Core Insights - The valuation logic and IPO pricing of Chinese concept stocks are focal points for issuers, investors, and underwriters, impacting both the success of IPO financing and post-listing stock performance [1] Valuation Models and Application Scenarios - **PE (Price-to-Earnings) Model**: Suitable for traditional industries with stable earnings, such as consumer, manufacturing, and education sectors. Adjustments to standard PE multiples should consider growth potential, industry position, and earnings quality [3] - **PS (Price-to-Sales) Model**: More applicable for high-growth tech companies that are not yet profitable. Evaluation should focus on the specific segment's PS levels and metrics like user scale, revenue growth, and gross margin [4] - **DCF (Discounted Cash Flow) Model**: Best for mature business models with predictable cash flows, such as infrastructure and utility companies. Key factors include setting appropriate discount rates and growth assumptions based on macroeconomic and industry trends in China [5] Strategies for Enhancing IPO Value Realization - **Integration of Valuation Logic and Business Narrative**: Emphasizing core competencies during roadshows can enhance the credibility of valuation models. For instance, tech companies should highlight technological barriers and market penetration, while consumer firms should focus on brand value and supply chain efficiency [7] - **Full-Cycle Performance Management**: Pre-IPO roadshows should build consensus by clearly communicating business certainty and growth logic to attract strategic investors. Post-IPO, transparent information disclosure and regular communication can strengthen trust in the company's strategy and execution [8] - **Flexibility in Responding to Market Fluctuations**: Companies should be prepared to adjust their strategies in response to valuation pressures, such as initiating buybacks during undervaluation or pursuing refinancing or acquisitions when market sentiment improves [9]
