Poly Property Development (保利物业 发展) Pre-IPO - Updates from PHIP and thoughts on valuation

Poly Property Development (POLY HK) is an SOE-owned property management service provider operating in China. Updated financials from new filing shows that the company has sustained its growth going into 2019 with margins being largely stable.

POLY is still reliant on its parent company, Poly Developer and Holdings (PDH). As of 1H FY2019, it derived about 80% of revenue from PDH but this is lower compared to a year ago which was just under 90% in FY2018, implying efforts to diversify revenue.

Based on our peer comparison of operating metrics, we think that should be valued close COPH due to their similarity in size, fees, and having an SOE developer support, which implies a valuation of mid 20x FY2020E P/E.

Beyond that, sentiment of Hong Kong-listed China property management services has been good as evidenced from a 1x gain in share price over the past one year.
