ENN Energy’s Operating Statistics Reaffirm Recovery Outlook for China Gas Utilities in 2024

Chokwai Lee

We think the China city gas sector is currently undervalued, but our preferred pick is ENN Energy, given its well-diversified earnings supported by its integrated energy, or IE, segment and value-added business, or VAB. Following the in-line first-quarter operating data from ENN, we keep its fair value estimate at HKD 88 per share. We believe the data supports our view of a gradual recovery for the industry and should be a positive read across for China Gas Holdings, or CGH, and China Resources Gas, or CRG, where we maintain our fair value estimates of HKD 12.50 and HKD 30.00 per share, respectively.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

China’s policies to encourage the use of cleaner energy, such as natural gas, will continue to benefit leading city gas operators such as ENN.

Bears

ENN’s profitability will be negatively affected by the potential removal of the one-off connection fees from its city gas operations.
