Slow Earnings Growth but Attractive Discount to A-Shares

: Tsingtao Brewery (00168 HK) Sunny Kwok 郭 日 升 公 司 报 告 : 青 岛 啤 酒 (00168 HK) +852 2509 2642 sunny.kwok@gtjas.com.hk Slow Earnings Growth but Attractive Discount to A-Shares 盈 利 低 速 增 长 但 与 A 股 折 让 较 大 GTJA Research 国 泰 君 安 研 究 Beer industry s production volume in China decreased by 4.3% during Jan.-May 2015, while revenue and profit before tax growth of beer manufacturers in China were 1.3% and 60.2%, respectively, during Jan.-Apr. 2015. Tsingtao s sales volume, revenue and core net profit growth in 1Q15 were -5., -3.1% and -2.1%, respectively, which all underperformed industry averages and major peers. Tsingtao targets to gain market share and aims to achieve sales volume growth which is at least 2 ppt above industry average. We believe Tsingtao has the ability to achieve such results but given weakening demand for beer, the Company s sales growth is expected to remain slow. All beer manufacturers are targeting to improve their sales mix for profitability improvement but Tsingtao is sacrificing its low-end products sales volume. To conclude, we trim previous reported EPS forecast for 2015-2016 by 3.7% and 0.8%, respectively. Tsingtao s reported EPS is expected to reach RMB1.593, RMB1.701 and RMB1.783 in 2015-2017, respectively. Rating: 评 级 : Neutral Maintained 中 性 ( 维 持 ) 6-18m TP 目 标 价 : HK$50.00 Revised from 原 目 标 价 : HK$49.00 Share price 股 价 : Stock performance 股 价 表 现 25.0 20.0 15.0 10.0 % of return HK$48.850 Tsingtao s H-shares are now trading at roughly 22. discount to its A-shares but H-share valuation is just fair. CAGR of Tsingtao s sales during 2009-2014 was 10. but core operating profit CAGR for the same period was only 2.4%. Therefore, we still maintain Neutral on Tsingtao and slightly revise up TP to HK$50.00 on roll over.

Underperformed Peers in 1Q15. YTD (Jan.-May 2015) production volume growth of beer in China decreased by 4.3% YoY, while revenue and profit before tax growth of beer manufacturers in China for the first 4 months in 2015 were 1.3% and 60.2%, respectively. Sales growth of beer manufacturers in China was slower than other kinds of wineries during Jan.-May 2015. Tsingtao, the second largest beer manufacturer in terms of sales volume in China, reported weak 1Q15 results and underperformed its major peers. Although 1Q is still a slack season for beer, sluggish demand for beer and intensifying competition from peers could continue to post threat to Tsingtao in the coming quarters. In addition, the Company s sales mix trade up was at the expense of sales volume growth, which is slightly disappointing. The Company aims to achieve sales volume growth outperforming the industry average by 2 ppt in 2015 and we believe this should be achievable given continuous industry consolidation driving small players out of the market. Beer production volume growth in China is expected to speed up on expected normalized hot summer in 2015, compared to relatively cool and wet summer in 2014. However, we only expect Tsingtao s sales volume to increase by 2. YoY in 2015. Without further M&A, we do not expect the Company to be able to sell 100 million hl beer in 2015-2016.

Annual beer production per capita in China was 36.0 litres in 2014, down 1. YoY. As Japan s annual beer consumption per capita was only 43.1 litres in 2013, we remain cautious on the long term growth of beer consumption in China and we expect long term growth will remain sluggish as compared to other F&B markets in China. The annual beer consumption growth in China is expected to be slower than that of GDP growth in the long run. The concentration ratio of the 4 largest beer manufacturers in China in 2014 and 1Q15 reached 68. and 72.2%, up 2.2 and 2.0 ppt YoY. There are still rooms for these big players to increase their market shares but pace of industry consolidation is expected to slow. In addition, we do not expect these beer manufacturers to directly increase their products ASP before 2016 but product mix upgrade helps.

Production Cost to Remain Stable in 2015. Malt price stayed low while packaging cost and rice price are not expected to post huge pressure to beer manufacturers. Sales mix improvement is expected to offset negative impact from rising labour costs. As we do not expect direct ASP hike to be seen, Tsingtao s gross margin is expected to stay at similar level in 2015 as compared to that in 2014. See the last page for disclaimer Page 3 of 7

Earnings Forecast Assumptions and Revisions: Earnings Cut on Lower Sales Volume and Finance. We lower Tsingtao s sales volume expectation as demand for beer in China remains weak on slowing economic growth. rate cut in China is also expected to negatively affect the Company s net finance income. Therefore, we revise down Tsingtao s reported net profit by 3.7% and 0.8% in 2015-2016, respectively. Tsingtao s reported EPS for 2015-2017 are expected to be RMB1.593, RMB1.701 and RMB1.783, up 8.2%, 6.8% and 4.8% in 2015-2017, respectively.

Maintain Neutral and Raise TP to HK$50.00. Although we do expect Tsingtao s market share to grow, slowing beer consumption growth in China is expected to negatively affect the Company s earnings growth. Tsingtao s core operating profit (2009: RMB1,711 mn; 2014: RMB1,922 mn) did not grow in line with revenue growth (CAGR of 10. during 2009-2014). Tsingtao s earnings are highly sensitive to ASP hike but we see limited possibility of ASP hike in 2015 as well as in 2016. On the other hand, Tsingtao s financials and cash flow are extremely healthy and we expect the Company s dividend payout ratio to keep growing in the future. H-share is traded at average discounts of 20. and 6. to A-share during 2000-2015 and 2006-2015 but is traded at a 5.1% premium to A-share during 2010-2015. Currently H-share is trading at roughly 22. discount to A-share but valuation is just fair as the Company is trading at 24.4x 2015 PER and earnings growth is expected to be very slow on weak sales volume growth expectation. Our DCF-based TP is HK$50.00, which represents 24.9x 2015 PER, 23.3x 2016 PER and 22.3x 2017 PER. Our rating is maintained at Neutral. See the last page for disclaimer Page 4 of 7
