GSH, Guangshen Railway Co – CHINA, $20.15, 11/23/2010
By Liu-Yue (Louie) Lam, Co-Founder, CEO, Oxstone Capital Management,
One of my investment heroes is Warren Buffett. I closely analyze his investment picks and the sectors that he decides to invest in as hunting grounds for finding Oxstones. Lately, one of his favorite areas for investment is the transportation network, especially trains. That gave me an idea to look for a comparable train investment in China. Guangshen Railway Company provides passenger and freight transportation services along the heavily used Shenzhen-Guangzhou-Pingshi railway in China. The company was founded in 1996 and is based in Shenzhen, China.
This is a nice Chinese infrastructure play. If you believe in the continue China growth story, then this is a safe way to play it. With rising inflation (4.4%) in China and the continue rise in oil/energy prices, train transportation will be an efficient means of mass transportation as well as an economical way for companies to transport goods.
Guangshen has a reasonable P/E at only 11.8x and currently trading at only 81% of book value – a nice discount. GSH also has very little debt on its balance sheet. It operates a very profitable business model with profit margins at 12%. Quarterly revenues grew at 12.9% and quarterly earnings at 32%. GSH also pays a nice 2.8% dividend while you wait for the market to recognize the real value in Guangshen Railway share price. Current technical trends are positive and in its favor.
