ENN’s 1H24 core profit was Rmb3,263m (-16.6% yoy), at 43% of our full-year estimate, below expectations. The slump in revenue from wholesale of gas and the new installation segments have wiped off other segments’ revenue growth. The new installation segment’s gross margin fell to 44.4% (-8.9ppt yoy) on lower installation fees and rising costs. Retail gas sales volume rose to 12,710m cbm (+4.5% yoy) with higher dollar margin of Rmb0.54/cbm. Maintain HOLD. Target price: HK$58.40.

ENN’s 1Q24 operational data was generally in line with expectations. 1Q24 retail gas sales came in at 7,237m cbm (+2.7% yoy). Growth should pick up in the following months as gas sales to power plants ended in 1Q23. 1Q24 dollar margin was higher by Rmb0.02 per cbm, on track to achieve 2024 guidance of Rmb0.53-0.54 per cbm. Integrated energy expansion remained robust with sales volume of 9,136m kWh (+29.4%), in line with expectations. Maintain HOLD. Target price: HK$69.21.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS Results China Merchants Bank (3968 HK/BUY/HK$34.95/Target: HK$44.00) CMB’s 1Q24 earnings were slightly below our expectations due to disappointing fee income and higher cost ratio, partly offset by strong trading gains and lower credit impairment. 1Q24 NIM performance beat our expectation with a 2bp qoq decline and we expect it to hit its bottom by 2024 if there is another round of deposit rate cuts. Besides that, asset quality remains largely stable. Maintain BUY. Target price:...

ENN reported 2023 earnings of Rmb7,586m (-4.8% yoy), slightly above our expectation. The upside surprise was due to a 3.5% revenue growth, supported by a 25.5% yoy increase in wholesale gas volume, although consolidated gross margin declined to 12.6% (-1.7ppt). Retail gas sales volume shrank to 25,144m cbm (-3.1% yoy). The absence of an LNG trading gain and recovery of new connections in 2024 are set to drag on earnings. Downgrade to HOLD. Target price: HK$69.21.

MSCI China now trades at an undemanding 12-month forward PE of 10.2x, or a 37.0% discount to Emerging Asia. This steep discount is unwarranted and we expect valuation to normalise in 2H23, backed by additional policy support. However, a significant re-rating is only possible if credit growth accelerates; hence, our index target is at 74 points for now, implying 12.0x target PE. We prefer exposure to automobiles, consumer, industrial automation and online gaming. Steep discount unwarranted. We...
ENN reported 2022 core earnings of Rmb7,964m (+11.3% yoy), in line with market expectations. Gross margin was dragged by the lacklustre new installations segment, down 0.8ppt yoy to 14.3%.

Global natural gas prices have plunged by close to 50% in the past one month subsequent to the unseasonably warm winter season in the northern hemisphere. This could translate into lower gas costs to city-gas distributors. The earlier-than-expected lifting of COVID-19 restrictions provides a clearer visibility on the demand recovery after a flattish consumption growth in 2022. We remain cautious with stiff competition expected for LNG in 2023. Maintain MARKET WEIGHT.
