Beijing Enterprises Water Revising up PT, EPS on acquisition and stronger project pipeline Overweight 0371.HK, 371 HK Price: HK$2.85 Price Target: HK$3.30 Previous: HK$3.00 We re raising BEW s PT and EPS by % and 1-5%, respectively, to factor in its latest acquisition and stronger project pipeline ahead. We reiterate our OW on the stock ahead of likely announcements of additional projects and new government policies on environmental protection. Acquisition of wastewater treatment co: Beijing Enterprises Water has agreed to pay RMB270MM for a 60% stake in BCEG Environment Development, a wastewater treatment company under Beijing SASAC. BCEG has 26 sewage treatment plants with a total daily capacity of 937,500 tons, of which 677,500 tons are in operation. It also has a project to construct 1MM tons/day of reclaimed water treatment capacity. BCEG has a presence in Beijing, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Value-accretive acquisition: According to BCEG's total NAV of RMB315MM as at Dec 20, the purchase price implies a P/B multiple of 1.4x, which is lower than BEW s P/B of 2.3x. We expect the deal to close in 4Q and the earnings contribution to start in Jan 2014. Achieved 1.8MM tons of new capacity YTD: With this latest acquisition, BEW would have achieved 90% of its 2MM tons of new treatment capacity for 20. We believe BEW will likely surpass its own growth guidance this year. We have now assumed stronger capacity growth for the company, assuming 2.3MM tons for 20 (up % from previous estimates).

Key risks Potential equity placement may dilute EPS; higher interest rates would lower earnings; low utilization rates of projects would lower the operation revenue; delay in payments from customers would result in higher accounts receivable and working capital issues; less supportive government policies for the water sector would result in few investment opportunities for the company.

PT revision We have lifted BEW s PT by % from HK$3.0 to HK$3.3 after factoring in a higher growth outlook for 2014 onwards and lifted FYE-15E EPS by 1-5% given the strong pipeline of water projects recently secured by the company. We value BEW using a sum-of-the-parts valuation, based on a P/E multiple of 7x (construction contractors average) to derive the valuation of the build-transfer segment and a DCF with a WACC of 8.2% and a terminal growth rate of 2.0% to value the remaining water segment. Our HK$3.3 price target represents 16% upside potential from the current price and implies a FY14 P/E of 18.8x, vs the historical average of 18x.
