美团点评-W(3690.HK)：规模效应渐成，盈利潜力初现，上调至“买入”评级
机构：国金证券
评级：买入
规模增长放缓背景下转向利润考量。2Q19美团首次转亏为盈，源于
1）成本端骑手费用受益于二季度天气良好，补贴降低，且规模优势下配送效率提升；
2)新业务大幅减亏；
3）二季度销售、管理、研发费用率降至近三年最低值。整体经营效率提升的背后是总交易规模增速的进一步放缓。我们认为美团完成本地生活服务综合平台的基础搭建后，开始加速商业化变现，由规模增长转向利润考量。
到家业务：防御性战略下规模优势渐成。美团以防御性战略避开饿了么在三四线城市的直面竞争，且通过寻求规模优势，不断提升配送效率，盈利改善好于预期。目前来看，阿里携饿了么+口碑对美团正面狙击的效果有限，且根据国金最新的跟踪数据，7-8月补贴比例开始回落。美团初战告捷，但同时我们也认为未来在外卖业务盈利持续改善的同时，美团依然会重回三四线，因为来自三四线的外卖需求对提升整体规模具有着非常重要的意义。
到店业务：交叉导流下业务不断延伸，变现能力加速。平台导流优势下，美团到店核心业务正以低成本的方式不断扩张，利润中心继续巩固。此外，结合平台优势，美团一方面加强营销内容的输出，另一方面本地业务延伸至健身、医美、生活服务等，变现能力加速。
创新业务：减亏目标下多以轻模式探索。短期以减亏为主要目标，多以轻模式推广，重投入的业务则有所缩窄。以出行为例，打车聚合模式目前已推广至42个城市，且从国金跟踪的MAU数据来看，已快速上升至滴滴打车的1/3。而重投入的共享单车则降低投放量，提高单次收费积极减亏。
估值与投资建议
基于公司最新指引以及二季度数据好于预期，我们调整了19-21年的营收预测以及费用率假设，19-21年EPS分别由-2.16/-2.42/-3.11元上调至-0.35/-0.01/0.33元。采用DCF方法估值（WACC：11.6%/永续增长率：1%），12个月目标价升至港币85.49元，投资评级由“中性”上调至“买入”。
风险提示
1）商户产品质量和服务口碑的波动；2）新业务拓展不达预期影响估值；3）限售股解禁风险。
