Listed on Hong Kong Exchange: Quote


Royce fund manager David A. Nadel made the following comments on its position in Daphne International in the recent 2013 Annual Report to Shareholders, “A slumping share price led us to more than triple our position in Daphne International Holdings during 2013. Daphne is a Chinese footwear maker and retailer, which sells Aerosole shoes in China. Its strong management and market position gave us confidence in the company’s long-term potential, though we recognize that this investment is likely to require patience. The overall slowdown in the Chinese economy has taken its toll on Daphne’s business as lower levels of consumer spending in particular caused sales and revenues to decline.“

Managing director Ron Sayers, described the situation as "the toughest business conditions for some years." This seems to have created an opportunity to buy shares at deeply depressed levels. Deutsche Bank still has a buy rating (March 2014) even with management’s lowered earnings forecasts for the 2014 financial year.
