On the expense side, the sales expense rate is 13.1% and the management expense rate is 33.0%, which is basically the same.

K12 business revenue increased by 37% over the same period last year, which is the main growth force, and overseas examination-related business is gradually recovering. In terms of business structure, K12 business was the main growth force of the company, with revenue growth of 37% during the reporting period, including 35% year-on-year growth in middle school business income and 40% year-on-year growth in primary school business income. Affected by the overseas epidemic, the business income of preparing for exams abroad decreased by 12% compared with the same period last year, but with the promotion of vaccines, the business income of consulting and studying abroad increased by 11%.

The number of training people has increased by 43% compared with the same period last year, and the expansion of offline outlets continues to accelerate. 1) number of students:

The number of students enrolled in the company in the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 was about 2.3 million, an increase of 43% over the same period last year, of which the number of K12 students increased by 57%. 2) the number of outlets: as of February 28, 2021, the total number of schools and learning centers has reached 1625, a net increase of 209 compared with the same period last year and a net increase of 107. the expansion of the company's network has accelerated in the past three years, under the background of industry clearance, the company's accelerated sinking is expected to further increase its market share. At the same time, the company relies on the OMO model and localized teaching and research to cover a wider range of areas and students. OMO strategy has made a greater contribution to the total revenue of the quarter. At present, the company has implemented OMO online courses in most existing cities and 25 new surrounding satellite cities.

Investment advice: New Oriental Education & Technology Group since the transformation of K12 field in 2008, rapid national expansion, growth into a national leader, has established a high degree of brand recognition. In view of the fact that the K12 education and training market is extremely scattered, the sinking market space is large, the policy will be stricter from 2018, and the impact of the 2020 epidemic will be superimposed, small and medium-sized training institutions will gradually clear out, and the leading market share is expected to increase. It is optimistic that the company will rely on the OMO model to sink deeply (first-and second-tier cities, third-and fourth-tier cities), coverage areas and student scale will be further expanded. We expect revenue of $4.18 billion, $5.54 billion and net profit of $4.5 billion, respectively, for the 2021-2023 fiscal year, corresponding to a PE multiple of 61-42-30, maintaining a "buy-A" rating.

Risk hint: K12 training policy supervision is stricter, store sinking is less than expected, OMO model is not as expected.
