For the policy and monetary environment, the key note of healthy property market maintenance will not change. Currently, we expect a tightening up of monetary environment alongside gradual rate hikes in the US and the beginning of new asset management regulation in China. On 23 Apr. 2018, the Political Bureau Conference of the CPC Central Committee proposed expansion of demand and stability in the property market. Thus, targeted policies will be maintained to promote the steady and sound development of the property sector.

We think that commodity housing sales will only experience limited decline. Urbanization, demand from housing replacement and monetization of squatter settlement rebuilding will lead to sustainable housing demand in 2018-2020. Moreover, if the property market starts to slump, the policy and credit environment related to the property sector should ease again to

stabilize the property market as per the last round of policy easing which started on 30 Sep. 2014. (03333 HK)

We expect contracted sales to maintain steady growth due to sufficient saleable resources in wide geographic locations. During 2017, contracted sales amounted to RMB500.96 bn, increasing by 34.2% YoY, achieving its 2017 sales target. The Company's saleable resources fully covered all city tiers. However, policy tightening was only targeted towards cities with overheating property markets, especially higher-tier cities, and policies still support housing sales in lower-tier cities with high

amounts of stock. Therefore, the Company's contracted sales are likely to be supported by its sufficient resources in wide Report geographic locations. In addition, the Company’s quality brand and competitive ASP should support its contracted sales as well. During Jan.-Apr. 2018, Evergrande’s contracted sales reached RMB212.26 mn, up 46.6%, achieving 38.6% of its 2018 sales

target (RMB 550.00 bn, hinting 9.8% YoY increase). Company

The Company’s other segment was well operated in 2017. Evergrande will continue to focus on financial, health care and cultural tourism industries as services business segments. Evergrande Finance Group provides integrated diversified financial

] 2 r a M t h g i R _ e l b a T [ services. It holds 17.28% equity interest in Shengjing Bank. The net profit of Shengjing Bank amounted to RMB7.67 bn, up 10.1% YoY in 2017. Meanwhile, the original premium income of Evergrande Life amounted to RMB28.1 bn, soaring by 710% YoY, representing 77% of total premium income. Premium income from new insurance policies amounted to RMB4.6 bn, an increase of 20 times YoY. Evergrande Tourism Group focuses on its flagship product "Evergrande Fairyland", with 11 cultural tourism projects. The GFA for tourism was 43.07 mn sq.m. During 2017, contracted sales from cultural tourism projects amounted to RMB22.68 bn. Evergrande Health Group is engaged in operations including new high-end international hospitals and community healthcare services.

The Company will slow down its pace of land replenishment activities to enhance its balance sheet. In 2017, the

Company acquired 226 parcels of land with a total GFA of 126 mn sq.m., up 23.5% YoY. The average land cost amounted to RMB1,889 per sq.m., 58% of all newly acquired projects were in tier-1 and tier-2 cities. The Company also has 41 projects in

Shenzhen with a planned GFA of 237.1 mn sq.m. Saleable GFA amounted to 11.71 mn sq.m. Potential GFA from redevelopment (03333 HK) projects amounted to 539.4 mn sq.m.

Enormous scale of land banks with proper unit land costs support the Company's contracted sales with stable gross 中国恒大 margins. As at the end of 2017, the Company had 766 projects in 228 cities. Total GFA amounted to 312 mn sq.m., up 36.2% YoY. Its unit land cost amounted to RMB1,711 per sq.m., 16.5% of ASP during Jan.-Apr. 2018. We estimate gross margins to

remain at around 36.1% in 2018-2020. Evergrande

The Company will strive to decrease its net gearing ratio, which will decrease the Company’s operating risks. Costs of

borrowing and perpetual instruments dramatically squeezed the Company's profit in 2016] . In1 2017,r a wM itht sufficienth g i R cash_ e onl handb a , T [

capital increasing from strategic investors and projected increase in net profit, the Company will extend its deleveraging process,

thus, promoting the Company's profitability. The Company has transferred its strategy from "scale development" to "scale + efficiency development". We expect stable contracted sales growth, increase in profitability and scale growth reduction of land reserves. Therefore, the net gearing ratio will gradually decrease to a healthy level during 2018-2020. Balance sheet enhancement could decrease the Company’s operating risks. 14 May2018 2017 underlying net profit was in line with our expectation. Top line increased by 47.1% YoY to RMB311,022 mn in 2017 due to strong contracted sales growth and more GFA delivered. Gross profit amounted to RMB112,262 mn, soaring 88.9% YoY. Given less financial costs and net profit attributed to perpetual capital instruments, net profit jumped 378.7% YoY to RMB24,372 mn, in line with our expectation. Moreover, underlying net profit dramatically jumped by 3.67 times YoY to RMB23,638 mn, which was also in line with our expectation. The Company recorded improving gross margin with a gain of 8.0 ppts YoY. Underlying net profit margin increased 4.5 ppts YoY to 7.6%. Net gearing ratio sharply fell 106.2 ppts YoY riding on net profit soaring and capital increase from strategic investors during 2017.

We revise up underlying profit estimations. Total revenue in 2017 was in line with our previous assumption. We expect that Evergrande's contracted sales will maintain steady growth due to sufficient saleable resources over a wide geographic location. Therefore, we have slightly adjusted 2018F and 2019F total revenue by -1.3% and 2.0% to RMB435,899 mn and RMB548,015 mn, respectively. With a quality land bank and proper unit land cost, we expect stable gross margins in 2018-2020. As the gross margin in 2017 was higher than our previous assumption, we have revised up gross margin. Overall, we revise up 2018F and 2019F underlying net profit by 9.5% and 9.0% to RMB35,923 mn and RMB46,734 mn, respectively. We expect lower net gearing ratio and stronger balance sheet to follow the Company’s strategy of "scale and efficiency development”. However, net gearing ratio in 2017 was higher than our previous expectation. Thus, we revise up net gearing ratio in 2018F and 2019F by 12.3 ppts and 14.4 ppts, respectively. Nevertheless, we still expect that net gearing ratios will gradually decrease to a healthy level during

2018-2020. Report

Maintain "Buy". The Company will focus on its strategy of "scale + efficiency development". Contracted sales should maintain steady growth. The Company’s diversified business distribution operated well in 2017. Quality land bank with proper unit land cost stabilized gross margin. In addition, net gearing ratio is likely to gradually decrease to a healthy level. The Company’s fundamentals are likely to further improve alongside balance sheet enhancement and profitability improvement. Evergrande’s operating risks should gradually decrease. This is favorable, especially when monetary environment is tightening up. Overall, as we revise up underlying net profit, we revise up target price from HK$29.60 to HK$30.17, which represents a 32% discount to the Company’s revised 2018E NAV of HK$44.36 per share, 9.2x underlying 2018 PER and 2.2x 2018 PBR. We maintain Evergrande's investment rating as "Buy". Key risk factors include: lower-than-expected house sales and listing failure for
