Signs of reversal of the epidemic began to appear, and then shenyuantong was rated as “buy”

The epidemic only affects the rhythm of the release of express demand, and does not change the medium and long-term trend of the industry pattern to be better and the volume and price rise together. Since 2021q4, the e-commerce express industry has switched to a new stage of high-quality development with high revenue growth and low capital expenditure growth. Yuantong has also entered a dividend period of simultaneous rise in volume and price and rapid release of performance. Since March, the containment of the epidemic in core cities has had a short-term impact on the business volume of the industry and the company, and the performance of Yuantong’s share price has also been adjusted. However, from the high-quality development trend of the whole year, the profit elasticity of price contribution is much greater than the impact of business volume change. As Shanghai announced that the social aspects of some regions were cleared and the inflection point of the epidemic began to appear, the industry and enterprises are expected to benefit from the rapid rebound in demand after the closure. Under the support of continuous improvement in the pattern of investment and cash flow, enterprises are optimistic about the continuous improvement of the profitability of the industry.
