The product is refreshing in appearance and won the gold award of the top ten design innovations in the world before it came on the market.

Strategic transformation and upgrading have continued to advance, and multi-dimensional efforts have been made to consolidate the leading position. FY23 fiscal year is the second year of Bosideng International's new three-year plan, the company continues to make efforts in marketing and channels to achieve sustained and steady performance growth targets. In terms of channels, we will continue to optimize the offline channel structure, close small stores and inefficient distribution stores, and expect to open 300 high-quality large area stores, increase the coverage of low-line cities, and give excellent dealers more decoration and rebate support. October is expected to officially open the first Nanjing West Road experience store, comprehensively optimize user experience and drive performance growth with high-quality stores. The online layout of multi-platform development, the establishment of Douyin independent division, in the traditional platform traffic saturation to actively develop the second growth curve, from April to August Douyin doubled year-on-year growth.

The old stock placement clarifies the shareholding structure, and the stock price callback has a high performance-to-price ratio. Bosideng International issued an announcement on September 1 that controlling shareholder Yingxin International sold 230 million shares at HK $3.94 per share to redeem Itochu's preferred shares and pay dividends on preferred shares. After the sale, Yingxin International's shareholding ratio was reduced to 33.2%. Affected by the old stock sale, the stock price has fluctuated, we believe that this incident is mainly due to the expiration of the cooperation between the company and Itochu, the two sides reached a consensus not to cooperate in the form of preferred shares and to redeem preferred shares in order to clarify the equity relationship. After the redemption transaction is completed this year, Gao Dekang Family Trust will hold 100% of Yingxin shares. This incident will not have a substantial impact on the operational level, the company's fundamentals continue to be upward, the pace of new product release is smooth, and the marketing promotion before the arrival of the peak season is superimposed. It is expected that the full-year performance growth will still have a strong certainty. After the current stock price correction, the valuation already has a high performance-to-price ratio.

The company is a leader in the down jacket industry, with its profound industry accumulation and efficient organizational change ability to broaden the moat from the product, marketing, channel, operation and other aspects to maintain the "buy" rating.
