Li & Fung's FVE Decreased to HKD 3.64 With Negative Moat Trend as We Transfer Coverage

We transfer coverage of Li & Fung, retaining our no-moat rating, but changing our moat trend to negative from stable. We cut our fair value estimate to HKD 3.64 from HKD 4.83 on lower projected free cash flow that is discounted at a higher rate of 8.9%, up from 8.3% previously, to reflect greater systematic risk. We believe Li & Fung is fairly valued at the current share price level. 
Our earnings forecast is well below Capital IQ market consensus by around 21% and 28% in 2017 and 2018,...
