Lucror Analytics is a leading credit and ESG research specialist and a provider of technology solutions for differentiated fixed income strategies. Our roots are in bottom-up fundamental credit analysis with a specialization in high yield corporate credits from Europe, Asia and Latin America.

Our company has been at the forefront of developments in the fixed income markets, identifying opportunities and consistently delivering new products and value-adding solutions to clients. Lucror has close relationships with the largest and most reputable asset managers, family offices, hedge funds, investment and wealth managers globally.

Credit

Fosun International’s H1/22 results appear to be reasonable, with higher revenue but lower earnings. The reported credit metrics are not very representative of the credit profile in our view, given the company's investment holding nature. Thus, it is difficult to assess Fosun's credit health. However, we take some comfort from the rate of divestments, which is outpacing the rate of investments. Reported liquidity on a consolidated basis seems adequate. That said, we have no visibility on liquidity at the holdco. Still, we highlight that Fosun has major assets to be sold, especially those without ample synergies. The company has accelerated its asset sale process since 2021. However, it cannot name the assets currently, as details of the transactions are still confidential. Moreover, Fosun does not wish to affect the morale of employees at these assets. The asset disposals are focused on non-core assets, which are typically not listed.
