CLSA has increased its price target for SEAZEN (01030) by 13%, from HK$2.92 to HK$3.30, while maintaining an "Outperform" rating. The firm believes the upcoming spin-off of two shopping malls into a China real estate fund could be a transformative move, unlocking latent asset value, enhancing portfolio valuation, and reducing financing costs. Although CLSA has cut its profit forecasts for the company by 27.7% and 17%, it has raised the target price primarily by extending the valuation to 2026 projections. The report notes that, based on rental income, SEAZEN has become China's third-largest listed rental income company, trailing only Sun Hung Kai Properties (00016) and China Resources Land (01109). Its robust portfolio of shopping malls in lower-tier cities has become a core profit driver for the group. As weak sales lead to a contraction in the development business, the primary source of earnings is shifting to high-quality rental income.
