Investment strategy:
① aviation: in 22 years, the aviation company is expected to achieve single month or quarterly profit and loss balance, and pay attention to the nodes with upward demand. During the "14th five year plan" period, the growth rate of aircraft fleet size in the aviation industry is expected to be less than 6%, and the compound growth rate of demand in the same period is 5.9%. Civil aviation will usher in the improvement of supply and demand structure in the medium term; If the international line is liberalized at the end of the year 22, the daily utilization rate of aircraft will be effectively improved and the turnover efficiency will be greatly improved. At that time, the profitability of the airline company will have great room for improvement. The market-oriented reform of air fares has continued to deepen, the production capacity of first tier airports has expanded, the profit structure of civil aviation has been optimized, and the volume and price of high-quality routes have increased simultaneously, opening up room for single machine profits. Private airlines expanded significantly during the epidemic period. Through fine operation, it is expected to convert the fleet size and time resources into operating performance when the travel demand returns to normal. At the current time, we mainly recommend Spring Airlines Co.Ltd(601021) and Juneyao Airlines Co.Ltd(603885) . At the same time, we are also optimistic about the high performance elasticity of the three airlines in the recovery cycle.
② tax exemption: the growth rate is expected to be lowered in an all-round way, the pessimism is fully released, and the opportunity to exceed the expectation of the tax exemption sector in 22 years is sought. The epidemic situation promotes the restructuring of the tax-free industry, and the channel bargaining power is highly related to the flow and toughness; Under the guidance of scale, the absolute value of revenue and profit is more important than the net interest rate for duty-free businesses in Hainan. In the future, it can be seen that the category structure will shift from incense and chemical to high-quality products with higher customer unit price; The current passive price war in the outlying island duty-free market helps to improve the global price competitiveness of Hainan duty-free. We are optimistic that Hainan duty-free will still maintain a high growth after the recovery of international traffic. We focus on Meilan Airport, which has the resonance between production capacity and demand cycle.
③ Hotels: the medium and high-end are upgraded into the second half, and the products produced by differentiation are purchased α。 The epidemic situation has accelerated the clearance of industries, and the chain rate has increased significantly (26 → 31%), but there is still room compared with 70% in the United States; During the epidemic period, the wine management group expanded against the trend and concentrated its share to the head, which helps to standardize the supply of the industry; The head company upgraded to medium and high-end, optimized the existing product structure, improved the overall profitability, overweight light assets and weakened the cyclical fluctuation.
In the post epidemic period, the hotel industry is expected to open the revenue upward cycle driven by house prices under the new pattern: we are optimistic about the performance release elasticity of Shanghai Jin Jiang International Hotels Co.Ltd(600754) with the highest proportion of medium and high-end brands after brand integration, and recommend Huazhu group, a private wine management leader with excellent operation ability. At the same time, we are optimistic about the brand power of Zhejiang Ssaw Boutique Hotels Co.Ltd(301073) in the medium and high-end hotel market and the possibility of leapfrog development through extension M & A in the future.
Risk tip: the sharp decline in macroeconomic growth and the repeated epidemic in a large area have seriously affected travel demand and the safety operation risk of the aviation industry.
