GREENTOWN MANAGEMENT(9979.HK):FY23 RESULTS IN-LINE:>30% NP AND 100% PAY PAYOUT
Greentown Management delivered +31% YoY growth in net profit in FY23 and offered a special dividend for the second time that maintained the pay-out ratio at 100%, representing 8% div. yield. We think company's capability of timely business restructuring supported its consistent delivery of strong performance among sluggish property market, which deserves a valuation premium. Maintain BUY with TP at HK$ 9.37, reflecting 13x 2024E PE.
綠城管理在23財年實現了淨利潤同比增長31%,並第二次派發了特別股息,將派息率維持在100%,相當於8%的股息收益率。我們認爲,公司及時進行業務重組的能力支持了其在疲軟的房地產市場中持續保持強勁的表現,這值得估值溢價。維持買入,目標價爲9.37港元,反映了2024E的13倍市盈率。
NP +31% YoY, maintained 100% div. pay-out. Company reported attributable NP of RMB 974mn in FY23, +31% YoY, in-line with our forecast given its effective operational cost control resulted in a decrease in SG&A fee as % of revenue (excl. D&A) (16% in FY23 vs. 20% in FY22) and lower effective tax rate (17% in FY23 vs. 20% in FY22) as more subsidiaries obtained "high-tech enterprise certification" that subjected to lower tax rate. GP margin was stable at 52% with that for commercial PJM decreased 2ppt to 52% as services scope was expanded for certain projects which requires assistance from third parties. GP margin for government PJM improved 4ppt to 45% due to optimized staff evaluation mechanism. Investors felt comforting about the special dividend that maintained a 100% pay-out ratio amid the lacklustre market.
淨利率同比增長31%,維持100%的股息支出。鑑於其有效的運營成本控制導致銷售和收購費用佔收入的百分比下降(不包括在內),公司在23財年公佈的應占淨利潤爲9.74億元人民幣,同比增長31%,符合我們的預測D&A)(23財年爲16%,22財年爲20%),以及隨着越來越多的子公司獲得稅率較低的 “高科技企業認證”,有效稅率降低(23財年爲17%,22財年爲20%)。GP利潤率穩定在52%,商業PJM的利潤率下降了2個百分點至52%,這是由於某些需要第三方援助的項目的服務範圍擴大了。由於優化了員工評估機制,政府總理的GP利潤率提高了4個百分點至45%。在市場乏善可陳的情況下,特別股息維持了100%的派息率,投資者對此感到欣慰。
Guided industry-leading growth in next three years. Company guided +20% and +25% CAGR for revenue and NP in next three years, which may outperform most companies in broader property market. We are positive on company's ability to achieve this target as 1) +20% CAGR for revenue equals to c.RMB15bn revenue in total for FY24-26E, while company currently has billable contract value of RMB 25bn which does not include a new increase of c.RMB10bn each year. The dividend pay-out ratio was guided at 80%.
指導未來三年實現行業領先增長。公司預計,未來三年的收入和淨利潤複合年增長率分別爲+20%和+25%,這可能會超過整個房地產市場中的大多數公司。我們對公司實現這一目標的能力持樂觀態度,因爲 1) +20% 的收入複合年增長率相當於 FY24-26E 總收入約150億元人民幣,而公司目前的計費合同價值爲250億元人民幣,其中不包括每年新增的約100億元人民幣。股息支付率預計爲80%。
Remarkable adaptability deserves attention. Company once again kept its good record on target completion despite the bleak property market condition. We think the company's agility in adjusting business structure played a crucial role. Company stepped into PJM for FIs and LGFVs in FY22 since demand from SMDs decreased, and it further increased its effort in "home delivery guarantee" in FY23 to align with policy directives. As residential market is contracting, company also expanded business to non- residential project which accounted for 15% of its new contact in FY23.
卓越的適應性值得關注。儘管房地產市場狀況不佳,但公司再次保持了良好的目標完成記錄。我們認爲,公司在調整業務結構方面的靈活性發揮了至關重要的作用。由於SMD的需求下降,公司於22財年加入了金融機構和地方政府融資的PJM,並在23財年進一步加大了 “送貨上門保障” 的力度,以符合政策指令。隨着住宅市場的萎縮,公司還將業務擴展到非住宅項目,該項目佔其23財年新合同的15%。
Maintain BUY with TP at HK$9.37. We like company by its asset-light model, high cash flow and high dividend yield (8% as of last trading day) as well as repeatedly validated target achievement capability. Our new TP of HK$ 9.37 reflecting 13x 2024E PE. Risks: property sales drop, LGFV default.
維持買入,目標價爲9.37港元。我們之所以喜歡這家公司,是因爲其輕資產模式、高現金流和高股息收益率(截至上個交易日爲8%)以及反覆驗證的目標實現能力。我們的新目標價爲9.37港元,反映了2024年的13倍市盈率。風險:房地產銷售下降,LGFV違約。
