Company Report

COLI's Long-Run Sales Improvement to Drive a Progressive Margin Recovery

As housing demand cools and credit growth slows, we believe the leverage-driven strong growth for China’s real estate developers is behind us. That said, we think large developers such as China Overseas Land & Investment, or COLI, will fare well as the industry consolidates, with smaller peers facing increasing liquidity constraints and slumping sales volume. During market downturns, COLI has been one of the few developers to achieve market share growth, through focusing on landbank quality upgrades and opportunistic acquisitions.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

COLI’s focus on wealthy cities in China could lead to stronger sales growth as positive homebuying sentiment and policy tailwinds lift housing demand.

Bears

A more pronounced economic slowdown with a declining population in China may further limit COLI’s long-run sales prospect.
