CSI300 Index Rebalance Preview: 30 Potential Changes as Sector Rotation Continues

By Brian Freitas

  • We expect the maximum permitted 30 changes at a single review to take place at the June rebalance. Most changes are high probability.
  • We estimate a one-way turnover of 4.25% at the rebalance leading to a one-way trade of CNY 10.677bn.
  • Industrials, Information Technology and Materials sectors are expected to have the most net inclusions, while Health Care and Financials are expected to have the most net deletions.

Shenzhen Intl (152 HK): It’s the Ability to Realise Underlying Value that Matters

By Osbert Tang, CFA

  • Shenzhen International (152 HK) has secured pre-tax gain of HK$2.8bn from deemed disposal of Qianhai Business and this is another example for its ability to realise underlying asset value.  
  • SZI still holds a 50% stake in Qianhai Business, allowing it to capture further upside from this project. The transaction should also improve cash flow as land fees are repaid.
  • Other logistics transformation projects like the South China Logistics Park, which has an area even larger than Qianhai Business, will provide upside for the longer term. 

PAG Pre-IPO – The Positives – Past Record Has Been Decent

By Sumeet Singh

  • PAG aims to raise around US$2bn via its Hong Kong IPO.
  • PAG is an alternative investment firm focused on Asia-Pacific (APAC), it had approximately US$50bn in assets under management (AUM), as of Dec 21.
  • In this note, we will talk about the positive aspects of the deal.

Suchuang Gas (1430 HK): 10th June Court Meeting As Shares Remain Suspended

By David Blennerhassett

  • Suchuang Gas Corp (1430 HK)‘s Scheme Document is now out. The Scheme Meeting will be held on the 10th June with expected payment on or before the 21 June. 
  • The Independent Financial Advisor (Essence International) has concluded the offer by CR Gas (1193 HK) is fair and reasonable. 
  • The pain is almost over for shareholders. This is as good a deal one can expect under the circumstances. Shareholders should vote through the Offer resolutions and pocket the cash. 

Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine (600276.CH) 2021/2022Q1 Results – Can You Afford to Wait?

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • The 2021 report is the worst ever annual report of Hengrui, with double drop in both revenue and net profit.2021Q4 and 2022Q1 are also the worst two quarters so far.
  • Although Hengrui has invested heavily in R&D and internationalization, it’s still trying to follow an established model with better security.Essentially, Hengrui is still the same Hengrui. Nothing has changed fundamentally. 
  • For now, Hengrui hasn’t released any signal for “a reversal”. If going bottom fishing, investors may have to take a long, uncertain journey with Hengrui. Can you afford to wait?
