Kweichow Moutai's Potential Tax Risks Remain a Worry -- Market Talk

Dow Jones08-06

0449 GMT - Kweichow Moutai's price control measures are likely to help stabilize retail prices, but investors may still worry about potential tax risks, say Jefferies analysts in a research note. The Chinese liquor company has been reducing supply via the retail channel in the past 20 days, which has successfully stabilized the price of its major product Feitian Moutai, the analysts say. Still, worries persist over imposition of a potentially harsh consumption tax by the Chinese government which could impact the price of baijiu in general, they add. The analysts keep a buy rating, with a target price of CNY2,175.00. Shares are 0.7% lower at CNY1,399.52. (tracy.qu@wsj.com)
