MYR50,000 impact from TE3 fire

The source of the fire at TE3 on 20 Sep (link) was due to residual vapor in contact with process steam. The damage was burnt cables and the cost of repair should not exceed MYR50,000, according to the company. More importantly, the TE3 project commissioning has resumed and is on track for commercial start-up in 4Q17. The cost of repair is immaterial; therefore there is no change to our earnings forecasts and TP of MYR7.85 (pegged to global peer average 2017 EV/EBITDA of 8.2x). Maintain BUY.

Exit tank terminal business

Cash proceed of MYR193m is insignificant to the Group but the disposal is in line with the Group's strategy of disposing non-core assets. Though petroleum tanker rates fell sharply in Jul-Aug 2017, the hurricanes have led to a jump in tanker rates in Sep 2017, hence, 3Q17 earnings could be flattish QoQ. Maintain our earnings forecasts, HOLD call and SOP-based TP of MYR7.60.

Ups stake in Langsat CTF to 80%

We are positive on Dialog's plan to buy out MISC's 36% stake in the Tj. Langsat storage terminals. It is: (i) a vertical expansion, (ii) earnings accretive (+4-6%; MYR14m-18m p.a.), (iii) to add 4-5% (10-12sen) to our SOP-based TP, (iv) financially viable and (v) a further consolidation of Dialog's position in the Malaysia/SEA market. There is further room for growth beyond its 647,000 cu m capacity there, on 50 acres of land.

3QFY17: In line

Bison's 3QFY10/17 results were within expectations. YTD 9MFY17, it has 44 net store openings and is on track to meet its targeted 70 new stores for FY17. Elsewhere, we understand that the targeted completion of date for construction of its new food processing and distribution facility is unchanged - by end CY18.

China ops' 2HFY17 headline profit hit by one-offs

43.6%-owned VSIG's (1002 HK, Not Rated) 2HFY17 headline net profit was hit by negative one-offs. Nonetheless, excluding the exceptional losses, FY17 core earnings marginally fell short at 88% of our full-year forecast; VSIG is estimated to contribute ~4% to VSI's FY17 PATAMI. Pending VSI's results release, due on 27th Sep, we maintain our earnings forecasts. Our BUY rating and MYR2.80 TP (17.5x CY18 PER) are unchanged.

FBMKLCI Index: Consolidation Toward Critical Support Level
by Nik Ihsan Raja Abdullah

Technical Research

FBMKLCI fell 1.90pts to 1,769.14 yesterday, led by declines in banking stocks such as AMM and RHBBANK. The selloff in regional markets also weighed on the broader market. At day's end, losers outpaced gainers by 626 to 259. A total of 2.46b shares worth MYR2.36b changed hands. As geopolitical tensions between the US and North Korea heightened, investors may switch into risk-off mode today. The selloff in US technology stocks may also dampen interest on local tech stocks.

Outside Malaysia:

E.U: Draghi says Euro Area still requires ECB monetary support. Mario Draghi said the European Central Bank will keep as much stimulus as the euro-area economy needs when policy makers decide to adjust their EUR2.3tr (USD 2.7tr) bond-buying program later this year. Speaking in Brussels, the ECB President pointed to uncertainties about the medium-term outlook for inflation as he presented an upbeat picture of economic recovery after 17 consecutive quarters of growth and unemployment at the lowest level in eight years. He stressed there was no pre-set size for the central bank's balance sheet, which depended on the instruments the central bank was using and the state of the economy. (Source: Bloomberg)

Germany: Business confidence unexpectedly weakened for a second month in September, in a sign that Europe's largest economy is struggling to improve on its current brisk pace of expansion. The Ifo Institute's gauge of business sentiment dropped to 115.2 in September. While that's still near a record high, it's down from 115.9 in August. The Bundesbank said this month that third-quarter growth momentum will be "slightly" lower than in the first half. German businesses have been boosted by years of tailwinds from a weak euro and ultra-cheap borrowing costs, helping job creation that has cut unemployment to a record low and lifted consumer spending.

Japan: Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced a JPY2t (USD18b) spending package to expand access to education and cut waiting times at child-care centres. He made the comments shortly before his coalition partner said an election would be held, likely on Oct. 22. Abe said he would make use of revenue from a planned consumption-tax hike set to take effect in October 2019. Revenue from increasing the sales levy had previously been marked mostly to replace deficit spending on the social safety net. The plan would make pre-school education for children age 3 to 5 free, and provide free child care for those under age 2 for low-income families. (Source: Bloomberg)

S. Korea: Consumer confidence in September falls to 107.7 from 109.9. Households' inflation expectation for next 12 months unchanged at 2.6%, Bank of Korea says in a statement. The survey was based on responses from 2,013 households across the nation, conducted between 12-19 September. A reading below 100 indicates that pessimists outnumber optimists. (Source: Bloomberg)

Vietnam: Sees rising remittances helping keep currency stable. Vietnam expects rising remittances from overseas Vietnamese to help keep the currency stable, allowing the central bank to focus on supporting economic growth, a senior official says. Nguyen Hoang Minh, deputy head of State Bank of Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh, says remittances to the city are forecast to rise 10% to USD 5.5b this year. Rising remittances have helped to ensure enough dollar supply to meet demand from companies and individuals, while also allowing the central bank to build foreign-exchange reserves.
