{I-bank focus}E-House seen to expand distribution business

[ET Net News Agency, 18 September 2020] On September 16, E-House (China) Enterprise
(02048) and Alibaba (09988) announced to establish a housing platform on Tmall, an
important step of their collaboration.
They will roll out an "Estate Transaction Cooperation (ETC)" mechanism for the brokers
and agents on their platform, and E-House also announced to lower the primary distribution
(Fangyou) take rate to only 3% from 10-15% level now.
UBS Global Research talked to E-House CFO, and the research house thinks E-House will
expand its distribution business with the support from Alibaba, but at the expense of
margins.
This leads to some downside risks of UBS's near-term earnings estimates. Yet UBS remains
"buy" on E-House as it thinks E-House's GTV (gross transaction value) growth potential is
stronger with healthier cash flows. There may be long term gains in profitability if
Fangyou (E-House's brand) grows larger to have pricing power.
UBS's target price for E-House stays at HK$11.8. (KL)
