Retail growth performed well, the valuation was at the bottom and maintained the “buy” rating: in view of the fact that the company’s cost investment exceeded our previous estimate, we slightly reduced the company’s EPS from 2022 to 2024 to 1.46/1.79/2.14 yuan (3.3% / 3.8% / 3.6% respectively compared with the previous forecast), and the corresponding PE was 13 / 11 / 9 times respectively. In view of the fact that the company’s current valuation level is at a historical low and China’s real estate is easing this year, Maintain the “buy” rating.
Risk tip: China’s real estate sales are lower than expected, and the rise of raw material prices is higher than expected.
