Key investment points
The hotel industry has entered the stage of steady increase in volume and price, with franchise chain and product upgrading as the main melody. China's hotel industry has developed for more than 40 years, experienced two upgrading waves, and its scale has expanded steadily. From 2016 to 2019, the CAGR of hotel / room volume in China was 5.4% / 7.7% respectively, with a stable growth. According to Euromonitor, In 2020, the market scale of China's hotel industry will be 275.9 billion yuan (yoy-45.8%), which is expected to reach 105.18 billion yuan by 2026 (CAGR is 25% from 2020 to 2026). Low barriers to entry lead to single hotels occupying the main body, and the chain rate is only 31% at the end of 2020. Compared with the mature markets in Europe and America, Chinese chain brand hotels have broad space. From the perspective of market structure, the proportion of economy / mid-range / high-end hotels in China will be 79% / 16% / 5% respectively in 2020, compared with the United States (20% / 41% / 39%), product upgrading and midrange capacity expansion are still the main trends.
The epidemic situation bottomed out, the supply was cleared, and the leader took advantage of the situation to accelerate the chain expansion. The end of 2019 is the bottom of the last cycle. The impact of the epidemic has led to repeated friction in the industry at the bottom. In 2020, the hotel industry will have a net decrease of 59000. The three chain leaders of Jinjiang / Huazhu / BTS took advantage of the trend to accelerate the expansion, and the monopoly pattern of chain hotels became clearer, In 2020, the CR3 of the chain hotel market will reach 43% (YoY + 2.5pct). In the medium term, the risk of uncertainty brought by the epidemic to the industry still exists, but the certainty of improving the leading competition pattern is becoming stronger and stronger. In the long term, the three oligarchs will double the market space of the chain hotel, enjoy the improvement of market share and growth value, and the valuation center will continue to move upward.
