Warnings

ℹ Wall Street's average price target is $43.50 (from 20 analysts). Our estimate is 71% below the consensus -- consider that gap carefully.
ℹ Financial statements were converted from CNY into USD using USDCNY at 0.1495 USD per CNY.
⚠ This stock is 49% below its 52-week high, with weak or declining earnings. That combination often signals real trouble, even though the valuation below is based on other fundamentals.

Key Risks

  • Growth DCF inappropriate — terminal value assumptions dominate
  • EV/EBITDA misleading for regulated businesses where capex is mandated
  • Regulatory risk is a fat tail not visible in normal multiples
