Recommendation:
Hold




4Q15 results miss on higher credit costs

FY15 earnings were below expectations and our FY16/17 earnings have been lowered by about 8% respectively on account of higher credit cost assumptions. Positively though, its recent Career Transition Scheme (CTS) should provide savings of up to MYR200m per annum to support earnings growth in FY16. We maintain our TP of MYR5.85 pegged to a 2016 PBV of 0.9x, with a projected ROE of 8.9% for FY16. HOLD.

Recommendation:
Sell




NIM compression larger than expected; D/G to SELL

While AMMB’s 9MFY16 results were within expectations, this was on the back of ongoing net credit recoveries which may not be sustainable. Amid ongoing NIM compression and cautious expansion, earnings growth is likely to be muted and we project ROEs of just over 8%. We see little catalyst and downgrade the stock to SELL, with a lower TP of MYR4.10 (FY17 P/BV of 0.8x) vs MYR4.90 previously (CY16 P/BV of 0.9x).

FY15: Above expectations

BArmada turning around, with much focus on cost and growth. FY15 core earnings were ahead of our forecasts on higher T&I works in 4Q. FY16 will be a pedestrian year, which is to be expected. The excitement lies in FY17, as the commencement of 4 new FPSO/FSU charters will see a 2.4x jump in earnings momentum. We raise FY16/17 net profit forecasts by 61%/8% and lift our SOP-based TP to MYR1.45 (+21%) to incorporate its Malta FSU operations and cost savings from effective costs/cashflow management.

Surprise downstream purchase

We are Neutral on FGV’s latest plan to acquire a 55%-equity stake in Zhong Ling Nutril-Oil Holdings Ltd (ZL) for MYR0.98b cash. On paper, valuation appears decent at 9-12x 2013-15 PERs and 3x 2013 audited NAV. However, we believe China’s consumer market is full of challenges despite its potential. Maintain SELL and TP of MYR1.30 on 16x 2016 PER.

Outlook still challenging

While we continue to like BIMB for its strong fundamentals and high capitalization, we have taken a more cautious stance on Bank Islam’s personal financing portfolio, which currently accounts for 30% of total financing. We maintain our HOLD call but with a marginally higher SOP-based TP of MYR3.90 (+10sen).

A good year

Sunway’s FY15 results came in above our expectation but within consensus estimates. FY15 locked-in sales was MYR912m or 22% above its sales target for FY15. Despite a weak property market outlook, Sunway sets a higher sales target of MYR1.1b for FY16 (+21% YoY). We raise our FY16/17 earnings forecasts by 8%/4%. Maintain HOLD with a higher RNAV-TP of MYR3.31 (+7sen) based on an unchanged 40% discount to RNAV.

Strong operational numbers but masked by kitchen sinking

There were plenty of costs spikes, indicative of kitchen sinking exercise to ensure a ‘cleaner’ 2016 is at hand. This resulted in 4Q15 and 2015 core net profits of MYR17m and MYR279m falling short vs our MYR480m for 2015. We tweak our 2016-17 earnings forecasts by -3.7% and -3.0% respectively on management’s latest inputs and we introduce 2018 forecast. Maintain BUY with a slightly higher TP of MYR1.80 (from MYR1.75), pegged to an unchanged 1x 2016 P/BV.

Booster from Singapore Ops

The 4Q15 earnings outperformance was due to better-than-expected sales and margins contribution from Singapore. However, dividend was in line as a final DPS of 67sen brings FY15 DPS to 72sen (DPR: 96%). Into FY16, we expect weaker domestic ops on generally weaker consumer sentiment to be buffered by the Singapore ops. Maintain HOLD, with a raised DCF-TP to MYR13.00 (from MYR12.20) on rolling forward valuation.

Below expectations

Excluding the one-off FV gain and distribution paid to perpetual sukuk holders, MSGB’s FY15 core net profit of MYR338.8m was 5%/7% below our/consensus estimates. We lower our FY16/17 earnings forecasts by 15% p.a.. However, our TP is raised to MYR1.36 (+13sen) after factoring in the repurchase of MYR315m convertible bonds which has lowered the dilution impact to our MYR2.35 RNAV/sh est. (+28sen). Upgrade to HOLD.

Downstream outperformed

FY15 results exceeded our expectation by 25% largely on significant turnaround at its downstream division in 4Q15. For 2016, we forecast 40% EPS growth on higher output (+10%) and CPO ASP (+6%). We continue to like SOP for its long term growth prospects, sweetened by its property development potential arising from its strategic landbank in Miri.

Great results, but staying cautious for now

2015 earnings and dividends were above expectations due to lower-than-expected taxes and cost at the print segment, and a slight revenue outperformance. We are unsure if the cost savings in 4Q15 are sustainable. We conservatively maintain our forward earnings and dividends estimates pending an analyst briefing on 4 Mar 2016. Maintain HOLD and SOP-based TP of MYR2.40 for now.

Great end to 2015 with 7.6% dividend yield!

4Q15 and 2015 core net profit was within expectations. That said, 2015 DPS positively surprised at 10sen, delivering 7.6% yield. With the Summer Olympics and Euro Cup this year, we still expect TV adex to grow 5% YoY in 2016. We maintain our FY16 and FY17 estimates, but raise DPS estimates by 3sen p.a., thus offering attractive yields of >8% p.a.. Maintain BUY call but trim our TP premised on unchanged 1x end-FY16 P/BV as our higher DPS estimates trim our BVPS estimates.

Continues to deliver

3QFY3/16 results were within expectations. Less newsprint consumption and labour costs at the Malaysian segment greatly moderated weak adex sentiment in Greater China and Canada. We keep our earnings estimates, BUY call and MYR0.73 TP. Valuations remains very cheap at <10x PER and <5x EV/EBITDA. Note that there is further upside to its already attractive dividend yields of >6% p.a. as our DPS estimates assume only 50% DPR.

Making positive progress, one step at a time

AirAsia X’s results were better than ours and consensus expectations. 4Q15 returned to the black with a core net profit of MYR92m, reducing accumulated core losses for FY15 to MYR144m versus our MYR180m core net loss forecast. Yields surprised on the upside and load factors were strong. We revise our 2016-17 earnings forecasts by +148% and +18% respectively. Maintain HOLD with a slightly higher TP of MYR0.23 (from MYR0.21), pegged to an unchanged 1x 2017 P/BV.

Stay sideline for now

Unutilised capacity at Perodua’s manufacturing plant would cap MBM’s earnings in 1H16, but better utilisation is expected in 2H16 with the launch of the sedan model. Factoring in this, alongside lower associates’ contribution, losses in OMI alloy wheel plant, and weaker vehicle sales estimates, we cut FY16/17/18 earnings forecasts by 32%/21%/21%. HOLD with a lower TP of MYR2.05 (-31%), on unchanged 9x FY16 PER.

Recess is over, time to work

Following a strong 4Q15, management expects another busy quarter backed by a solid order backlog. 3-month average book-to-bill ratio also improved to 1.4x (12-month high). Solid orders at both the MVS and ABI divisions came from a sizeable number of clients globally. We see upside to our forecasts should order momentum sustains into 2Q16. For now, our forecasts and MYR3.80 TP (13.5x CY17 EPS) are unchanged. Exciting times are ahead with stronger earnings visibility; reiterate BUY.

Management is actively looking out for M&As in the near term. A net cash position of MYR137m (as of Dec 2015) provides such opportunity. On operations, FMCG continues to do the heavy lifting while F&B could still be a slight drag in the near term. Maintain HOLD but with a trimmed TP of MYR1.40 (-5sen) on unchanged 12.5x FY17 PER.

Weakness persists





Industrial Production (IP) shrank -0.5% YoY in Jan 2016 (Dec 2015: -11.9% YoY). Rebounds in Biomedical and Electronics were offset by declines in others led by Transport & Precision Engineering. PMI data and EDB survey point to weak 1H 2016 outlook after last year’s -5.1% contraction. But the rebound in net manufacturing investment commitments (2015: +22.7%; 2014: -15%) raises the prospect of capacity expansions and higher output as the year progresses despite the challenging global outlook.
