Still believers in its long term growth prospects

2Q16 and 1H16 results fell short due to lower-than-expected VIP win rate and VIP volume at Genting Singapore (GENS) and FFB output at Genting Plantations (GENP). Reflecting the above and its reduced shareholding in the Banten power plant, we cut earnings estimates for GENT by 15-22%. Consequently, our SOP-based TP is trimmed to MYR10.65 from MYR11.10. Trading 23% below its SOP/sh which is close to the long term average of 21% discount, we believe the downside risk is limited.

Earnings recovery continues

2Q16 and 1H16 earnings were above expectations (due to lower taxes), dividends within. Although gaming volumes were softer at Resorts World Genting (RWG) and Genting UK (GENUK), VIP win rates recovered markedly. We expect 2H16 to be better operationally due to seasonally higher gaming volume and the opening of Sky Plaza at RWG. Expecting taxes to normalise, we maintain our earnings estimates, HOLD call and MYR4.55 SOP-based TP for now.

Still a challenging 2Q16

As 2Q16 results disappointed on low output, we lower our FY16-18 EPS forecasts by -9%/-4%/-4% post revisions to our FFB output assumptions. Our revised RNAV-based TP is MYR10.18 (previously MYR10.54). GENP remains a HOLD. Even though we expect a stronger 2H16 earnings, the stock lacks catalyst to re-rate.

Recommendation:

Healthy growth but drag from start-up costs

2Q16 earnings missed our expectation; 1H16 formed 42% of our FY16E & 41% of consensus. We cut our FY16-18E EPS by 12-16% to incorporate higher start-up costs for new hospitals. We raise SOTP TP to MYR6.52 after rolling over our base year to FY17. We continue to like IHH for its strong global footprint & leadership position in the attractive premium healthcare segment, but we maintain our HOLD call, as we believe the positives are in the price. IHH trades at 54x FY17E P/E vs peers’ 33x average.

Target Price:

Recommendation:
Hold




Still uninspiring

Given Ncell’s earnings contribution only began in 2Q16, we deem Axiata’s 1H16 results as within our expectations but below consensus. Operating performance of key entities continues to be lacklustre, but is possibly priced-in to some extent (Axiata has underperformed domestic peers YTD). Maintain HOLD, with an unchanged TP of MYR5.90.

Recommendation:

Above expectations

FY6/16 core earnings beat our expectations. Following a slower FY6/16, we expect earnings to rebound strongly in FY6/17 (+57% YoY), to be driven by higher OEM sales from full-year contribution of Perodua’s Bezza which has seen remarkable response. Furthermore, a re-rating could come on the award of leather upholstery license for the aviation industry by DCA. Pecca remains as our Top BUY pick in the auto sector. We keep our earnings estimates and MYR1.95 TP (13x CY17 EPS) unchanged.

Slight shortfall due to timing

SCG’s 1H16 net profit of MYR60m was slightly behind our forecast due to slower-than-expected works recognition. This was due to timing and its huge outstanding orderbook of MYR4.9b should provide for stronger earnings ahead. We lower our 2016/17/18 net profit forecasts by 13%/ 8%/6%. Our TP is unchanged, pegged at a higher 14x 2017 PER. We are still positive on SCG’s prospects. The stock remains as our top mid-cap BUY in the construction sector.

Recommendation:

Fulfilling dividend expectation

FY16 results were in line. More importantly, YTLP came through with a 10sen DPS, thus putting to rest recent concerns on a dividend cut. While earnings outlook remains challenging, we believe YTLP should be able to sustain a 10sen DPS going forward. Maintain HOLD on a higher TP of MYR1.50 (+7%) as we reflect YTLP’s lower net debt balance.

1H16 results in line

Icon reported stronger QoQ performance on higher OSV utilisation. Our forecasts are unchanged. The OSV market is challenging but is at its cyclical trough. Icon targets to tough it out, and continues to be resilient and be ahead as the cycle turns. Its M&A prospect is a key standout, a key re-rating catalyst if crystalised. Valuations are attractive now even without the M&A angle. Our TP is based on 1x EV/replacement value.

1H16 a miss

1H16 net profit made up just 28%/25% of ours/consensus FY forecasts; the shortfall due to losses at its Canadian operations and lower margins. We cut 2016 estimate by 44% but keep 2017-18 forecasts.

A proxy to Broadcom’s growth

Inari is set to resume its double-digit earnings growth in FY6/17 (+27%), riding on Broadcom’s growth, especially in the wireless (RF) division. Post yesterday’s analyst briefing, we upped our FY16-18 net profit forecasts by 3% each to account for stable margins from better sales mix and plant utilisation. Riding on an earnings upcycle with better visibility, we believe that Inari deserves to trade at 17.5x (+1SD) CY17 EPS (from 15x). We raise our TP to MYR3.80 (+19%). Reiterate BUY.

2Q16: In line

2Q16 results were within expectations. Into 2H16, revenue momentum should remain positive on the gradual recovery in consumer sentiment. As of end-1H16, SEM has opened only 57 stores. To achieve its target of 200 stores for CY16, store openings in the 2H would have to be ramped up. We maintain our earnings forecasts, HOLD call and TP of MYR1.38.

1QFY17: Within expectations

1QFY3/17 results were within expectations. While F&B could still be a slight drag in the near term, we expect FMCG to continue to be the heavy lifter. For FMCG, recovery of the China market post its channel rationalisation plan will help fuel its positive growth momentum. We keep our earnings forecasts and HOLD call with an unchanged TP of MYR1.95 (14.8x CY17 PER; mean).

4QFY16 earnings in line

4QFY6/16 results and first interim net DPS of 2.5sen were within expectations. The doubling in YoY earnings were mainly lifted by new outlets’ contribution and stronger sales volume. We revise our FY17/18 net profit forecasts by +9%/+7% and raise our TP by 20sen/9% to MYR2.50 (pegged to unchanged 11x FY17 PER).

No surprises

After deducting the MYR18.4m distribution to perpetual sukuk holders, 1H16 net profit of MYR165m (-13% YoY) was within our expectations but below consensus full-year estimates. 7M16 sales were slightly below our and MSGB’s targets for 2016. Over the short term, management’s focus will remain on affordable housing and it has retained its MYR2.3b sales target for the year. We maintain our earnings forecasts but raise RNAV-TP to MYR1.47 (+11sen/+8%) on revisions in land price assumptions. HOLD.

Buy




Expect a much stronger 2H16

As expected, MBM’s 2016 will be a tale of two halves whereby 2H16 would be significantly stronger HoH, driven by the contribution of Perodua Bezza at three levels: (i) stronger motor trading sales, (ii) rebound in auto parts manufacturing and (iii) better associates’ contribution mainly from 22.6%-owned Perodua. We retain our earnings forecasts pending a briefing today. Our MYR2.70 TP (9x FY17 PER) is unchanged for now. Maintain BUY on MBM for an exposure to Perodua.

Outside Malaysia:

U.S: Orders for capital goods rose for a second month in July, the first back-to-back advance since early 2015 and a sign companies are becoming more willing to boost spending. Orders for non-military equipment excluding aircraft rose 1.6% (forecast was for 0.2% gain), most since January, after a 0.5% increase. Bookings for all durable goods jumped 4.4% (forecast was for 3.4% gain). Inventories of durable goods rose 0.3%, most since December. (Source: Bloomberg)

Germany: Ifo confidence falls as businesses fear fewer orders. German business sentiment unexpectedly declined the most in more than four years in August in a sign that companies took some time to weigh the consequences of Britain’s decision to quit the European Union. The Munich-based Ifo institute’s business climate index fell to 106.2 in August from 108.3 in July. That’s the biggest drop since May 2012 and the lowest reading since February. (Source: Bloomberg)

U.K: Consumer confidence rose the most in more than three years this month as the initial shock from Britain’s decision to leave the European Union faded. An index of sentiment by YouGov and the Centre for Economics and Business Research jumped to 109.8 from 106.6 in July, which was a three-year low. The gauge is still below the level it was a year ago. While the Brexit vote initially knocked sentiment, it’s not yet clear how this might ripple into economic activity. (Source: Bloomberg)

Japan: CPI falls for fifth month in July, increasing pressure on Kuroda, and underscoring the central bank’s struggle to spur inflation to its 2% target. The figures are the last reading on this key measure before Governor Haruhiko Kuroda and his board considers a possible policy revamp at their next meeting on Sept. 20-21. Consumer prices excluding fresh food, the Bank of Japan’s core gauge, dropped 0.5% YoY in July (estimate -0.4% YoY). Consumer prices overall slipped 0.4% YoY (estimate -0.4% YoY). Consumer prices excluding food and energy rose 0.3% YoY (estimate +0.4% YoY). (Source: Bloomberg)
