Industry perspective update:
Home furnishing: from the recent frequent occurrence of stability maintenance policies related to real estate in many places, the real estate industry has gradually moved from a mild regulatory attitude to the substantive implementation stage of relevant policies, and the policy bottom has been proved. In this context, the overall household demand is also expected to usher in a marginal reversal, and when the valuations of the sector and mainstream stocks have fallen to a low level, the sustainability of the overall valuation repair of the sector is still worth looking forward to. From the perspective of flexible strategy, we continue to focus on Suofeiya Home Collection Co.Ltd(002572) . In addition to the valuation repair caused by the expected improvement of the industry, the company is showing positive changes in strategy, tactics and terminal implementation. Its fundamentals are also improving. The performance growth is expected to return to the right track, and the valuation has a large space for upward repair. From the perspective of long-term sound strategy, continue to focus on recommending European style and family care. In addition, it is suggested to actively pay attention to the investment opportunities brought by the export profit elasticity of software home furnishing enterprises in the first half of 22 years.
New tobacco: in terms of atomization sector, smalls released a performance forecast this week. It is expected that the adjusted net profit in 2021 will be 5.18 ~ 5.71 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of + 33.0% ~ 46.6%. Considering the frequent regulatory policies in China in the fourth quarter, short-term brands and channels need time to adjust, and the orders in the Chinese market have a slight impact, the overall performance is basically in line with expectations. At the beginning of the week, the company officially released a new generation of atomization solution, and the new technology has been comprehensively improved in the dimensions of taste reduction, harm reduction and leak proof liquid (see the text for details). We believe that this will not only improve the company’s market share outside China, but also further maintain its bargaining power through technical iteration, and further highlight the long-term value of the company. In terms of HNB sector, China’s HNB industry as a whole is still expected to develop well in the future, and is still in the policy waiting period.
