New Street: BABA FY4Q21 Results - Stepping Up in Investments

What's new: Alibaba’s reported FY4Q21 top-line results were above consensus and our estimates. BABA plans to invest all of the incremental profits and additional capital in FY22 to provide support to merchants and invest in new initiatives and strategic areas such as Community Marketplaces, Taobao Deals, local consumer services, and Lazada. We lower our PT from USD300 to USD250 as investment cycle could last beyond FY22. We also see limited multiples upside due elevated competition and structural revenue mix concerns. Our PT of USD250 implies a 23.4x P/E on our FY22 estimates.
