Phoenix Tree (Danke) IPO - Far from being ready for listing

Phoenix Tree (Danke) is looking to raise up to US$175m in its US IPO. Danke is a co-living accommodation provider. According to iResearch, Danke is now one of the largest co-living platforms in China. As of Sep 2019, the company had operations in 13 cities in China with 406,746 apartment units.

Danke only began operations in 2015 but it has scaled very fast. Over FY17-9M19, the number of apartments being run by the company have increased by 7.8x while its revenue too increased by 7.6x.

In my previous note, Phoenix Tree (Danke) Pre-IPO - Another WeWork - Nothing Is Improving Apart from Revenue, I covered the company’s background and past performance.

In this note, I’ll run the deal through our ECM framework and comment on valuations.
