China Communications Construction (1800 HK) has bucked the trend of weaker earnings growth in the last two quarters by posting a healthy 17.7% YoY net profit growth for 1Q22.
While gross margin contracted slightly, the good control on selling and administrative expenses have partly absorbed margin contraction. Its new contract value for 1Q22 has also reached record high.
With government's aggressive special purpose bond issue and infrastructure investment, we expect new contract momentum to pick up. Trading at 3.2x PER and 0.22x P/B, CCCC is massively undervalued.
