財通證券 ·  Mar 10

Incident: Nanhua Futures released its 2023 annual report, achieving operating income and net profit of 62.47 billion yuan and 402 million yuan, respectively, of -8.45% and +63.32% year-on-year respectively. Among them, it achieved operating income and net profit of 13.98 million yuan and 103 million yuan respectively in the fourth quarter, respectively, of -13.30% and -9.38% year-on-year respectively.

The sharp increase in net interest income is the main source of the company's high performance growth. In 2023, the company's net fee revenue, net interest income, other business income (net method), and investment income were 6.12, 5.45, 0.68, and 0.52 billion yuan, respectively, +22.8%, +67.0%, +134.3%, and -45.2% year-on-year, accounting for 47.9%, 42.7%, 5.3%, and 4.1% of net revenue, respectively. Net interest income was the core driver of the company's high performance increase.

Growth in the equity of overseas customers+high US federal funds interest rates drive a high increase in net interest income: 1) Judging from the revenue structure, overseas business is the core component of the company's net interest income. The domestic share is measured by net interest income from the parent company's statement, and the overseas share is measured by subtracting the net income from interest on the consolidated statement. Net domestic and overseas interest income in 2023 was 1.51 billion yuan and 394 million yuan, respectively, -24.5% and +211.6% year-on-year, accounting for 27.7% and 72.3% of the company's net interest income, respectively; 2) Judging from revenue drivers, the increase in overseas customer equity and interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve is the core reason for the sharp increase in net interest income from overseas customers. Growth, and the continued high level of US federal funds interest rates in 2023 provided strong support for the company's net income from foreign interest.

Domestic business is developing steadily, and the results of the multi-sector layout are gradually showing: 1) In terms of fees, domestic fee revenue was +21.0% to 483 million yuan in 2023, which is expected to be mainly driven by futures brokerage and wealth management businesses. By the end of 2023, the company's public equity management scale and asset management scale were +38.65%, +75.27% to 211.11 and 1,283 billion yuan, respectively; 2) In terms of net interest income, the parent company's net interest income is -24.5% to 151 million yuan, which is expected to be mainly due to falling interest rates and rising debt costs. At the end of 2023, the company's domestic futures brokerage business customer equity ratio was +11.32% to RMB 21.248 billion; 3) The overall risk management business developed rapidly. In 2023, the OTC derivatives business added +10.27% of nominal principal to RMB 79.114 billion, and the market making business turnover was +17.43% YoY to RMB 927.419 billion.

Investment advice: Optimistic about the company's alpha in overseas business through a global clearing system and industry beta brought about by the expansion of the domestic futures market. In terms of overseas business, the return of hedging capital from Chinese enterprises combined with the company's unique clearing advantages is expected to drive continued growth in customer rights; in terms of domestic business, the liberalization of new businesses+accelerated market entry of industrial customers+accelerated introduction of new products are expected to drive the continuous expansion of the scale of the industry. The company is expected to achieve net profit of 509 million yuan, 5.83 million yuan and 658 million yuan respectively in 2024-2026, +26.6%, +14.5%, and +12.9%, respectively. The PE corresponding to the closing price on March 8 is 12.80, 11.18, and 9.90 times, respectively, maintaining an “increase in holdings” rating.

Risk warning: the transaction scale of futures agents has shrunk sharply; brokerage rates have fallen sharply; risk management business has experienced market, credit and liquidity risks; fluctuations in overseas business operations
