The profitability has declined, and the cost control during the period is good: in 2021, the company’s gross profit margin was – 3.4pcts to 31.6% year-on-year. We believe that the decline in profitability is mainly affected by the rise in raw material prices and the increase in subsidies.

The whole decoration business has made great progress, and the joint venture model has promoted the full development of the large home business. In 2021, the company achieved dual brands to enter the packaged home track through “europay” and the new brand “starhomes Star home”. In 2021, the performance of the company’s packaged home orders increased by more than 90% year-on-year. We expect that the packaged business accounts for nearly 10% of the company’s overall revenue. In April 2022, the company issued an invitation to dealers across the country to establish a joint venture in the core city through the joint venture mode with europay group, which is responsible for setting up a three-dimensional drainage large home exhibition center in the city, employing the managing director inside and outside the system to form an independent team to operate, and exploring and promoting the new model of “customized decoration integration”. We believe that the company’s willingness to promote the layout of large household business in the country in the form of joint venture is a sign of European School’s confidence and desire to accelerate the promotion of large household business on the basis of several years of exploration, effective improvement of supply chain management ability, significant enhancement of informatization ability and further enhancement of the market position of core categories. It is also a sign of China’s real estate industry’s shift from increment to stock market, Forced the home furnishing industry to follow the trend under the background of big customer unit price.
The difference from the previous development mode of the whole decoration business is that the drainage direction between the joint venture large home store and the decoration company has reversed, that is, the reverse diversion from the European style whole decoration stores to the cooperative decoration enterprises. We think this shows that the company has begun to enter the second stage in the promotion of the whole decoration large home business: from seeking front-end traffic cooperation to actively controlling the front-end traffic.
We expect that from 2022 to 2023, the company’s packaged business is expected to enter the speed-up track again and become a heavy weapon for the company to seize the share of the household industry in the next stage.
The industry boom is expected to pick up, and the company’s valuation is at the bottom, maintaining the “buy” rating: we expect the company’s EPS from 2022 to 2024 to be 5.07/5.94/7.03 yuan respectively, and the current share price corresponding to PE is 24 / 20 / 17 times respectively. At present, the overall valuation of China’s home furnishing sector is at the bottom. At the same time, according to the statistics of China Index Research Institute, in the first quarter, the governments of more than 60 cities in China began to relax the real estate restrictions, which will help the prosperity of the home furnishing industry rise and improve the valuation level of the industry. As a customized head company, the company has good growth prospects. At the same time, the current valuation level is low and maintains the “buy” rating.
Risk tip: China’s real estate sales are lower than expected, and the rise in raw material prices is higher than expected.
