Profit forecast and investment rating: the company is the first brand of men's wear in China. Due to the large proportion of offline channels, the performance has been affected to some extent since the epidemic. It has not fully recovered in 21 years and the performance fluctuated in 22q1. Although the short-term performance fluctuates due to the impact of the epidemic, as a cost-effective national brand, in the long run, the performance is expected to continue to grow steadily due to the improvement of industry concentration. It is proposed to pay 5.1 yuan (including tax) in cash in 21 years, with a cash dividend ratio of 88% and a dividend rate of 10.3%. The high dividend policy is expected to be maintained. Considering the impact of the epidemic, we expect that the net profit attributable to the parent company in 22-24 years will increase by 8% / 11% / 11% year-on-year respectively, and the EPS will be 0.62/0.69/0.76 yuan / share, corresponding to pe8 / 7 / 7X, and the "buy" rating will be given for the first time.
Risk tips: the epidemic situation worsens, the economy is weak, and the development of new brands is less than expected.
