On June 29, NetEase rose 3.06% overnight, trading at $127.5/share, with turnover of $574,300.
On the news front, NetEase is set to officially convert to dual primary listing status on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on June 30, significantly earlier than market expectations. Multiple international investment banks issued bullish calls in response. Morgan Stanley reaffirmed its Overweight rating with a $158 target price, expecting NetEase H-shares to be included in Stock Connect within one to two months, triggering a valuation re-rating. Goldman Sachs raised its target price to HK$264 and reaffirmed its Buy rating. Bank of America maintained its Buy rating with a $172 US target price, based on 15x forward P/E plus $19 billion net cash. Institutions broadly view the dual primary listing as clearing the key institutional barrier for Stock Connect inclusion, which would channel mainland capital inflows into the stock. Additionally, the upcoming launch of new game Sea of Remnants PC version on July 9 is cited as a near-term catalyst.
