Industrials

The company pays dividends irregularly. There have only been a few years with dividend payments in the past ten years. Dividend per share (DPS) has grown yearly, but the dynamics are unclear. In the past 12 months, the dividend yield has been low and below its peers. 

605289.SS reported revenue of CNY 746mn in the last 12 months, up 9% from FY24. At the same time, the dynamics of cash flow, as measured by free cash flow (FCF), were drastically different. EPS grew 13% from FY24 to CNY -0.35. Market expects EPS to reach CNY 1.28 in FY25.

Over the last six months, the stock performance has varied, with an increase following a drop. The stock's price trend wasn't definitive when matched against its global counterparts from the same sector and industry (as depicted above). Over the past six months the stock has exceeded the performance of this peer group by 6ppts and its growth accelerated by 12ppts in the past month. This is equally valid for peers from the same country and industry. Given the stock's valuation versus its peers, its total price movement is neither favourable nor unfavourable.

The company has reported weak EBITDA margins compared to its global peers in recent years. EBITDA margin amounted to -4.4% in the last 12 months, a decline from 19.8% in FY23. 

Historically, 605289.SS has reported weak net margins compared to its global peers. Specifically, in the last 12 months, this metric equalled -5.2%, down from 13.2% in FY23. 

In the last 12 months, the return on capital employed (RoCE) declined to -2.6%, below the peers. The consensus estimate for FY24 for RoCE is 11.5%, again behind the peers. 

Another important profitability metric, return on assets (RoA), amounted to -1.8% in the last 12 months, a decrease from 4.1% in FY23. The market analysts predict that RoA will be 6.9% in FY24, more robust than its peers in this period. 

Shanghai Luoman Lighting Technologies Inc. reported a return on equity (RoE) of -3.0% in the last 12 months, down from 6.3% in FY23. The market consensus projects an RoE of 10.5% in FY24, again behind its peers. 

The ratio of return on invested capital (RoIC) to the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) has been 0.1 in the past several years. This ratio implies a weak shareholder value creation. 

The institutional, legal, and compliance risks associated with the company's country are close to minimal. In combination with rigorous business standards, shareholder rights are well protected.

605289.SS has above average trading liquidity. The average private investor can sell his common position in the stock almost immediately. Liquidity is usually quite stable and remains extremely favourable on the days with the lowest activity. The trading volume mostly stays the same even under highly turbulent market conditions. The stock has a small market capitalisation, which usually makes its trading liquidity erratic and unpredictable. 

No other major risks have been identified.

The risk of default is moderate. We note resilient historical revenue growth, low margin volatility, adequate interest coverage, and an favourable capital structure, among the positive credit factors. Among the negative credit factors, we point to weak positions in its industry, bleak profitability, negligible return on capital, and poor working capital management.

In highly turbulent market conditions, 605289.SS is highly volatile. In other words, the stock will fall substantially more than the index in times of extreme market volatility or shocking company news. Standalone, the worst-day losses (less than 1% of the time) will likely be significant. 

In normal market circumstances, 605289.SS is exceptionally volatile. Put differently, without outstanding market volatility or shocking company news, the stock's price will change quite unpredictably. The stock's losses on its worst days (less than 1-5% of the time) will range from significant to immense. We would also like to highlight the immense intraday volatility of the instrument. 

From both historical and forecast perspectives, the stock is slightly overpriced compared to similar stocks. In particular, the stock is reasonably priced on P/E, 'expensive' on EV/EBITD.
