Short-term pressure on 1H22 revenue / homing net profit

Sinorama released its mid-2022 report on August 26. 1H22's revenue was 3.602 billion yuan (YoY:-8.49%) and its mother's net profit was 333 million yuan (YOY:- 25.49%). This is mainly due to the reduction of advertising investment in some customers of unparalleled technology and the delay in the listing of customers in the data center under the background of repeated epidemic and Internet supervision. The company continues to consolidate its data center resource reserves in front-line / ring-first-line and other core areas, which is expected to become a support point for long-term performance. We estimate that the company's 22-year 24-year EBITDA will be 2.186 billion yuan 2.319 billion yuan (previous value: 20.44 pound 23.85 billion yuan). Taking into account the impact of rising electricity prices and declining customer demand in some unparalleled technology industries, the company was given a 22-year EV/EBITDA 15x (comparable company average: 17.2x), corresponding to the target price of 13.76 yuan (previous value: 22.14 yuan), maintaining the "overweight" rating.

IDC revenue remained robust; gross profit margin was affected to some extent by the rise in power costs. 1H22 IDC and its value-added services business realized revenue of 1.07 billion yuan, an increase of 9.68% over the same period last year. Under the influence of the epidemic in the first half of the year, the progress of project construction and the progress of customers on the shelves were affected to a certain extent, but the company's IDC business remained robust. The gross profit margin of the IDC business decreased by 13.57pct to 43.40% compared with the same period last year, mainly due to rising power costs and depreciation and amortization charges for newly delivered items. In the first half of 2022, on the one hand, the company steadily promoted the construction of the self-built data center project; on the other hand, the company completed the acquisition of Zanpu data Technology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., further expanding the IDC resource reserves in the core area of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. As of June 2022, the company has more than 110000 cabinets under construction and reserve project planning, and 47000 cabinets have been put into production.

Revenue from cloud computing and related services was under short-term pressure, and exchange losses caused the company's net interest rate to fluctuate. 1H22's revenue from cloud computing and related services reached 2.488 billion yuan, down 14.84% from the same period last year, mainly due to policies such as education double reduction / Internet regulation, which led to a decline in demand in related industries. Among them, the advertising business investment of subsidiary unparalleled technology real estate, education customers and some Internet industry customers continued to decline; cloud computing business gross profit margin fell 1.34pct to 7.48% compared with the same period last year. 1H22's net interest rate fell 2.29pct to 8.43% year-on-year, partly due to the increase in financial expense rate. 1H22's financial expense rate increased to 2.58% year-on-year, mainly due to the decline in the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar and an exchange loss of 33.4586 million yuan on the company's US dollar loans.

Maintain the "overweight" rating

We believe that as the company continues to expand its core IDC resource reserves, its long-term performance base is expected to be further consolidated. It is estimated that its 22-to-24-year EBITDA will be 2.319 billion yuan (previous value: 20.44 / 2.385 billion). The average EV/EBITDA of a 22-year comparable company is 17.2x. Taking into account the impact of rising electricity prices and declining demand for cloud computing in some industries, the company is given a 22-year EV/ EBITDA15x, corresponding to the target price of 13.76 yuan (previous value: 22.14 yuan), maintaining the "overweight" rating.

Risk hint: the customer's progress on the shelves is not as expected; the project construction and delivery progress is not as expected.
