due to the benefits from economies of scale. Hence, we forecast net profits to post a 26% CAGR to RMB496mn/ RMB618mn/ RMB779mn in the next three years, implying 22-24% ROE (vs. 20.2% in FY17) and 10-12% ROA (vs. 9.4% in FY17), given its asset-light business nature.

Liquidity

Greentown Service had repaid all its borrowings with its IPO proceeds in 2016. Thanks to its high management fee collection rate (96-99% over the past few years), the company has recorded strong operating cash inflow that can fully cover its dividend and capex. The cash on hand of the company has reached RMB2.0bn at end-2017 (equivalent to 48% of its total assets), and we expect it to increase 65% from the current level to RMB3.3bn by 2020F.

Also, Greentown Service has managed to significantly shorten its cash conversion cycle to 11 days in 2015 (vs. 31 days in 2013) under enhanced collection efforts. As of end-2017, only 1% of its trade receivables were overdue for >2 years. This implies a low default risk of its trade receivables (the

Valuation and risks

Valuation methodology

Our target price is based on a three-stage discounted cash flow of our free cash flow estimates. We believe a FCFE approach better reflects the value of property management companies, considering their strong operating cash inflows will be used for M&A, which could add substantial upside to our current earnings forecasts and potential dividends albeit payout ratios tend to be low during the growth phase. We apply 11.4% cost of equity (3.0% risk-free rate, 6.0% risk premium, 1.4x beta- consistent with other property developers), 5-25% free cash flow growth in the middle stage (10 years) and 3% terminal growth rate, reflecting a longer-term stable growth phase in line with China inflation. The benchmark index for the stock is MSCI China. Our target price of HKD7.39 implies 32x 12-month forward P/E (27x net cash-adjusted P/E) and 7.7x FY18F P/B.

Investment risks

Macro risks: Major macro risks include: 1) inflation may speed up the increase in minimum wages and other material costs, which in turn squeezes the margins of the industry; 2) the government’s strict regulations on property management services may deter the increase in property management fees; and 3) the potential cool-down of property sales in China may slow down the growth of the overall GFA under management of the property management industry.

Company-specific risks: The major company downside risks include: 1) the failure to bid for new projects or acquire other property management companies to expand its GFA under management; 2) a squeeze in margins due to increase in labour and material costs that can’t be transferred to property owners; and 3) longer-than-expected time for converting its reserve GFA to GFA under management due to delay in project deliveries. Upside risks are slower-than-expected margin squeeze of value-added services, and faster growth of GFA under management.

A highly-fragmented market with a size of 19.5bn sqm GFA under management

According to CREIS, the property management services market in China has been registering a 6.6% CAGR since 2009, and has exceeded 19.5bn sqm in 2017. However, similar to the property sales market, the property management services market in China is highly fragmented with hundreds of property management companies, such that the market share of each service provider is only a tiny part of the overall market.

For example, the market share (by GFA under management) of a few of the largest players only ranged from 0.4-1.5% in 2017, including 1.5% for Color Life, 0.7% for Greentown Service, 0.7% for Chinese Overseas Properties (COPL), 0.6% for CG Services, and 0.4% for A-Living.

Accelerating market consolidation is the key trend

The property management industry is still at the early stage of consolidation, with the top 10 players only owning 11.1% market share in 2017, according to CREIS. Although the absolute market share is still small, market consolidation has indeed been accelerated, from 2.9% in 2012 to 4.6% in 2014, 10.2% in 2016 and 11.1% in 2017.

The average GFA under management of the top 10 players has reached 216mn sqm in 2017, implying a 39% CAGR over the past five years (vs. 18% of the top

Page 26 Deutsche Bank AG/Hong Kong

Property Greentown Service

100 players). Hence, the GFA under management ratio of the top 10 / top 100 players has expanded to 5.8x in 2017 from 2.1x in 2012.

We expect market consolidation in the property management services industry to progress even further in the coming years, considering the following factors:

 Boosted market consolidation in property sales market: Based on CRIC data, the top 20 developers owned 32.5% market share of property sales in 2017, up from 25.2% in 2016. We expect this ratio to reach ~50% by 2020F, considering the diversified financing channels, better brand names/products, and stronger execution of the large developers. As primary property sales is one of the major channels that property management companies expand their reserve GFA to be managed (property management companies are usually the subsidiaries of the developers), the accelerated consolidation in the primary property sales market translates into a faster consolidation in the property management industry.

 Easier capital access of the large players for M&A: Dozens of property management companies have been listed in A and H share markets (via IPO, introduction listing, etc.) over the past few years. In addition to their operating cash inflows, listings gives them another financing channel for capital raising to any potential M&A. In fact, >20 major M&A have happened since 2015, and we expect this will continue, to become another major expansion strategy.

 Better brand name and service quality: Large property management companies can leverage on the national brand name of their parent companies (i.e. developers) when bidding for projects developed by third-parties. Also, large property management companies are usually more willing to invest on service standardization, which enhances their service quality to better than small local companies. For example, the bidding win rate of A-Living has remained high at >90%, while that of Greentown Services is also high at >70%.

Summary of major listed property management companies

Among the five major listed property management companies (namely CG Services, Greentown Service, A-Living, CPOL and Colour Life), we believe Greentown Service is the strongest in terms of overall competitiveness (mainly due to its quality landbank under management and good services), while Colour Life is the weakest (mainly due to its mid-to-low-end positioning and low profit margin).

It may also engage in transactions, for its own account or with customers, in a manner inconsistent with the views taken in this research report. Others within Deutsche Bank, including strategists, sales staff and other analysts, may take views that are inconsistent with those taken in this research report. Deutsche Bank issues a variety of research products, including fundamental analysis, equity-linked analysis, quantitative analysis and trade ideas.

Deutsche Bank provides liquidity for buyers and sellers of securities issued by the companies it covers. Deutsche Bank research analysts sometimes have shorter-term trade ideas that may be inconsistent with Deutsche Bank's existing longer-term ratings. Some trade ideas for equities are listed as Catalyst Calls on the Research Website (https://research.db.com/Research/) , and can be found on the general coverage list and also on the covered company’s page. A Catalyst Call represents a high-conviction belief by an analyst that a stock will outperform or underperform the market and/or a specified sector over a time frame of no less than two weeks and no more than three months. In addition to Catalyst Calls, analysts may occasionally discuss with our clients, and with Deutsche Bank salespersons and traders, trading strategies or ideas that reference catalysts or events that may have a near-term or medium-term impact on the market price of the securities discussed in this report, which impact may be directionally counter to the analysts' current 12-month view of total return or investment return as described herein. Deutsche Bank has no obligation to update, modify or amend this report or to otherwise notify a recipient thereof if an opinion, forecast or estimate changes or becomes inaccurate. Coverage and the frequency of changes in market conditions and in both general and company-specific economic prospects make it difficult to update research at defined intervals.

Prices and availability of financial instruments are subject to change without notice, and investment transactions can lead to losses as a result of price fluctuations and other factors. If a financial instrument is denominated in a currency other than an investor's currency, a change in exchange rates may adversely affect the investment. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Performance calculations exclude transaction costs, unless otherwise indicated.

Macroeconomic fluctuations often account for most of the risks associated with exposures to instruments that promise to pay fixed or variable interest rates. For an investor who is long fixed-rate instruments (thus receiving these cash flows), increases in interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a loss. The longer the maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be the loss. Upside surprises in inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adverse macroeconomic shocks to receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation (including changes in assets holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency convertibility (which may constrain currency conversion, repatriation of profits and/or liquidation of positions), and settlement issues related to local clearing houses are also important risk factors. The sensitivity of fixed-income instruments to macroeconomic shocks may be mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to FX depreciation, or to specified interest rates – these are common in emerging markets. The index fixings may – by construction – lag or mis-measure the actual move in the underlying variables they are intended to track. The choice of the proper fixing (or metric) is particularly important in swaps markets, where floating coupon rates (i.e., coupons indexed to a typically short-dated interest rate reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. Funding in a currency that differs from the currency in which coupons are denominated carries FX risk. Options on swaps (swaptions) the risks typical to options in addition to the risks related to rates movements.

Derivative transactions involve numerous risks including market, counterparty default and illiquidity risk. The appropriateness of these products for use by investors depends on the investors' own circumstances, including their tax position, their regulatory environment and the nature of their other assets and liabilities; as such, investors should take expert legal and financial advice before entering into any transaction similar to or inspired by the contents of this publication. The risk of loss in futures trading and options, foreign or domestic, can be substantial. As a result of the high degree of leverage obtainable in futures and options trading, losses may be incurred that are greater than the amount of funds initially deposited – up to theoretically unlimited losses. Trading in options involves risk and is not suitable for all investors. Prior to buying or selling an option, investors must review the "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options”, at http://www.optionsclearing.com/about/publications/character-risks.jsp. If you are unable to access the website, please contact your Deutsche Bank representative for a copy of this important document.

Participants in foreign exchange transactions may incur risks arising from several factors, including the following: (i) exchange rates can be volatile and are subject to large fluctuations; (ii) the value of currencies may be affected by numerous market factors, including world and national economic, political and regulatory events, events in equity and debt markets and changes in interest rates; and (iii) currencies may be subject to devaluation or government-imposed exchange controls, which could affect the value of the currency. Investors in securities such as ADRs, whose values are affected by the currency of an underlying security, effectively assume currency risk.

Unless governing law provides otherwise, all transactions should be executed through the Deutsche Bank entity in the investor's home jurisdiction. Aside from within this report, important conflict disclosures can also be found at https://research.db.com/Research/ on each company’s research page.
