利潤增長超預期;派息帶來驚喜

中教公佈 1H20 業績:受新學校並表的影響,1H20 公司學生人數同比增長 23% 至 18.2 萬人;收入同比上升 41.6%至 27.7 億人民幣。整體毛利率 57.6%,與 1H19 持平。若以相同學校基準比較,上半年毛利率為 59.8%,(+200bps),證明運營效率持續提升。在成本控制方面,1H20 總運營開支(銷售費用+行政費用)2.4 億人民幣,同比上升 20.6%,低於我們預期。開支上升幅度小於收入增長幅度,再次證明公司的運營管理能力。1H20 經調整淨利潤 4.9 億,同比增加 32%。公司同時宣佈每股派息 0.134 港元,派息率從 30%提升至 50%,高於市場預期,給市場帶來驚喜。

擴建校區帶來增量;獨立學院專設將成為新的催化劑

廣東白雲學院新校區第一期已在 2019 年 9 月投入使用,第二期將於 2021 年 9 月投入使用,一共可容納 26000 人。松田學院的擴容也在持續推進,公司已與肇慶新區政府簽訂協議,政府向公司提供 1500 畝地,建立一個可容納 30000 名學校的新校園,預計未來分階段投入使用。擴建為兩所學校未來增長提供保障。近期獨立學院轉設的問題成為行業焦點。公司旗下有三所獨立學院,公司正在與監管部門以及公辦大校積極商討轉設細節。轉設後學校將不需要向大校每年支付管理費,預計將有利提升盈利水平。

調升利潤;目標價 14.30 港元

教育部於 4 月 10 發出住宿費退費預警,我們預期公司將退還 3 個月住宿費,影響 FY20E收入 2%-3%。由於疫情期間停課,我們預期 FY20E 配套服務費收入將下降 16%。我們分別下調 FY20E/FY21E 收入 4.7%/2.6%。但調升公司 FY20E/FY21E 淨利潤 8.5%/18.1%,以反映穩健的內生增長以及低於預期的運營開支。未來催化劑包括收購兼併、今年專升本擴招、獨立學院專設。我們維持 25 倍目標市盈率,新目標價 14.30 港元,對應 25 倍 FY21E市盈率。評級由“增持”上調至“買入”。
