China Construction Group has officially become the actual controller, and the integration is still in progress. In October 2018, the company signed a share transfer agreement with China Construction Qiming (a wholly owned subsidiary of China Construction Group). In January 2019, China Construction Group became the actual controller of the company. The ownership of China Construction Group can effectively reduce the company's pledge risk and improve the company's financial situation; in the future, China Construction Group is expected to integrate its environmental protection business and bring municipal engineering project resources to the company while helping the company break through the ceiling of the subdivided industry. further thicken the company's performance. According to the China News, the company did not further undertake new energy conservation and environmental protection project orders and investment and operation orders, nor further capital operation, indicating that the integration is still in progress. At present, with the changes in the macroeconomic situation at home and abroad and the pressure on the economic environment, infrastructure is expected to become an important means to support China's economy. China Construction Group, as an important enterprise in China's construction industry, will play an important role in this process; in addition, the company's magnetic separation water purification technology is expected to play a more important role in the treatment of black and smelly water bodies.
Maintain "overweight" rating: according to the actual operating situation of the company in the first half of 2019, without considering the municipal resources brought by China Construction Group for the time being, it is prudent to see that we have reduced the company's 19-21 net return profit to 1.32 pounds per annum (the original value is 1.58 pounds per annum). It is estimated that the company's EPS for 19-21 years will be 0.20 pounds 0.22 yuan respectively. The current share price is 24 times the 19-year PE. We believe that in the follow-up, China Construction Group is expected to expand its relevant business on the platform of listed companies, further increase the volume of business and assets, and look forward to bringing new growth momentum and maintaining the "overweight" rating after mixed reform and integration.
Risk hint: the company's original business development is lower than expected; the progress of integration is lower than expected.
