Equity Bottom-Up

Beijing Roborock Technology  / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Roborock's margins are expected to bottom-out after a tough four quarters of strategically prioritizing market share at the cost of margins. 3Q-4Q25 will mark the start of new margin cycle.</li>
<li>Margins stabilizing at the new normal of 12-14% NPM will mean earnings will track revenue growth going forward. Meanwhile, revenues can surprise on the upside with &gt;25% CAGR in medium-term.</li>
<li>
HK-Listing into 2H25/ 1H26 is a strong catalyst which can bring in fresh money, and improve disclosure standards - a key concern. We expect 70% upside in our bull case.
