Shanghai International Airport's Current Valuation Appears Stretched -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-25

0612 GMT - Shanghai International Airport's current valuation appears stretched considering its downside risks, say CCB International analysts Rong Li and Katherine Li in a note. Over a year into China's reopening after Covid, direct flights between China and the U.S. accounted for only 20% of their pre-Covid levels in the first two months of 2024, they note. SHIA's duty-free income is still struggling to reach 50%-60% of the level seen in 2019, they say. CCB lowers the stock's target to CNY34.50 from CNY38.00 as SHIA's preliminary 2023 results show a 4Q profit run-rate of only CNY450 million and retains a neutral rating. CCB reckons it would be more constructive on the stock if the international passenger mix improves or the share's valuation becomes more attractive. Shares were last at CNY36.64.(monica.gupta@wsj.com)
