Investment suggestions: 1) textile and garment industry: from the perspective of fundamentals, we maintain the previous view, and the performance of the industry will still be subject to terminal demand. From the market perspective, the recent war between Russia and Ukraine will promote the rise of risk aversion. We can pay attention to the related targets of undervalued and high dividend rate in the field of textile and clothing (see the attached table for details). In terms of stock targets, we have long recommended brand targets related to sportswear with the sustained prosperity of sports tracks and the catalysis brought by the Winter Olympics, and continue to recommend Anta sports, Li Ning and Tebu International; In the field of non sportswear, it is believed that the high-end category has strong consumption toughness, and it is recommended to pay attention to the leaders of undervalued sub categories, including the leader of medium and high-end home textile Luolai Lifestyle Technology Co.Ltd(002293) , the brand of high-end sports fashion Biem.L.Fdlkk Garment Co.Ltd(002832) , Baoxiniao Holding Co.Ltd(002154) (it owns hazzys, a sports fashion brand). In terms of textile manufacturing, Shenzhou International and Huali Industrial Group Company Limited(300979) , which have strong growth sustainability and a solid position as a high-quality head manufacturer, continue to be recommended.
2) cosmetics industry: the cosmetics industry maintains the previous view. The overall environment of intensified industry competition, increased layout of international brands, differentiated consumer demand and stricter industry supervision still exists. It is believed that Chinese brands still need to make continuous innovation and breakthrough in product strength. “38” e-commerce promotion is imminent. As one of the highlights of e-commerce in the first half of the year, we look forward to its sales performance and bring a certain boost to the performance. We believe that companies with large product accumulation and strong product strength will perform more prominently. We continue to recommend Proya Cosmetics Co.Ltd(603605) and other sensitive skin care leaders Yunnan Botanee Bio-Technology Group Co.Ltd(300957) , which actively improve the product power, have strong operation ability, have formed a clear strategic layout of multiple large single product series, multiple categories and multiple brands, have high performance growth, have a solid position as subdivided leaders, actively expand new categories and effects, and actively increase brand investment to enhance influence.
Risk tip: the macroeconomic growth rate is down, and the terminal consumption is weak due to repeated epidemics or extreme weather, which affects the consumption demand of clothing, cosmetics and other products; The intensification of industry competition and the price war of foreign leading brands will have an adverse impact on China’s benchmark brands; E-commerce platform traffic growth slowed down and traffic costs increased.
