China company Evergrande is in terrible shape. Once one of the largest companies in the world, the China real estate behemoth is now only one-tenth of its former size, and the worst is yet to come.

We’ve reported on Evergrande for months. The world’s largest issuer of China’s commercial paper was going under.

The situation has not gotten better for Evergrande over the past few months. An analysis by the American Institute for Economic Research provides some up-to-date information regarding the Evergrande crisis.

The largest real estate developer in China—and one of the largest in the world—is on the brink of bankruptcy. The problems this could create in the Chinese financial sector, and in turn in other parts of the world, are convulsing capital markets around the globe. The news is not encouraging. Evergrande has already defaulted on several interest coupons on its dollar debt, and recently the listing of its shares was suspended on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange…
…Evergrande became the largest Chinese real estate developer through turnover. It is currently engaged in about eight hundred active real estate developments, mostly in 230 secondary and tertiary Chinese cities. While it is a giant company that has been extending its business model to other economic activities, more than 97 percent of its income derives from real estate development.
Evergrande reached its peak valuation at the end of 2017. At the time, it was worth almost $51 billion, ranking it among the 350 largest companies in the world and among the 40 largest companies in China. Since then, its value has been sinking, and today it is worth just $5 billion. At today’s valuation, it is only the 2,650th-largest company in the world…
…The accumulation of debt to suppliers has caused serious problems for Evergrande. Most vendors have decided to stop supplying the company, so many real estate projects are completely paralyzed for lack of supplies. Evergrande’s ability to deliver new housing projects (crucial for the company’s survival) has been seriously compromised, as the company itself acknowledges in its latest quarterly financial report…
…Approximately 90 percent of Evergrande’s real estate developments are homes that are under construction (the other 10 percent is finished housing). According to Evergrande, the houses under development will be finished within a year, but housing sales are far below the number of properties in the company’s inventory.

The American Institute for Economic Research concludes that barring a miracle, Evergrande is very much on the path to bankruptcy. This is not a surprise nor has it been for some time.

The bigger question will be what will Evergrande’s eventual financial collapse mean to China and the rest of the world. It cannot be good.
