Equity Bottom-Up

Beijing Kingsoft Office Softwa / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
 <li>
Dominant Domestic Position with Strong Government Ties: Kingsoft Office is the leading domestic provider of office software in China with its flagship product, WPS Office. The company benefits significantly from China's push for technological self-reliance, securing a strong foothold in government agencies and state-owned enterprises (SOEs), which provides a stable and growing revenue base.</li>
 <li>
AI-Driven Growth Transition: The company is strategically pivoting to an AI-first model, integrating generative AI capabilities across its product suite with WPS AI. This initiative is already showing significant traction, with AI-related revenue surging and driving the growth of its collaborative office platform, WPS 365, offsetting declines in traditional software licensing.</li>
 <li>
Intensifying Competition and Valuation Concerns: Despite its domestic strength, Kingsoft faces formidable competition from Microsoft, which remains a dominant global player. The company's premium valuation (high P/E and P/S ratios) relative to the broader industry suggests high growth expectations are already priced in, posing a risk if execution falters or market conditions change.</li>
