<li>CHJ’s business model integrates franchise stores and self-operated stores. Franchising as the main approach is beneficial for achieving rapid expansion, while self-operation as a supplement helps to enhance brand image.</li>
<li>Due to increasing competition, future growth of CHJ may not be benefit from the high gold prices, but may be under pressure due to rising raw material costs/reduced customer demand.</li>
<li>We think valuation of CHJ should be lower than Laopu, but could be higher than <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/zhou-liu-fu-jewellery-co-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:43706:1" rel="noopener">Zhou Liu Fu (6168 HK)</a> due to CHJ’s higher performance growth in the short term.  </li>
