Overweight BYD Company Limited -H 1211.HK, 1211 HK Another beat Price: HK$51.40 Price Target: HK$75.00

BYD’s 3Q16 result was a moderate beat vs. our/ consensus estimates and at the higher end of guidance. We raise our 2016E earnings by 7% to Head of Asia Auto Research reflect the beat. We believe the company’s motor battery capacity is one of Nick Lai AC its most valuable assets while fast-growing xEV demand in the China (852) 2800 8543 market would continue to boost BYD’s sales in both passenger (EV [email protected] and PHEV) and EV bus businesses. Besides policy regulation supporting Bloomberg JPMA LAI leading motor battery suppliers (like BYD), NDRC’s recent announcement Rebecca Y Wen that China will impose a carbon emission trading scheme from 2017 (click (852) 2800-8505 [email protected] here) should further mitigate potential earnings shortfall from reduced J.P. Morgan Securities (Asia Pacific) Limited financial subsidy. BYD-H is among our top picks in the China auto OEM space besides and Brilliance China. Price Performance 60

 Recap of our thesis/future catalysts: 1) We are bullish on China's NEV 50 HK$ industry and believe this will be a powerful, multi-year structure trend 40 (30% CAGR towards 2020). 2) China government recently announced it 30 will impose a carbon trade scheme and is expected to announce its Oct-15 Jan-16 Apr-16 Jul-16 Oct-16 investigation result on NEV fraud sales soon. We view these as 1211.HK share price (HK$) HSCEI (rebased) structurally positive for leading OEMs such as BYD. 3) We believe YTD 1m 3m 12m industry battery supply will remain tight in the near term. Our view is Abs 24.6% -2.3% 2.7% 5.8% that the value of BYD lies primarily in its battery capability and Rel 22.4% -0.2% -2.1% 15.7% capacity.

 3Q16 result highlights: 1) While revenue was up 13%qoq, higher admin expense and tax rate led to a flat 3Q16 NP vs. 2Q16. 2) 3Q16 came in at Rmb1.4bn, the higher end of previous guidance at Rmb1.3-1.48bn. The company is now guiding FY16 NP at Rmb5.0-5.2bn vs. our previous estimate of Rmb4.7bn.

 OW, risks: We revised our 2016E earnings by 7% and retain OW on H- shr with PT at HK$75 on SoTP. Risks: unfavorable changes in NEV policy and worse than expected NEV sales.

Investment Thesis, Valuation and Risks

BYD Company Limited - H (Overweight; Price Target: HK$75.00) Investment Thesis 1)We are bullish on China's NEV industry and believe this will be a powerful, multi- year structure trend (30% CAGR towards 2020). 2) China government recently announced it will impose a carbon trade scheme and is expected to announce its investigation result on NEV fraud sales soon. These, in our view, will be structurally positive for leading OEMs such as BYD. 3) We believe industry battery supply will remain tight in the near term. Our view is that the value of BYD lies primarily in its battery capability and capacity.

Valuation We remain OW on BYD-H with a Jun-17 PT of HK$75 on SOTP analysis. Our assumptions include: a 25x 2016E P/E for the NEV business (as relevant players in the NEV business globally trade largely at a 20-30x P/E, so we believe 25x is reasonable), 8x for the ICE business, a 1.2x P/BV for the battery business, a 9x P/E for BYD-E and 0.8x for residual book value.

Risks to Rating and Price Target Downside risks include: (1) missing estimates – bumpy learning curve for various parties, including bus companies/consumers; (2) product hiccups – BYD running into product recall/battery warranty issues, as seen at other auto brands; and (3) competition – global auto brands/battery makers ramping up shipments in China production plants.

The chart(s) show J.P. Morgan's continuing coverage of the stocks; the current analysts may or may not have covered it over the entire period. J.P. Morgan ratings or designations: OW = Overweight, N= Neutral, UW = Underweight, NR = Not Rated Explanation of Equity Research Ratings, Designations and Analyst(s) Coverage Universe: J.P. Morgan uses the following rating system: Overweight [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will outperform the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Neutral [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will perform in line with the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Underweight [Over the next six to twelve months, we expect this stock will underperform the average total return of the stocks in the analyst’s (or the analyst’s team’s) coverage universe.] Not Rated (NR): J.P. Morgan has removed the rating and, if applicable, the price target, for this stock because of either a lack of a sufficient fundamental basis or for legal, regulatory or policy reasons. The previous rating and, if applicable, the price target, no longer should be relied upon. An NR designation is not a recommendation or a rating. In our Asia (ex-Australia) and U.K. small- and mid-cap equity research, each stock’s expected total return is compared to the expected total return of a benchmark country market index, not to those analysts’ coverage universe. If it does not appear in the Important Disclosures section of this report, the certifying analyst’s coverage universe can be found on J.P. Morgan’s research website, www.jpmorganmarkets.com.
