🟡 HOLD — Hold; cheap valuation and strong balance sheet offset stagnation, but the dividend is not sustainable at current levels.

China Resources Beer is China's largest beer producer, known for its flagship brand Snow, and operates a large-scale production and distribution business model in the domestic market. China Resources Beer shows solid financial health (net cash, ND/EBITDA -1.55) and attractive valuation (forward P/E 9.21, FCF yield 12.52%), but growth is weak (revenue +1.2%, earnings -10.7%) and the 119.5% payout compromises dividend sustainability.
