Tks. Looks as if they are beating to their own drums, oblivious to market sentiment. Does it look cornered??
Its business is in chemical fibre technologies. First listed in SGX 12 Mar 08, at S$ 0.80cts, now 26 cts. Merely 32.5% deeps in value. Not bad liao, as compare to other coys.
Its 1H ended Sep ds yr, saw earnings rose 19.2%, giving 7.46 cts RMB interim div.

Li Heng Chemical Fibre Technologies Limited (Li Heng)'s predecessor wasChangle Liyuan Polyamide Enterprise Co., Ltd, which was established in 2003and acquired by Li Heng in 2006. Li Heng has become a leading manufacturerof high-end nylon fibre products and has a solid sales network that covers all thetextile production hubs in China. Li Heng plans to achieve economies of scaleby enlarging its annual production capacity.
Leading position in high-end nylon fibre market. Li Heng is a large high-endnylon fibre manufacturer in China with an annual production capacity of 92,400tonnes in 2007. It achieved a stunning three-year net profit CAGR of 107.6% forFY04-07 through a combination of organic growth, increased production capacity,and the introduction of new products. The company is heading for the nextstage of growth by further expanding capacity, widening its geographical coverage,and moving up the supply chain to mitigate raw material supply risks and becomemore profitable.
Propelled by strong downstream demand. With the strong growth in textileexports and domestic consumption of garments and clothing (5-year CAGR of21.9% and 17.7% respectively for FY01-06), demand for nylon is expected to seesustained double-digit growth. China's nylon producers are working hard tomeet the strong domestic demand, which has outstripped domestic supply andhas to rely on imports. Li Heng is riding on buoyant downstream demand,leveraging on high product quality and keeping its gross margin stable at 34-35% p.a. despite rising raw material prices.

good post, the financial PR's MD quite pretty, ha ha ha..
http://www.remisiers.org/research//mb%2017%20July.pdf 2) Li Heng Chemical Fibre (DRAFT) – Initiating Coverage (Anni Kum, DID: 64321470)
Previous Day Closing price: $0.59
Recommendation: BUY
Target price: $0.88
Value is emerging for China’s largest nylon producer
We are initiating coverage on Li Heng (LHCF) with a BUY recommendation. Our DCF target
price of $0.88 is based on 14.7% WACC and 1% terminal growth. Our target price implies a
FY09 PER of 6.2x which is still at an unjustified discount to its sector peers (at 9.7x PER), given
its leading market position in China.
Natural hedge against slowdown in textiles and garment exports
Though lingering concerns of a slowdown in textile and garment exports cloud the entire
industry’s outlook, the management is upbeat about the demand for nylon. This is because they
are banking on strong domestic consumption and a diverse customer base which is more
inclined towards supplying the domestic market.
Earnings boost from capacity expansion
We are seeing topline and bottomline CAGR of 39.9% and 31.5% over FY07-10F, underpinned
by capacity growth of 53.8% to 257,000 tons by 3Q09. During this expansion stage, 18 lines of
HOY/POY/FDY and 20 DTY will be added, improving the product mix.
Maintaining competitiveness by upstream move
Construction is underway for a polyamide chips plant at its current Binhai Industrial Zone
facilities. Production may commence by 3Q09, with initial available capacity of 80,000 tons. We
estimate LHCF to be 35% self-sufficient from 3Q09 and cost savings could be significant as raw
material costs make up more than 90% of cost of sales.
Nothing to fear but fear itself
Our sensitivity analysis implies that the market has discounted LHCF at 20% WACC and
assumed 0.5% terminal growth. This is way too pessimistic considering that Li Heng is a serious
player in the premium nylon segment, and its market-leading position will ensure that it is here
to stay.

LI HENG: Visit to leading Chinese nylon producer |

 Financial PR's MD Kathy Zhang led 10 investors on investigative trip to China's textile sector.
A SUPPLY GLUT and margin erosion may be looming over the billion-dollar textile and apparel industry in China.
Nevertheless,
a group of 11 investors, including QDII funds and high net-worth
Singapore investors, embarked on a trip recently to investigate the
textile value chain in hopes of identifying winners.
Companies
they visited include makers of Xtep sportswear, Erke tennis shoes and
Dapai haversacks, as well as their supporting synthetic fiber and
fabric makers, FibreChem Technologies, Li Heng and China Taisan.
Financial
PR’s managing director Kathy Zhang led the group to textile hub Fujian
to visit the factories of domestic brands behind the fashion landscape
of China’s generation Y.
 Textile value chain of companies visited
Which companies will win over Gen-Yers as these youthful big spenders move up the ladder of economic prowess?
Will
it be imported brands? Or will domestic brand owners who started out as
sub-contract suppliers be able to close the brand status gap?
The
likely winners will be those with the technology edge, margins and
economies of scale to buffer the rising costs of operation, according
to insiders.
Riding out the industry consolidation
A
quick comparison of the textile players visited suggests the leading
synthetic fiber makers have a more lucrative business than some brand
owners.
Li
Heng, a leading producer of high-end nylon in China with a 15% market
share, has one of the highest operating margins (34%) among textile
players.

Pushing for export quality
 Chinese online mart www.smarter.com retails imported swimwear for Rmb 450 to Rmb 1,200.
Last year, China overtook the USA to become the world’s largest nylon producer with a market share of 24.8%. It grew its output 15% despite a decline of 1.7% in global nylon output to 3.8 million tons.
China is still a net nylon importer, relying on imports for high-grade nylon. It imported 223,300 tons of nylon fibre in 2007.
The
nylon produced by Li Heng is of a quality that borders on domestic and
import grade, such as that which is required for high-end delicate and
fine lingerie and undergarments, premium sportswear, including swimwear.
Imported
brands of swimwear and lingerie don’t come cheap: a swimsuit can retail
for as much as what a PRC production worker earns in a month.
By producing high-end nylon, Li Heng has maintained gross margins at about 35%.
 Investors
from QDII funds Changcheng and Zhongyin, as well as other funds such as
BOC, China Merchants, Cheetah, Fullerton, GIC, JK Capital, Marathon and
Martin Curie in Q&A with the chairman at a finished nylon yarn
storage room.
After
Kathy compared Li Heng's nylon quality with what she saw at a competing
nylon factory, she concludes that customers were willing to pay Li
Heng's asking price for the difference it made to the apparel produced.
Polyamide, a by-product of oil, comprises over 90% of Li Heng’s cost of sales.
The
company has been able to pass on rises in the cost of raw materials to
customers but is addressing the issue of rising oil prices by building
facilities to produce polyamide chips by 3Q09.
To meet demand for high-end nylon, the company is ramping up capacity 3-fold: 257,200 tons by 3Q09, up from 92,400 tons in FY07.
 Plant under construction will produce polyamide by 3Q09. Photo by Kathy Zhang.
”Huge though the capacity increase may seem, it is wholly driven by orders,” said Mr Chen.
Order
management is important, as nylon has a shelf life of only 5 months,
during which it has to be stored at the right temperature and humidity. After 5 months, it is downgraded and selling prices are adversely affected.
To
maximize utilization, the company has a policy of serving a wide
customer base and accepts not more than 60% of orders placed by each
customer.
The strategy appears to be working: utilization has exceeded 90% in the past 2 years.
Kathy noted that Li Heng’s plant is very well managed. It operated 24/7 without a need for maintenance downtime.
Stock rebounds from historic low on investors' return
 The delegate flew back to Singapore on 5 Jul, after Li Heng closed at a historical low of 49.5 cents.
Some
investor(s) must have seen that as a buying opportunity: the stock
rebounded sharply by over 20% in the week following their return to
close at 62 cents this Monday.
Deutsche Bank reiterated its buy
call on Li Heng with a target price of S$1.40 on Monday, while UOB
Kayhian initiated coverage with a buy call with a target price of 84.5
cents last Wednesday.
Deutsche Bank analyst James Tan believes
that the stock is undervalued due to concerns of lower global demand
for textiles amid rising oil prices and inflationary cost pressures.
To address cost pressures, Li Heng is looking to produce its own polyamide by 3Q09.
Meanwhile, textile players are looking forward to an increase in rebates on exported clothing from 11% to 15%, which is widely touted to materialise in the near future.

To add to ZhugeLiang's post, what i found out:
On 9 July, UOB Kayhian initiated coverage with BUY
representing 6.4x FY08PE and 5.2x FY09PE.
Amazing : at 84.5 cents, the stock would be trading at only 6.4X this year's earnings!
No wonder, Li Heng is so resilient and there's upward push on the stock.
I heard that Li Heng made a presentation to CIMB people, and they were mighty impressed.
recommendation and target price of S$0.845,zhuge_liang ( Date: 15-Jul-2008 12:30) Posted:
| Li Heng Chemical Fibre down as market weakness interrupts stock's steady recovery over past few days from record low of $0.49. Deutsche Bank, which has Buy call with $1.40 target, says share price currently undervalued due to concerns of lower global textile demand due to rising oil prices, inflationary cost pressures. But weakness not justified; "Li Heng's market leadership position and the economies of scale of its operations could give the company a competitive advantage and help it to outgrow the industry." Adds, recent news of China's plans to increase general export tax rebates to 13% from 11%, rebates on clothing meant for exports to 15% from 11% bode well for company. |

0.6 will be a resistance for Li Heng to overcome...
