Company Report

Tsingtao Brewery Earnings: Volume Growth Trailed Expectations: Cutting Fair Value by 6% to HKD 73

Narrow-moat Tsingtao Brewery’s second-quarter results trailed our revenue and net profit estimates, primarily due to volume headwinds. On a positive note, gross profit per ton beat our expectations and grew 6% year on year, driven by lower input costs. Hence, net income only missed our estimates by 5% despite the 10% miss in revenue. We left our 2024 net income projection largely unchanged as volume weakness was offset by a better margin. However, we reduce 2025-28 earnings projections by 3%-4% due to lower volume growth assumptions.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Tsingtao Brewery’s dominant market position and distribution strength in Shandong allow the company to maneuver on product mix.

Bears

Tsingtao lacks competitive international brands in its portfolio, which puts the company at a disadvantaged position against China Resources Beer, Budweiser APAC, and Chongqing Brewery in the premium segment.

Company Profile

With over 100 years of history, Tsingtao Brewery has become one of the leading brewers in China with its namesake Tsingtao brand. The company has a dominant position in its core market, Shandong province, which contributed close to 60% of its revenue and net profit in 2023. Unlike other major brewers, Tsingtao Brewery’s brand umbrellas consist entirely of domestic brands. The Tsingtao brand has a mid-range to high-end market positioning and contributed over half of its volume whereas the mass market Laoshan brand targets the mainstream segment, with a declining volume mix as the company sought to premiumize its portfolio.
