SEE APPENDIX I FOR IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES AND ANALYST CERTIFICATIONS Regional Company Update 21 May 2013 Lenovo The Moment of Truth Results due out Thursday. Lenovo is set to release its 4QFY3/13F and FY3/13F results on Thursday after market close. We anticipate 4QFY3/13F net profit of USD114m (EPS: USD0.011), down 46% QoQ but up 66% YoY. While the sequential decline shows a typical seasonal pattern for the March quarter, the more important focus is the YoY comparison that could be a signal of ongoing structural profitability improvement. Our net profit estimate is 6% ahead of consensus. For FY3/13F, Lenovo is on track to post a record-high profit of USD622m, up 31% YoY and 24% above its record in FY3/08. Revenue-wise, we forecast USD8.11b for 4QFY3/13F, down 15% QoQ but up 6% YoY, and USD34.2b for FY3/13F, up 15% YoY and marking a new high for Lenovo. Pre-tax profit or PTI, which is the matrix Lenovo is targeting, is likely to total USD163m in 4QFY3/13F. This implies PTI margin of 2% vs 1.4% in 4QFY3/12. Note also that Lenovo consolidated CCE’s Latin American operations into its business in 4QFY3/13. In 2011, CCE posted USD550m sales and USD11m profit. While its 2% net margin appears immaterial, it is substantially ahead of Lenovo’s Asia-Pacific (ex-China) and Latin America OPM of 0.3%. Pickup in growth momentum. We look for momentum to resume from 1QFY3/14F (June quarter) onwards. Lenovo’s revenue is likely to grow 5-10% QoQ/YoY as PC demand from China looks set to improve with the completion of the political leadership transition in March. Equally important, the global corporate PC refresh cycle will likely gather pace as Microsoft is discontinuing its technical support for XP and Office 2003 within 12 months. Admittedly, the global PC shipment will remain weak as demand for conventional PCs continues to trail tablet PCs. Since initiating coverage on Lenovo last November, we have expected global PC unit shipment to decline 5% YoY in 2013 with Lenovo outperforming the market by 8-9ppts. Separately, Lenovo is stepping up its smartphone and tablet offerings. It recently launched three new smartphone models (K900, S920 and S820), targeted at the mid-to-high-end markets. The first model uses Intel’s Z2580 Atom dual-core 1.8MHz chipset with 5.5” HD display while that latter two adopt Mediatek’s MT6589, Quad-core 1.2MHz processor with 5.0-5.3” screen size. More low-to-mid-end models will be rolled out in 2H13, using Mediatek’s highly cost-competitive MT6572 chipset. Lenovo also employs Mediatek’s MT8589 chipset for its new S6000, A3000 and A1000 tablets. For FY3/14, we estimate it will generate sales of USD5.6b from the MIDH division, up 65% YoY or 15% of group. Maintain BUY. We remain positive on Lenovo in anticipation of improving structural profitability on better economies of scale, product mix and cost control. The potential acquisition of IBM’s X-system server/networking will complement its existing networking, storage and cloud computing solutions for enterprises and create shareholder value over time. This will not only diversify revenue mix but also makes partial use of Lenovo’s untapped USD5b cash (50% of market cap), which could further enhance its already impressive 25% ROE. Maintain BUY.
