1 Equity Research Consumer Discretionary Chow Tai Fook (1929 HK) Accumulate (initiation) Target price: HK$11.70 Albert Yip, CFA SFC CE No. ADT GF Securities (Hong Kong) Brokerage Limited 29-30/F, Li Po Chun Chambers 189 Des Voeux Road Central Hong Kong Well positioned for long-term growth in China; initiate at Accumulate Initiate at Accumulate with TP of HK$11.70 We forecast EPS will grow at a CAGR of 12% in FY16-17, lower than its peers. The company should also see lower store growth of 8-9% in FY15-17 (12-14% for LF and CSS) given its much larger market share and retail network in China. That said, we believe CTF is well positioned for long-term growth as sector competition intensifies given its good balance between self-operated/licensed stores and above-peer online retail revenue. In addition, its new inventory ownership unification strategy facilitates inventory relocation between stores, which could support further development of omni-channel retailing over the long-term. We value CTF at HK$11.70/share, based on 15.6x FY16E P/E, which is the average of its 1-year forward P/E. We have a higher target valuation for CTF than for LF (9.0x) and CSS (11.6x), and believe this premium is justified given its leading market share, mostly directly-operated retail network, vertically-integrated business model and differentiated product portfolio. Well positioned for long-term growth in China 1) Changes to inventory ownership unification are a long-term positive: wholesale revenue is recognized when sales transactions are completed with retail customers at franchised stores, allowing inventory to be relocated between franchised and self-operated stores to facilitate sales transactions and further development of omni-channel retailing. CTF wants this change to be fully implemented by end-fy17. 2) Good balance between self-operated/franchised stores: At end-1h15 CTF had a 62/38 mix of self-operated and franchised stores in China. Having self-operated stores as the main distribution channel means that store quality is closely monitored and managed, while the opening of franchised stores has helped accelerate CTF s penetration into lower-tier cities. 3) Above-peer online retail revenue. 1H15 results weaker than LF CTF saw a bigger net profit decline than peers in 1H15 (- 23% vs LF s -18%) despite its better SSS (-31% vs LF s -41%) and more flexible operating cost structure. While GM saw a noticeable improvement of 5.4ppt to 31.8% driven by a 10ppt increase in the proportion of revenue from gem-set products to 28%, OP margin remained flat as the GM expansion was offset by a 5ppt increase in SG&A expenses ratio. Stock performance 20% 10% 0% -10% -20% -30% Nov-13 Feb-14 May-14 Aug-14 GM highest among peers We believe CTF s higher-than-peers GM is attributable to the following reasons. (1) A more favorable product mix: The proportion of CTF s sales attributable to gold products (which generate the lowest GM across all product categories) is lower than peers. (2) Product differentiation: For example, CTF is earning a GM of around 40% from its Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pool gold product series, which is much higher than that of general gold products. (3) A vertically-integrated business model: Unlike its peers, CTF s value chain extends further upstream to cover the procuring, cutting and polishing of rough diamonds rather than simply covering jewelry design and manufacturing (mid-stream). As a result, the GM of its diamond products (as reflected in non-gold jewelry GM) is higher than peers. In addition, its overall in-house production ratio of 50% is higher than CSS s 40% and LF s 30%. (4) A price premium: CTF is able to charge a price premium on its products relying on its leading market share and brand awareness.

2 Well positioned for long-term growth in China We believe CTF is better positioned than peers for long-term growth in China. (1) Changes to inventory ownership unification: CTF initiated inventory ownership unification in Aug Following the unification, CTF remains the owner of the inventory at franchised stores, and wholesale revenue will be recognized at the prevailing prices only when sales transactions are completed with retail customers. The purpose of this change: 1) inventory can be relocated between franchised and self-operated stores to facilitate sales transactions (currently it is difficult to relocate inventory between franchised stores and other stores due to tax issues); 2) to facilitate the development of omni-channel retailing and O2O interactions so that online customers can pick up their products from franchised stores; 3) to increase the stability of franchised stores as the price risk of gold inventory distributed to these stores will be managed through hedging carried out by CTF. The change to inventory ownership will be implemented gradually and is expected to be completed by the end of FY17. We believe this is positive for CTF s long-term development in the China market. Its impact: 1) CTF s wholesale revenue will decline by HK$4-5bn in total during FY15-17, implying a 1-2% net profit decline per year; 2) inventory balance will increase by 10-12%. (2) Above-peer online retail revenue: CTF s e-commerce retail sales value (RSV) grew 91% YoY in FY14 but represented less than 1% of its overall revenue. According to L2 s Digital IQ Index, CTF is ranked No. 1 among watch and jewelry brands in terms of digital competence in mainland China. CTF is also leading peers with its sales on Tmall. Figure 1: CTF was the No. 1 best-selling jewelry brand on Tmall and Taobao in Sep 2014 Source: Ebrun (3) Good balance between self-operated/franchised stores: At end-1h15 CTF had a 62/38 mix of self-operated and franchised stores in China. Having self-operated stores as the main distribution channel means that store quality is closely monitored and managed, while the opening of franchised stores has helped accelerate CTF s penetration into lower-tier cities. As the sector s competition is intensifying, we believe store management becoming more important. Better-than-peer store profitability CTF had 1,927 jewelry stores in China (1,201 self-operated and 726 licensed stores) as per its latest interim results. We estimate that its profit margin per store was better than peers at 11.3% (see Figure 2) mainly due to its higher proportion of sales revenue attributable to high-margin gemset products. Page 2

4 Growth outlook We forecast FY15/16/17 net profit growth of -8/12/12% on revenue growth of -7/11/9% and OP margin changes of 0.1/0.1/0.4ppt. China market to drive revenue growth We estimate FY15/16/17 revenue growth of -5/12/12% from CTF s China jewelry segment on store number growth of 9/9/8% and SSS growth of -9/7/7%. For HK, Macau and other Asian markets, we anticipate FY15/16/17 revenue growth of -13/9/6% in driven by -18.5/5/4% SSS growth and 7/1/1% store number growth. Margin expansion expected We expect CTF s GM to widen from 27.3% in FY13 to 30.1% in FY17, mainly driven by a greater proportion of high-margin gem-set jewelry in its sales mix (from 21.1% of total revenue in FY14 to 26% in FY17). Furthermore, we expect its OP margin to expand 0.1ppt YoY to 12.1% in FY15 fueled by a 3ppt GM increase which would be partly offset by a 2.7ppt increase in its SG&A expense ratio as a result of operating deleverage. Its OP margin is likely to widen by 0.1/0.4ppt YoY in FY16/17 on GM improvements and a decrease in its rental expense ratio.

We value CTF at HK$11.70/share, based on 15.6x FY16E P/E, which is the average of its 1-year forward P/E during the period that it has been trading between 11-21x 1- year forward P/E. We have a higher target valuation for CTF than for LF (9.0x) and CSS (11.6x), and we believe this premium is justified given its leading market share, vertically-integrated business model, mostly directly-operated retail network and differentiated product portfolio, which includes FOREVERMARK, Rio Tinto, Disney, Sanrio, Swarovski and Hearts On Fire.
