1Q16: Dragged by higher cost

Ta Ann’s 1Q16 core net profit of MYR12m (-54% YoY, -74% QoQ) was below expectation due to higher-than-expected cost of production at both the timber and plantation divisions. We adjust our cost estimates and reduce our 2016-18 EPS by 14-21%. We expect earnings to play catch up in the following quarters on stronger FFB output in 2H. Maintain BUY with a lower MYR5.00 TP (-28%).

1Q16: In line

1Q16 results were in line. With two sizeable job wins YTD, its solid outstanding construction orderbook of MYR2.4b would lead to strong earnings growth. Meanwhile, HSL is still vying for more contracts to grow its orderbook further. Maintain our earnings forecasts and BUY call with an unchanged TP of MYR2.45 based on 12.5x 2017 EPS (mean valuations).

Recommendation:
Sell




Troubled retail business; D/G to SELL

1Q16 net profit was below expectations. YoY earnings were dragged down by the Retail segment’s thinner profit margin but partly offset by the Property Management Services segment’s growth. We cut our FY16-18 earnings forecasts by 23-25% and consequently lower TP by 20sen to MYR2.20 pegged to 22.5x FY17 PER (from 20.5x FY16 PER). Downgrade to SELL (from HOLD) in view of a challenging near-term outlook.

Set your eyes ahead

We believe that earnings have bottomed in 3QFY16 and should pick up in 4QFY16 on (i) higher RF shipment approaching a major smartphone launch in Sep 2016 and (ii) potential reversal of forex losses due to a weaker MYR. Alongside RF, stronger contribution from the other divisions (i.e. ISK, ISL, IIS) would take Inari back to a growth trajectory. With positive long-term prospects riding on higher adoption of 3G/LTE/LTE-A, we reiterate BUY on Inari MYR3.20 TP unchanged (15x CY17 EPS).

Starting the year right

1Q16 results were in line. Recovery in patient figures and higher occupancy rates at its Malaysian and Indonesian hospitals continue to support growth in earnings. However, increasing interest cost and losses from the Australian aged-care business could present downside risk to earnings. Maintain HOLD with an unchanged TP of MYR4.60.

Recommendation:

Seeking charters

1Q16 core earnings (+52% YoY) account for 26% of our full-year forecast. Marine vessel and 49%-owned FPSO operations were the key drivers to earnings, offsetting weaker performance at drilling and MOPU operations. The business outlook remains challenging but almost all the operating/ financial negatives/ challenges have been priced in. Securing new charters for its off-hire assets (i.e. MOPU and E3 barge) are short-term catalysts. Until then, Perisai remains a HOLD with a MYR0.27 TP.

Rising sugar costs

1Q16 results came in below expectations on higher-than-expected raw sugar costs and operating expenses. Positively, the government’s cessation of sugar imported through approved permits (starting Apr 2016) could help cushion bottom-line on the clawback of volumes. We have revised our FY16/17/18 earnings forecasts by –9%/-7%/-3%..

New Governor, same policy…





As we expected, BNM kept the Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) and the Statutory Reserve Requirement (SRR) ratio unchanged at 3.25% and 3.50% respectively. Maintain our OPR forecast range of 3.00%-3.25% this year, which implies possibility of OPR cut in the next quarter.

Outside Malaysia:

G-7: Gathering kicks off with competing views on boosting growth. Finance chiefs from the Group of Seven advanced economies arriving for meetings in Japan, sent mixed signals on how best to boost flagging global growth. While the host nation looks to favor an agenda that includes more fiscal stimulus to spur demand, a tonic that’s strongly supported by Canada, not everyone signaled a willingness to spend more. Germany’s finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble, who has previously pushed back against calls for new spending, said the G-7 meeting in Sendai, northern Japan, will cover different options for different economies.

U.S: Jobless claims dropped last week from a one-year high. Applications dropped by 16,000 in the week ended May 14, the biggest decrease since early February, to 278,000, a Labor Department report showed. The decrease was primarily due to fewer filings in New York after a surge the previous week that probably reflected difficulties adjusting for the spring break holiday. A subdued rate of dismissals, along with steady hiring, shows companies have confidence in the demand outlook. (Source: Bloomberg)

Philippines: GDP grew faster than most other nations in Asia in the first quarter, spurred by spending ahead of the May elections. GDP increased 6.9% YoY in the three months through March, the highest in almost three years, the Philippine Statistics Authority said. (Source: Bloomberg)

Australia: Added jobs in April and the unemployment rate held at a 2 1/2 year low as the number of people in part-time roles increased. Unemployment was unchanged at 5.7%, employment rose 10,800 from March and participation rate a measure of labor force as a share of the population dropped to 64.8%. The report signals that record-low interest rates are aiding a revival in industries like construction, tourism and education that’s helping soak up unemployed workers as a resource boom winds down.
