China Telecom (Downgrade to Underperform) 3
Harder squeeze for 4S juice Lisa Soh
We incorporate the impact of 4S in our forecasts (launch Mar 9). Handset homogeneity is increasing in
China, and we believe subscriber acquisition becomes more about pricing/marketing/execution, leading to
a more competitive environment than what we have seen to date.
Wowprime (Initiating coverage with Outperform) 4
Dishing out growth in Taiwan and China Darren Wang
We initiate coverage on Wowprime with an Outperform rating and target price of NT$600. Wowprime runs
the largest restaurant network in Taiwan with 170 stores covering 11 brands as of 2011. We like the
company's strong brand equity and horizontal integration, and expect 30% CAGR in 2012-14 as it picks up
expansion speed in both Taiwan and China.
China Resources Cement (Outperform) 5
Volume delivery remains the key focus Pelen Ji
CR Cement reported FY11 results at the end of last week, with reported profit of HK$4,179m, up 105%
YoY. The headline number was lower than consensus forecast, but in line with our forecast; however,
stripping out foreign exchange gains, the disappointment was larger than anticipated.
