Downgrade profit forecast and maintain "overweight" rating
In 2017, the company effectively reduced fees and losses by closing loss-making stores, but considering that the company's revenue was still in the decline stage, we downgraded the company's fully diluted EPS forecast for 2017-2019 to 0.25 / 0.28 / 0.29 yuan (previously 0.29 / 0.31 / 0.33 yuan), maintaining the "overweight" rating.
Risk hint: the effect of store adjustment is not as expected, and the recovery of middle and high-end consumption is not as expected.
