FW: AmBank Research - Ann Joo Resources: FY17 net profit grows 23% YoY BUY, 26 Feb 2018

 

 

STOCK FOCUS OF THE DAY

Ann Joo Resources: FY17 net profit grows 23% YoY                                           BUY

 

We maintain our BUY call, forecasts and FV of RM4.34 for Ann Joo Resources (AJR), based on 10x FY18F fully diluted EPS, in line with the average of its three midcycles’ PE multiples during Jan’12–Sep’13, Jun’05– Jun’08 and Sep’10 till now. AJR's FY17 core net profit of RM205.4mil met our forecast and consensus estimates.

 

The company’s FY17 turnover increased 17% YoY largely attributable to higher selling prices of various steel products (i.e. higher average international blended steel prices resulted from the ongoing reforms in China to curb steel production) coupled with a marginal increase in sales volume tonnage.
