What You Should Do

Anhui Conch remains our sector top pick as we believe the positive outlook in its key eastern markets could support strong earnings growth in 2H13.

While for CNBM, in addition to its high exposure to the eastern markets, we also highlight its high valuation sensitivity to cement price
changes, which could likely make it outperform its peers in a cement price-driven rally.

Dec 17, 2013

Government-mandated production stoppages, a lack of new capacity and resilient growth have caused cement prices in east and south China to spike in 4Q13, similar to 4Q10 - from December 2010 to the peak in July 2011, shares of Anhui Conch (Conch), China Resources Cement (CRC) and CNBM rose 36-94%.

Compared to 4Q10, investment in cement industry capacity is 27% lower (last 12 months), absolute demand is 29% higher and YoY demand growth is just 1.9ppt lower. Pollution control has become a key government priority, and the property market is recovering, not weakening. Conch currently trades at just over 2x PBR versus more than 3x PBR in December 2010. We think this backdrop is positive for stocks in 2014.

The key catalyst for the stocks will be cement prices in the low season, starting mid-December. As long as demand remains robust, we expect prices to dip less than what is currently priced into these stocks. Accordingly, 2013E and 1Q14E earnings as well as 2014E upgrades should be positive catalysts, in our view.

Our top pick is CRC (1313 HK, OP), given higher utilisation and demand growth in south China. We also like CNBM (3323 HK, OP) and Conch (914 HK, OP). We raise our price targets for CRC and Conch to reflect better cost control and increased confidence in prices for 2014. We downgrade China Shanshui Cement (691 HK) to In-Line, given new supply additions in its key markets in 2013.

Cement price may see bullish trend - report
May 14, 2014

After the 1 May Festival in China, the cement price in China edged down by 0.17%, indicating a poor growth in the high season, reported dcement.com.

However, it is predicted that the cement demand in the 2H will be sharply boosted up by a series of growth protection policies, including the investment in railway projects, affordable housings schemes, etc. Therefore, the third quarter, the traditional low season, may see turnaround.

<Research Report>M Stanley says best stage of cement industry is over
May 2, 2014

In the latest research report, Morgan Stanley projected that Mainland property developers will be very active in clearing the stocks in 2014 and 2015, reducing the new construction and land buying plans.

A negative impact is therefore expected for the fixed investment in infrastructure.

The research house expects that the best stage for the profitability of cement industry is over, and cuts the 2014-2016 earning forecast for the sector by 7-18%.

As an adjustment, Morgan Stanley reduced the target price of ANHUI CONCH (00914.HK) from $33.4 to $25; cut CHINARES CEMENT (01313.HK) from $6 to $4.9, and both were downgraded from Overweight to Underweight.

Meanwhile, the target price of CNBM (03323.HK) was reduced from $7.7 to $7.4, with Equalweight rating; that of WESTCHINACEMENT (02233.HK) was maintained at $0.93, with rating lifted from Equalweight to Overweight; that of SINOMA (01893.HK) was lifted from $1.33 to $1.36, with Underweight rating remained.
