We are positive on LK’s 4Q19E operations. Based on our data, preliminarily, LK’s store counts are likely to reach approximately 4,946 stores by the end of 2019, which include ~400 partnership or franchised stores. High growth of the number of stores is driving topline growth. At the same time, the user frequency showed improvements and discounts were less than before; and partnership stores started to make small contributions to revenue. We believe the total net revenue is likely to be higher than consensus at RMB2,170.3M ($310.1M) based on exchange rate of RMB6.9985 = USD 1. The level of discounts is not as aggressive as before.
