AMMB Holdings (AMM MK)
by Desmond Ch'ng





Share Price:
MYR4.40
Target Price:
MYR4.40
Recommendation:
Hold




Hoping for topline growth

AMMB’s primary challenge has been in growing its topline. With renewed focus under its new MD and with various changes at the management level, the worst could be over in this regard. We await positive developments and upgrade the stock to HOLD from SELL, with a higher TP of MYR4.40 (+30sen) on a new CY17 PBV of 0.8x, ROE: 8.5%.

Turning water into coffee

F&B, while still being a slight drag in the near term, should see gradual improvement going forward. On the other hand, FMCG should sustain its sales growth momentum on its continuous expansion plans. Our earnings forecasts and TP (14.8x FY17 PER, mean) are unchanged.

TP Revision





Sunway (SWB MK)
by Wei Sum Wong





Share Price:
MYR3.03
Target Price:
MYR3.37
Recommendation:
Hold




Earnings on track

Sunway’s 1Q16 core net profit came in as expected. 1Q16 effective locked-in property sales were however below expectations due to the lack of new launches. This was cushioned by strong YTD construction job wins of MYR2b. We maintain our earnings forecasts but raise Sunway TP to MYR3.37 (+6sen) after lifting TP for SCG (+15sen). Reiterate HOLD.

Results Review





UEM Sunrise (UEMS MK)
by Wei Sum Wong





Share Price:
MYR1.00
Target Price:
MYR1.08
Recommendation:
Hold




A weak set of results

UEMS’ 1Q16 results were weak but earnings should pick up strongly in 2H16 with the completion of Teega and Arcoris projects as well as strategic land sale. Sales were slow in 1Q16 but should also pick up in the 2H with more new launches. Elsewhere, UEMS has entered into a JLDA with TM to develop a 1.7-acre land in the KL city centre. We maintain our earnings forecasts and MYR1.08 TP. Reiterate HOLD.
