The effect of short-term profit protection is reflected. There is no need to worry about the disturbance of the short-term epidemic, but more need to pay attention to the long-term value: this year, the company's goal has shifted, paying more attention to the profit assessment. Hainan Province is also emphasizing the price linkage between duty-free merchants. Without considering the impact of the disturbance of the short-term epidemic, the company's profit margin will be in a period of slow repair, and the market does not need to worry too much. In the long run, We pay more attention to the company's excellent management ability. At present, the online business is gradually integrated. After the unified integration of online channels of various stores, the logistics and warehousing part is also being adjusted, and the improvement of efficiency will also increase the overall gross profit margin of the company in the future; New brands are also continuously introduced. The new harbor duty-free store opened in the third quarter, which will become an important driving force to boost the company's performance growth in the future.
Profit forecast, valuation and rating: taking into account the company's performance express, we raised the EPS for 21 years to 4.91 yuan (up 1%), and considering the impact of the company's short-term epidemic disturbance and integration costs, we reduced the EPS for 22-23 years to 5.68 yuan and 7.15 yuan (down 8% respectively), corresponding to 38 / 33 / 26 times of PE in 20212023. However, as an absolute leading company of tax exemption, we continue to innovate, During the epidemic period, the layout of the line, the introduction of tax-free favorable policies for outlying islands, and the current valuation is at a low level. We are optimistic about the long-term value of the company and maintain the "buy" rating.
Risk tip: under the influence of the epidemic, the purchasing power of residents decreased and the implementation of policies was less than expected.
