Brighter spark in FY17

With OMS having completed its restructuring and refinancing of its loan, it can focus on ramping up its remaining 10 furnaces which it targets for full-production by April 2017. Construction works for the Pan Borneo Sarawak Highway have also begun and we do expect an acceleration of works recognition from 2H17 onwards. CMS’ construction materials supply business remains a beneficiary of the Pan Borneo construction. Maintain BUY with an unchanged SOP-based TP of MYR4.20.

SECTOR RESEARCH






Finally…an uptick in loan growth
by Desmond Ch'ng


Sector Note





The pick-up in Oct 2016’s industry loan growth to 4.5% YoY is a reprieve from the downtrend since Aug 2015. Annualized loan growth of 4% in Oct 2016 is still lagging our 2016 forecast of 5.3% but recent guidance from the larger banks points to a still healthy corporate loan pipeline and our forecast is maintained. Our industry loan growth forecast for 2017 is nevertheless trimmed to 4.7% from 5.3%. We maintain our BUY calls on BIMB, AFG and HL Bank.

NEWS


Outside Malaysia:

U.S: Manufacturing in November expands at best pace in five months, indicating American producers are finding more relief in resilient domestic demand. The Institute for Supply Management’s index increased to 53.2 from 51.9 a month earlier, the Tempe, Arizona-based group’s report showed. The group’s production gauge climbed to an almost two-year high, propelling the overall measure higher for a third month as manufacturers continued to rebound from a late-summer swoon. The figures also showed factories waited longer for materials to be delivered, a sign of strengthening demand. (Source: Bloomberg)

E.U: Euro-area industrial output expanded at its strongest pace in almost three years in November as a decline in the single currency and improved business conditions helped counter geopolitical uncertainties. A Purchasing Managers’ Index for manufacturing rose to 53.7 from 53.5 in October, IHS Markit said. That’s the strongest reading since January 2014, with expansions in the Netherlands, Austria, Spain and Germany leading the way. (Source: Bloomberg)

E.U: Euro-area unemployment unexpectedly declined in October to the lowest level in more than seven years, signaling that companies are confident in the region’s slow but steady recovery. The joblessness fell to 9.8% from a revised 9.9% in September, the European Union’s statistics office said. That’s the lowest since July 2009. (Source: Bloomberg)

U.K: House price resumed their gains in November as demand strengthened, Nationwide Building Society said. Prices increased 0.1% on the month and 4.4% from a year earlier, Nationwide said. Tight supply conditions are likely to support prices even if the economy deteriorates, it said. The U.K. has performed better than expected since voting to leave the European Union in June. Mortgage approvals rose to a seven-month high in October and consumer credit surged, the Bank of England said earlier this week. (Source: Bloomberg)

China: Official factory gauge matched a post-2012 high as a credit-fueled recovery of smokestack industries gained momentum and signaled a pickup in inflation expectations. Manufacturing purchasing manager’s index rose to 51.7 in November. Non-manufacturing PMI climbed to 54.7 from 54 in October; numbers above 50 indicate improving conditions. Steel industry PMI increased to 51.0 from 50.7. (Source: Bloomberg)





Other News:

KLK: New offer unprecedented opportunity for shareholders. The company has appealed directly to the shareholders of MP Evans Group plc to accept its increased offer of GBP7.40 (MYR41.15) per share “as soon as reasonably practicable” after the UK company rejected the offer, in order to take advantage of the certainty of receiving very substantially more in cash than the price that MP Evans shares have ever closed before the commencement of the offer period. KLK called MP Evans’ valuation, announced to London’s Alternative Investment Market on Monday, “unsubstantiated by relevant market data and current operating conditions.” According to MP Evans, Khong & Jaafar valued the group’s land assets at USD665mil (MYR2.97b), which together with its other assets implied an equity value of GBP10.82 per share, 46% higher than KLK’s sweetened offer of GBP7.40 per share.

AirAsia: Subscription agreement with Tune Live turns unconditional. The company’s MYR1b capital injection from its founders Datuk Kamarudin Meranun and Tan Sri Tony Fernandes through Tune Live Sdn Bhd is now unconditional after receiving Bank Negara’s approval. This is pursuant to Tune Live receiving its approval from the central bank for its partial offshore funding. According to the company, the funding relates to the proposed issuance and allotment of 559m new ordinary shares in AirAsia at MYR1.80 each. To recap, AirAsia entered into a conditional subscription agreement with Tune Live on April 1 for the proposed share issuance. (Source: The Edge Financial Daily)

YTL Hospitality REIT: Fixes placement issue price at MYR1.06. The company has fixed its private placement issue price at MYR1.06 per placement unit, being a discount of 9.25% to the five-day volume weighted average market price of the units in YTL Hospitality REIT up to and including Nov 30, 2016 of MYR 1.168. This will raise MYR402.8m through the placement of 380m placement units, and the proceeds will be utilized to repay its borrowings and reduce its gearing level. (Source: The Edge Financial Daily)
