Stronger earnings ahead

SPSB’s 1Q16 results were in line. We expect earnings to pick up strongly in 4Q16 on the completion of Parque Melbourne (Australia) and Battersea Power Station phase 1 (BPS1; London) projects which should see lumpy recognition. Property sales should also pick up strongly in 2H16 supported by MYR4.7b worth of new launches. We maintain our earnings forecasts, MYR3.86 RNAV-TP. Reiterate BUY.

1Q16: Below expectations

1Q16 net profit was below expectations due to reallocation of ad spend away from its print segment (New Straits Times Press) coupled with higher-than-expected newsprint cost. That said, consumer sentiment has showed signs of improvement. This augurs well for adex sentiment, which we believe will be further boosted by major sporting events scheduled in mid-2016. Maintain earnings estimates, HOLD call and MYR1.48 TP (based on 1.3x end-FY16 P/BV) for now.

Sizeable KVMRT 2 win

IJM clinched a KVMRT 2 elevated viaduct package worth MYR1.47b, lifting its outstanding orderbook by 21% to MYR8.4b. Although IJM would likely exceed our MYR2b job win estimate in FY3/17, the earnings upside could be offset by lower property sales. Hence, our earnings forecasts are unchanged, as is our SOP-TP of MYR3.60. Maintain HOLD; the stock is fairly valued.

Further slowing in growth…





Industrial production index (IPI) slowed in Mar 2016 to +2.8% YoY (Feb 2016: +3.9% YoY) but picked up in 1Q 2016 to +3.3% YoY (4Q 2015: +2.9% Yoy). Index of services (IOS) growth was relatively sustained at +4.7% YoY last quarter (4Q 2015: +4.8% YoY). Palm oil-related production slumped amid sustained value of construction works, pointing to lower agriculture and sustained construction. We estimated 1Q 2016 real GDP growth of +4.1% YoY (4Q 2015: +4.5% YoY).

NEWS


Outside Malaysia:

U.S: Mortgage rates for 30-year loans fall to lowest since 2013 as a disappointing jobs report helped drive investors to the safety of the government bonds that guide loan costs. The average rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage was 3.57%, down from 3.61% last week and the lowest since May 2013, Freddie Mac said in a statement. (Source: Bloomberg)

Brazil: Acting President Temer names cabinet on Rousseff exit, pledging to improve investment conditions and protect welfare programs in a bid to pull Latin America’s largest economy out of a crushing recession. (Source: Bloomberg)

E.U: Industrial production in the euro area ended the first quarter with a second monthly drop, weakened by falling output in consumer goods and capital goods. Output declined 0.8% in March from February, the Eurostat statistics office said. The reading follows disappointing data this week from Germany, France and Italy, the region’s three biggest economies. From a year earlier, production rose 0.2% YoY. The monthly drop halts a strong start to 2016 after production in January jumped the most in more than 12 years, and suggests that the euro area lost momentum toward the end of the quarter. (Source: Bloomberg)

China: Soured loans at commercial banks rose to the highest level in 11 years as defaults spread from small private firms to large state-owned enterprises in a weakening economy. Nonperforming loans rose 9% to CNY 1.39t (USD 214b) in March from December, the fastest increase in three quarters, data from the China Banking Regulatory Commission showed. Including “special-mention” loans, those where future repayment is at risk but that are yet to become nonperforming, the amount swelled to CNY 4.6t, representing 5.76% of total advances. (Source: Bloomberg)

Crude oil: Heads for weekly gain on U.S. output cuts, Nigeria outages. Nigeria said militant attacks have cut output by as much as 600,000 barrels a day and U.S. production has slid for a ninth week. Companies in Canada plan to restart operations at some oil-sands sites after wildfires shut production. Iran’s crude output has returned to pre-sanctions levels, the International Energy Agency said. Brent for July settlement climbed 48 cents to settle at USD 48.08 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The global benchmark crude closed at a 63-cent premium to July WTI.

UEM Edgenta: Eyes private hospital deals. It is eyeing hospital support services (HSS) contracts from private hospitals in the country to soften the impact of lower contribution from its Sabah and Sarawak businesses to earnings this year. To recap, the company reduced its ownership in One Medicare Sdn Bhd and Sedafiat Sdn Bhd to 40% from full ownership previously, under a new concession agreement with the government for the provision of HSS at public hospitals in the states. CEO Azmir Merican said the company’s profit before tax and revenue is expected to decline MYR45m and MYR280m respectively in the FYE Dec 31, 2016. (Source: The Sun Daily)
