MYR2.55

Target Price:

MYR2.98

Recommendation:

Buy

Is Not Another Ridiculous Idea

Years of strong working relationship with its key clients now qualifies Inari as a trusted insourced partner. Inari remains committal in capex alongside the required ramp up by its clients. As such, Inari's business model has been refined, focusing on higher production value add which has significantly improved its margins. Post briefing, we raise our FY18-20 net profit forecasts by 5%-15% on margin expansion to FY17's level. Our TP is lifted to MYR2.98 (+10%), pegged on unchanged 20x CY18 EPS.

Recommendation:

Dividend makes a comeback

Dividend was once again declared after obtaining a stay against paying the tax penalty. That said, we trim our DPS estimates by 1.5sen p.a. on lower DPRs. Our new DCF-based TP is MYR2.15 vs. MYR2.24 previously (WACC: 8.4% vs. 8.2% previously). MAG remains a tactical BUY with valuation having fully priced in the tax penalty (share price has fallen by 39sen or more than the tax penalty). If the final tax penalty is nil or markedly less, eventual upside ought to be closer to our estimated 26%.

Recommendation:

Hurt by higher depreciation charges

Results disappointed as GENP unexpectedly early adopted MFRS 116 accounting standard which raised its depreciation charges. We lower our earnings forecasts to factor this, but mitigated by maiden contribution from Genting Premium Outlet (GPO). GENP remains a HOLD with a lower TP of MYR10.54 (-6%) on unchanged 26x 2017 PER, its 5-year mean.

Recommendation:

A slow start to FY18

1QFY3/18 core earnings came in below our estimates due to weaker-than-expected contributions from plantations, industries and property. We lower our net profit forecasts for FY18-20 by 4%-8% after adjusting for lower margins for the three divisions. Our SOP-based TP is lowered to MYR3.80 (-10sen). We remain positive on IJM for its long-term growth prospects especially its investments in MCKIP and Kuantan Port.

Recommendation:

Boosted by asset sales

UEMS' 1H17 net profit of MYR156m (+>100% YoY) was in line but property sales fell short at MYR392m (just 33% of its 2017 sales target of MYR1.2b [-14% YoY]) due to the lack of new launches in 1H17. Sales should however pick up in the 2H with new pipeline launches. We lower our FY17-19 net profit forecasts by -1% to -20% but raise TP to MYR1.28 (+15%) on a revised 0.45x P/RNAV (from 0.4x). Reiterate HOLD.

Tambun Indah (TI)'s 1H17 net profit of MYR44.1m (-16% YoY) beat our forecast but in line with consensus. 1H17 locked-in sales of MYR84m were on track.

We raise our FY17-19 net profit forecasts by 2-9% and RNAV-TP to MYR1.40 (+1sen) on an unchanged 0.45x P/RNAV. Maintain HOLD.

Drag from new hospitals

Core earnings in 2Q17 fell 54% YoY due to start-up costs from the opening of two new hospitals in Mar 2017, particularly the Gleneagles HK. 1H17 missed our and consensus estimates, at 33% of our FY17E and 30% of consensus. Accordingly, we cut our FY17-19E EPS by 18-31% to account for higher start-up costs, mainly from higher depreciation. Our SOTP TP is reduced 1% to MYR6.08. Growth from new hospitals in HK and Turkey now ramping up, and 3 new China hospitals over the next 2 yrs. Maintain HOLD.

MY: Index of Leading Indicator, June 17

Signals slower growth post-1H2017
by Suhaimi Ilias

Economics Research

Index of leading economic indicators moderated to +0.6% YoY in June 2017 (May 2017: +1.9% YoY), pointing to potentially slower real GDP growth in 3Q 2017 after the +5.7% expansion in 1H 2017. Our full-year 2017 real GDP growth forecast of +5.5% priced in moderation in 2H 2017.

MY: Malaysia CPI, July 2017

Continued easing in inflation
by Suhaimi Ilias

Economics Research

Headline inflation rate in Jul 2017 slowed further to +3.2% YoY (June 2017: +3.6% YoY), while core inflation continued to hover around 2.5%-2.6% since Feb 2016 (Jul 2017: +2.6% YoY; June 2017: +2.5% YoY). For Jan-Jul 2017, headline inflation rate was +4.0% YoY (Jan-Jul 2016: +2.5% YoY) and core inflation rate was +2.5% YoY (Jan-Jul 2016: +2.7% YoY). Maintain our full-year 2017 inflation rate forecast at 3.5%-4.0% (2016: +2.1%) and view that there will be no change in OPR this year.

With US markets ended lower overnight following President Donald Trump's threat to shut down the US government, FBMKLCI may extend its losses for a second consecutive day.

NEWS

Outside Malaysia:

U.S. New-home sales dropped in July after solid first-half run. A decline in U.S. purchases of new homes in July may be a sign the industry took a breather following an even stronger run of sales than previously reported, according to government data. Single-family home sales fell 9.4% MoM to 571k annualized pace, lowest in 2017, after 630k rate. Combined upward revisions to April-June figures were 46,000. Median sales price increased 6.3% YoY to USD 313,700. The slowdown as the second half got under way may reflect lack of affordability and low inventory, which have been constraints, especially for younger, first-time buyers who find it harder to get housing-related credit.

E.U: Euro-area factories feed best growth spell for economy in years. Surging demand for 'Made in the Euro Area' goods is feeding an economy that is creating jobs and finally seeing price growth accelerate. A Purchasing Managers' Index for manufacturing rose to 57.4 in August from 56.6 in July, according to IHS Markit. That's the highest reading in two months and compares with a median estimate for a slowdown in activity. Manufacturers recorded an "impressive" performance, with export orders surging at the fastest pace in more than six years. (Source: Bloomberg)

Japan: Wage hikes in China bring some jobs and factories back to Japan. Signs are emerging that surging wages in China are encouraging at least some Japanese companies to bring jobs, factories and businesses back home. According to an annual survey of about 3,000 firms by the Japan External Trade Organization (Jetro), among those that had recently moved or planned to move operations across national borders, 8.5% came back to Japan from China. In the first reversal since Jetro began asking the question in 2006, there were fewer cases -- just 6.8% -- going to China from Japan, according to poll released in March. On top of the narrowing pay gap, the depreciation in the yen due to record monetary easing by the Bank of Japan is encouraging more companies to make things at home and export. (Source: Bloomberg)

India: Record reserves turn costly cash pile for India Central Bank. As India's foreign-exchange reserves march toward the unprecedented USD400b mark, its central bank faces a costly conundrum. Banks are flush with money following the demonetization program last year, leaving them already struggling to pay interest on the deposits in an environment where loans aren't picking up. Costs to mop up these inflows have eroded the RBI's earnings, halving its annual dividend to the government. The surge in liquidity has pushed the RBI to resume open-market bond sales as well as auctions of longer duration repos besides imposing costs on the government for special instruments.

Petronas is weighing the options to develop and monetise its gas resources in Canada after shelving the plan for a multi-billion dollar liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in British Columbia.

Petronas is now looking at the possibility of working together with partners or parties to look at a pipeline that could be built to connect that area to the rest of Canadian market.
